Okay, so there's supply depots that are built at a location, and every second you get 50 minerals for having at least 1 supply depot every second at the location. I know of no way to do this except with preserve trigger, and then it doesn't stop! I want it to happen more than once, and if the supply depot is destroyed, then the mineral flow should stop. Can someone help me? Here are the triggers I have so far in testing.

Thank you. Now the question is, how will we turn off this trigger once the supply depot is destroyed and reset it.

Look carefully at the condition, and you'll see that your question was answered aleady.

Everyone, move this topic, it is not a concept thread, it's a mapping assistance thread.

For a trigger's actions to take place, a series of user preset conditions must first be determined to be true, therefore, once the condition I just quoted ceases to be true, the trigger will cease to run. The preserve simply allows someone to rebuild a supply depo at a later time, in which case the condition returns to its original state: true. (at this point, the trigger will begin to run once again.)
