Staredit Network -> UMS Assistance -> [SOLVED] Preserve Trigger Issue

Report, edit, etc...Posted by joscpe on 2006-11-12 at 02:30:25

I made a trigger for creating 4 firebats when i make a bunker and they go in the bunker, to make it do this for everytime i make a new bunker i need to preserve trigger but when i do this it makes 4 firebats rapidly and wont stop. How can i make it only repeate when i make a new bunker?

I think i know the problem but i dont understand how your trigger is set up, can you write it out please?

Somehow you need to make it that the conditions are no longer met once the firebats are in the bunker. Perhaps you could make your map like Tower Defense, where you build, say, a Supply Depot and it is then removed and replace by a bunker with units.

I'm not sure about this, but does the Bring condition detect units in bunkers? If so, then just add "current player bring exactly 0 firebat to location" to your conditions.

do what DTBK said. it WILL work. and also, be careful of wait blocks since you're using a wait.

Your condition is never cleared. That "hideout" remains where it is and thus the trigger will fire again and again.

You can a) get rid of that bunker or b) don't start off with a bunker in the first place, but replace it like DTBK mentioned.

have your triggers detect for a supply depot and replce it with a bunker in your trigs...

I was under the impression that, like units in dropships, units in bunker satisfy the Bring condition.

Remove the old building, place a bunker, place units, use AI order enter bunker, then disable the bunker if you don't want the unit leaving it.

Its working now, but how can I disable the bunker? Also how do I change the name of the building when you click Build?

Thank you!!

I have a small problem though, 1 firebat is too slow to go in the bunker and it locks, I have tried resizing the location and changing the wait, its now at 1100 miliseconds. He still doesnt make it in...

Report, edit, etc...Posted by Falkoner on 2006-11-13 at 00:40:48

make it so that there has to be 4 firebats in the location the bunker is centered on for it to be disabled.

A) is not true
If you get rid of the bunker IE kill/remove then the units inside will no longer be loaded there. If you move the bunker it is still in the location "anywhere"

Report, edit, etc...Posted by spinesheath on 2006-11-13 at 12:22:34

I didn't specify as of how to get rid of it. You have to see it in a broader sense; what I wanted to say is that the bunker must not be fulfilling the condition anymore - this might also involve changing the condition.

Can't people understand laziness?

They can when it doesn't mislead them, spine

"At most" doesn't recognize units in bunkers, while "Exactly" does. Funky, huh.

Really sure about that?

That would be REALLY weird
