Turn off <this trigger> or Turn off <Triggername>

Since I'm using Turn off <This trigger> massively. I want to know if there is a difference between using the <This trigger> and just Turn off <Triggername>.

I'm worried since I use <This trigger> so much in my map that when two of these kind of triggers are used, one of them won't be turned off.

Is this a real problem that I can come across or not?

And is it bad to use the triggername instead of <This trigger> ?

Thanks in advance.|||With using the function "This trigger" you turn of the trigger you put the action in.

When you specify to a trigger, you can turn of a trigger you want from any other trigger you put the action in.

So if want to disable the trigger you are putting the action "Turn off this trigger" in, that is a correct function to use, and will not hurt any other trigger in particular.

Memory leaks at point

Hello, I'm trying to fix the memory leaks in my map. But I'm not sure what kind of variable I need to use for the point:


Code:

Creep0 lvl1
    Events
        Unit - A unit owned by Neutral Hostile Dies
    Conditions
        CreepVariable[0] Equal to (Dying unit)
    Actions
        Unit - Suspend corpse decay for CreepVariable[0]
        Wait 20.00 seconds
        Unit - Create 1 Mugger (Level1) for Neutral Hostile at (Position of CreepVariable[0]) facing (Position of CreepVariable[0])
        Set CreepVariable[1] = (Last created unit)
        Unit - Remove CreepVariable[0] from the game

I tried to use this link I saw in an other thread, but I'm not totally understanding it: http://www.jx3.net/TDG/wiki/index.ph...ng_Point_Leaks

Thanks for your time.



EDIT: I fixed my own problem, so I no longer need help, but still thanks for your time.|||Here you go, just in case you might need it.


Code:

Creep0 lvl1
    Events
        Unit - A unit owned by Neutral Hostile Dies
    Conditions
        CreepVariable[0] Equal to (Dying unit)
    Actions
        Unit - Suspend corpse decay for CreepVariable[0]
        Wait 20.00 seconds
        Set memorypoint = (Position of CreepVariable[0])
        Unit - Create 1 Mugger (Level1) for Neutral Hostile at memorypoint facing (Position of CreepVariable[0])
        Custom script:   call RemoveLocation (udg_memorypoint)
        Set CreepVariable[1] = (Last created unit)
        Unit - Remove CreepVariable[0] from the game

Creep help

Hello , its me gain!

I dont know if anyone saw this sometime but all the creep i spawn for my hero to kill just run away from him like cowards....i have put cant flee and attack is set i wonder what could be doing that....|||If you remove a units attack, and do not specifically order it to go to certain point, it will flee when attacked, cause it can't attack back.|||yeah i get what you are saying but i checked the attack and i did order an patrol move but still they flee.

Something i saw what that after hitting the boundaries i made they stop running and finaly fight back.

Its really weird to explain If needed i can try to upload my map or a video perhaps.|||Sure, be my guest, you can also mail it if you want to keep it personal to "Hemlockdevelopment@gmail.com"|||Their also the possiblity of giving the unit a attack of 0 damage, 100 cooldown, and the same range of the hero [so they keep the same space from each other] it'll keep them from attacking the only other problem is that, the hero will auto retaliate from being attacked, causing him to stop doing somthing less important in the eyes of warcraft. [normally this wont happen inless it's a very unimportant thing]|||@Hemlock Sry i was away , I sent it to you now so you may have a look if u have the time. I tryed putting path blocker and all but it didnt resolve the issue totaly

@doomfox hum but i want them to attack me no just stay with my hero :D|||Sorry for the somewhat late response, I've had a look at your map and what is causing the units to flee, is because of these two triggers.

Creep Blocking

and

Blocking

What you basically say with these triggers, that if your those spawned units attack your hero, they have to move to Mid CP.

What you want to do, is register your hero creation first, like so


Code:

Hero creation
    Events
        Unit - A unit Finishes training a unit
    Conditions
        (Unit-type of (Trained unit)) Equal to Vampire
    Actions
        Set Hero = (Trained unit)

Then accordingly adjust those two triggers, to leave the attacked hero out of the function like the following.


Code:

Creep Blocking
    Events
        Unit - A unit Is attacked
    Conditions
        (Owner of (Attacking unit)) Equal to Player 12 (Brown)
        (Attacked unit) Not equal to Hero
    Actions
        Wait 0.50 seconds
        Unit - Order (Attacking unit) to Move To (Center of Mid cp <gen>)

and


Code:

Blocking
    Events
        Unit - A unit Is attacked
    Conditions
        (Owner of (Attacking unit)) Equal to Player 12 (Brown)
        (Attacked unit) Not equal to Hero
    Actions
        Wait 1.00 seconds
        Unit - Order (Attacking unit) to Move To (Center of Mid cp <gen>)

|||wow thanks alot !! im gonna make the change

Thanks for your time.

Edit : There is still one thing itching me , it mite sound stupid but i dont know how to make my hero revivable from the hero altar i made maybe its a trigger ill check that .|||Sorry for double post im having trouble with the image im trying to show...but i finaly made it.. yay

Ive been messing around with the trigger and i am able to make my hero revive instantly like so:



but when i try to make it with a timer , it end up not reviving the hero :

|||Step1: Remove both the event and condition in your first trigger, and you don't need to turn off the "initially on" function.

step2: Remove the wait function and the "Countdown Timer - Destroy" function.

step3: Add the event function "Time - Timer Expires" in your first trigger, and add your made timer which you made in your second trigger.

and voila.

Now for a short note on what you did wrong here.

- You create a countdown timer, and then 15 seconds later you destroy it, use countdown timers over waits, for they are more accurate anyway.

- Countdown timers can be compared with those cliche timerbombs you see in movies, when it reaches 0.00 it will explode, so with this timer, you can let an event register what will happen when it reaches 0.00 (which are you actions in your first trigger if you add step3)|||EDIT : I got it now! thanks Hemlock great support.

I'd like to ask a last question , do you have an idea how to raise to hero lvl cap from 10 to X

X being the level wanted.|||Your welcome.

Make sure you go to "Advanced -> Gameplay Constants" to set the hero cap to be at least higher than you would like to set it with triggers.

Then for the triggers, there are a couple choices, but ill present you with the most logical one.


Code:

Setup trigger
    Events
        Map initialization
    Conditions
    Actions
        Set X = 19

X is an integer variable and in this case set to 19, you can set this to the level.


Code:

Leveling cap
    Events
        Unit - A unit Gains a level
    Conditions
        (Level of (Leveling Hero)) Greater than or equal to X
    Actions
        Hero - Disable experience gain for (Leveling Hero)

If you want to make different level caps, for different units you might want to toy around a bit more with different values and unit variables.|||Nice !! thanks

How to disable unit control/make them return?

Hello guys i need a little help here :)

- idea:

how can i disable unit control ? i tried "ward" and yes it kinda works, but i still can give units orders to move. (basicaly i just want disable player control on units movement.)

Second how to make units return to theyr build position ? (idea - unit builded>starts wave>units move/attack, all creeps are killed>units returns to build position).

I just need action/condition to order them move back to original position they were builded.

Thanks !|||Why don't you give the unit 0 movement speed in object editor.

If you need the trigger it's:


Code:

Unit - Set (Triggering unit) movement speed to 0.00

And this trigger for their default position:


Code:

Unit - Make (Triggering unit) face Default building facing over 0.00 seconds

help with triggers

I need someone to help me make a trigger that lets you check income. also i want to know how to make it so only certain players can use certain triggers (triggers that change names)|||Perhaps you should be a little bit more informative, what income are you referring to? cause if you made the income with your own triggers, it's even easier to keep track of it really.

Your second question is even less understanding.

please rephrase your question for better help.|||ok ignore the second question I figured that out. For the first question i want to make a trigger that when i type the chat message "-income" i want the recource gain gold and recource gain wood to be displayed to the triggering player
