Alright guys, after looking over the tutorial of kills>>Cash Im still clueless. For one, I cant use Death counts because my Spawn triggers work with them to replenish units. Im looking for alternative Methods to Kills to cash. Stats!

I using multiple units that can be killed(probably around 30-50 depending...)
Infinite killings of them
Nothing special..I could use scores :/ I have no problem with glitching and getting wrong rewards. . .

tldr; alternative Kills to cash? pweeassse <3

EDIT: OK ok. ill look over it some more...

/me looked over it for a few minutes, played a few rounds, studied.
Where do I start. . .
. .but Im not here to complain. .
*grits teeth* I-dont-think-that-will-work. Ive got a lot of hangups over that style. . .Ill wait til morning, maybe ill think of something. sorry. . .Im weird, i guess...

EDIT EPIPHANY: OK OK OK, like i said, it would come to me..GYAHAHAHA! I have my spawns linked to my deaths. well..that made me think i cant use death counts NO. Its simple. Theres a delay..a TINY delay inbetween where the unit is killed and then counted as unkilled. in that time i can set it to wait a fraction of a second and give the rewards for deaths into acount. OR, i can set it so..only the opposing armys kills affect spawn...eventually though, the heros would outkill the armies, dwindling them to nothing...ok, then..at....ok..when it reaches a certain point: player has at most xxx units, spawn more units. OFCOURSE. its so simple! i wasnt hindered..I was blessed!
EDIT 2 zomg: Maybe I should explain why my death counter is being used. I have it set so at the beginning, 300 deaths are tallied for each side, this then triggers them to subtract deaths until it reaches 0, spawning a unit for each...then sending them off to the middle to fight. Well...I got confused and thought i had to find a way around that. I somewhat do, but i can still use the system AND if it glitches and heroes tend to permanently eat units..ill set a unit count onscreen. if it falls below a certain amount, ill spawn more units.


*deep breath* Ok..now how Do i plug in a system to make it work around the deaths recycling units?

We can't explain the universe, just describe it; and we don't know whether our theories are true, we just know they're not wrong. >Harald Lesch

I have no idea what you're talking about. Just use Neutral -> Neutral -> Cantina as a death counter.

Also you got 2 resources and custom score to store values.

if there is a delay, put in hyper triggers. and uve got a wierd system, why dont you just use 1 of them instead of both. im pretty sure both work. and it seem your just finding this out all on your own without any help lol

never make 2 systems, death counts and onscreen units or w/e u said. Just make 1 and it will do its purpose, dont purposely make it so you glitch it. you may have to fix it a couple times, but that will happen alot when making maps

Are you basically saying you need help on kills to cash perfect and currently u are using deaths for the computer for the kills system?

Okay, you should NEVER EVER EVER have problems with limited death counts, you have almost every unit, placeable, moveable, crashable or other to use as a death counter for ELEVEN PLAYERS. Each can be detected and manipulated individually. I've never ever heard of someone maxing out death counts.

(EDIT:
@Chubacca: No..its one system tht regulates more than exp..but the constantly flow of enemies
@Yoshi: Yea, you get it
@Pigy_G: you..dont get it :/ that would be INSANE though.

No no no, Just close this topic. i figured it out.

Im using "P7 suffered death at anywhere from Foes"="Spawn 1 Unit/subtract death" to recycle units so i dont have to worry about too many units and the same amount of units, forever.
i need to add, if i want the cash part: "If P7 suffered death of unit from P1-4(the players)"="Give Ore" The subtract death will click after the ore is given. this may give ore twice..but theyre basic units. it can glitch on useless units.

Ultraviolet -- That's strange, it looks like you targeted the base image file (sometimes people make the mistake of just using the imgur page link which doesn't work for embedding) but it still didn't work it sounds like.

ManCubuS -- Used : " [img=https://i.imgur.com/gpOjTuD.jpeg] "

ManCubuS -- Even tried with imgur, doesn't attach.

ManCubuS -- I should try a workaround, thanks! Sadly imgur is blocked in my country for some unknown reason.

NudeRaider -- I think SEN has trouble with https or hotlinking is forbidden. It certainly is nothing about the size, it just fails to get any size. You can get it working if you use imgur and include the actual image link for the img tag. Like this: [img=https://i.imgur.com/ddYqXZa.jpeg]

ManCubuS -- Hey fellas! Anyone knows why when I try to upload an image it says "failed to get image size"? I even tried making it so small. Imgur isn't working here and I tried postimg no luck.
