-Revive Command Triggers

[Arabidnun]

I am here to tell you how to put a command -revive into your maps, b/c i have taken enough out of wc3edit.net, its time to put something of my knowledge back in!

First, start off with creating a variable:

Variable Name(i picked ReviveGroup)
Make it Unit Group With Array 1

The images should look like this in triggers



Just continue the Trigger till you get to the amount of units in your map

Then, make something like this for the -revive command



And that should be it! I use it myself and haven't had any troubles with it, just post your problems here and i will try and fix it, Thanks ^ ^

EDIT!: one second, the images arent coming up

EDIT2: Here is a a Map of the tested trigger you can see for yourself

Just a few comments.

You can simplify your entire trigger to this:

Code: Select all

ReviveHeroVariables
    Events
        Unit - A unit Dies
    Conditions
        ((Dying unit) is A Hero) Equal to True
    Actions
        Unit Group - Add (Dying unit) to ReviveGroup[(Player number of (Owner of (Triggering unit)))]

[(Player number of (Owner of (Triggering unit))) will detect for us which player the hero belonged to.

Also, we don't need the condition "(Player <#> (<Color>) slot status) Equal to Is playing" because a player who isn't playing won't be able to type "-revive" anyway.

The following trigger also has two flaws:

Code: Select all

CommandRevive
    Events
        Player - Player 1 (Red) types a chat message containing -revive as An exact match
    Conditions
        ((Triggering player) Current gold) Greater than or equal to 200
    Actions
        Hero - Instantly revive (Random unit from ReviveGroup[1]) at (Center of (Playable map area)), Show revival graphics
        Player - Add -200 to (Triggering player) Current gold
        Wait 2.00 seconds
        Unit Group - Remove (Reviving Hero) from ReviveGroup[1]

First, (Center of (Playable map area)), is a location leak. Secondly, if you type -revive and your hero isn't dead, you still lose 200 gold.

To fix that, you should change the code to the following:

Code: Select all

CommandRevive
    Events
        Player - Player 1 (Red) types a chat message containing -revive as An exact match
        Player - Player 2 (Blue) types a chat message containing -revive as An exact match
        Player - Player 3 (Teal) types a chat message containing -revive as An exact match
        Player - Player 4 (Purple) types a chat message containing -revive as An exact match
        Player - Player 5 (Yellow) types a chat message containing -revive as An exact match
        Player - Player 6 (Orange) types a chat message containing -revive as An exact match
        Player - Player 7 (Green) types a chat message containing -revive as An exact match
        Player - Player 8 (Pink) types a chat message containing -revive as An exact match
        Player - Player 9 (Gray) types a chat message containing -revive as An exact match
        Player - Player 10 (Light Blue) types a chat message containing -revive as An exact match
        Player - Player 11 (Dark Green) types a chat message containing -revive as An exact match
        Player - Player 12 (Brown) types a chat message containing -revive as An exact match
    Conditions
        ((Triggering player) Current gold) Greater than 199
        (Number of units in ReviveGroup[(Player number of (Triggering player))]) Greater than 0
    Actions
        Set TempUnit = (Random unit from ReviveGroup[(Player number of (Triggering player))])
        Set AntiLeak_TempPoint = (Center of (Playable map area))
        Hero - Instantly revive TempUnit at AntiLeak_TempPoint, Show revival graphics
        Custom script:   call RemoveLocation(udg_AntiLeak_TempPoint)
        Player - Add -200 to (Triggering player) Current gold
        Unit Group - Remove TempUnit from ReviveGroup[(Player number of (Triggering player))]

I appreciate your desire to help out.

Just trying to help, I will edit my Attachment with your Anti-leak help and it will be ready for everyone to use ^ ^

EDIT: The anti-leak, er? What does that exactly do, I actually myself am using not center of map, i am using a region, What about leaks there?

Then set the variable to the center of the region.

There's many tutorials on memory leaks.
