While working on one of my maps, I was thinking of how annoying it was that if you wanted all units except for maybe 1 or 2 to set off a trigger, you have to make the trigger for every possible unit. My idea is to have new triggers that will have an "Except For" choice. example, you could have a trigger like:
'Current Player' brings 'atleast' '1' 'anyunit' to 'marines location' 'EXCEPT FOR MARINE' ; Create '30,393,183,000.32723478' 'Marine' at 'marines location'
you could have new triggers such as:
Conditions
Bring Except For
Command Except For
Kills Except For
etc. the unit would probably only ANY UNIT, Men, Buildings, etc (or maybe you could have Terran, Protoss, Zerg, if possible?) by default, but change the 'except for' to anyunit u want (or more than one ? make it so you can have more then 1? if possible)
you could alsoe have some actions like 'Give Except For, Order Except For,' and others.
I dont know if this is possible, considering i have no expiriance in programming, if you would need UEDs (which then u cant use the actions), or mods, or w/e. but would be REALLY usefull to mapmakers.
Just a thought

Or..
couldn't you just make two conditions.
'Current Player' brings 'atleast' '1' 'anyunit' to 'marines location'
'Current Player' brings 'exactly' '0' 'marine' to 'marines location'

What MindArchon said. It's not really a concept.

i am going to open up the topic again. if you still disagree and think im stupid, u can close it again and i wont reopen it. i just want to say this:
Well yes Mind Archon that could work, but with ur way that means you CANT have that unit there. other way u can, it just wont do anything. it would just be less hecktic
like for example, if you wanted a trigger that if you commanded enough units excpet for a certain 1 or 2 that might be used in like selecting something, then u cant do ur method.
I think its a good concept. it would help get around some bugs. but like I said if you still think its stupid then i wont reopen it

And Except option would be extremely useful...
As would a "Or" option.

Oh yes, "or" would also be very useful.

You can't use EUDs to modify Starcraft's trigger logic engine.

Too bad you can't create new triggers though. 
Even with programming I think.

Concepts is for showing off concepts you came up with. Wishes for triggers don't go here.
