I've been having a problem fow a while now with making a trigger so that when my unit dies it respawns in a random location. I know how to make them spawn randomly an here is how I do it.| Trigger |
| Description: |
| Randomize switches |
| Players: |
| ¤ Player 1 |
| Conditions: |
| ¤ always |
| Actions: |
| ¤ Randomize switch spawn1 |
| ¤ Randomize switch spawn2 |
| ¤ Randomize switch spawn3 |
I do this to randomize the 3 switches that will decide which out of the six locations my unit may spawn at.
Here is how I make my unit spawn
| Trigger |
| Description: |
| unit spawn 1 |
| Conditions: |
| ¤ Player commands exactly 0 men |
| ¤ Spawn1 is set |
| ¤ Spawn2 is set |
| ¤ Spawn3 is set |
| Actions: |
| ¤ Create 1 unit at location SPAWN 1 |
| Trigger |
| Description: |
| unit spawn 2 |
| Conditions: |
| ¤ Player commands exactly 0 men |
| ¤ Spawn1 is cleared |
| ¤ Spawn2 is set |
| ¤ Spawn3 is set |
| Actions: |
| ¤ Create 1 unit at location SPAWN 2 |
| Trigger |
| Description: |
| unit spawn 3 |
| Conditions: |
| ¤ Player commands exactly 0 men |
| ¤ Spawn1 is set |
| ¤ Spawn2 is cleared |
| ¤ Spawn3 is set |
| Actions: |
| ¤ Create 1 unit at location SPAWN 3 |
| Trigger |
| Description: |
| unit spawn 4 |
| Conditions: |
| ¤ Player commands exactly 0 men |
| ¤ Spawn1 is set |
| ¤ Spawn2 is set |
| ¤ Spawn3 is cleared |
| Actions: |
| ¤ Create 1 unit at location SPAWN 4 |
Ok i think you under stand how those work
so im not including all the trigsNow the problem is that when 1 of my units dies it somtimes creates more than 1 unit. Usually around 2 or 3. I think this happens becasue all the triggers accur at the same time. and Yes I tried Hyper Triggers. I also tried putting a 'wait' before randomizing the switches but that didnt work either.
I hope you understand my problem and thankyou for your help.
Ohyeah, Special thanks to Oo.Skillz.oO for showing me how to make random trigs

i think it has something to do with the condition of Always in the randomization trigger. instead of using Always, try using Player Commands At Most 0 Unit.

Most likely your trigger is fireing for multiple players. But it is kinda hard to tell cause you abreviated the important part leaving it out compleatly.
Make sure in your Bring Condition and you Create Units Action both you use "current player" instead of specifiying a player.
Secondly randomizing 3 switches yeilds 8 results not 6:
Clear Clear Clear
Clear Clear Set
Clear Set Clear
Clear Set Set
Set Clear Clear
Set Clear Set
Set Set Clear
Set Set Set

I noticed that it gives 8 results but that doesnt really matter, anyway I have it working now
. what I suggest to anyone doing this is to make your hyper tiggers for the force and not for specific players. Thats about it.. thanks for your replywait scratch that still doesnt work lol.

if its creating more than 1, its firing for several players. common problem. just make sure that there is only 1 player or group that own the trigger. meaning that you cant have moire than 1 of the player boxes checked.
