Hello guys/Gals, i am a new map maker and will very likely be posting here a lot.

Currently i am trying to make an old favorite of mine called "Diplomacy", i need some help in triggers. I want to make it to where when you build a building in a certain region you get X ammount of money every X ammount of time. The reason i need it is too make it to where when you build a building next to a city you "capture: it so long as you have that building there. It also has to become neutral again when the building is destroyed.

I appreciate any help you can give me and if i was too vague in my explaination, please tell me so i can specify.

Untitled Trigger 001
    Events
        Unit - Any Unit Enters test
    Local Variables
    Conditions
    Actions
        General - While (Conditions) are true, do (Actions)
            Conditions
                (Triggering player) == 1
            Actions
                General - Wait 22.0 Game Time seconds
                Player - Modify player 1 Minerals: Set To 1000

something like that would work just fine =)

Well, I can't answer your post, but I can give you an achievement. Here you go! (This is my new thing, give people achievements.)

im stealing that sig! =D

Ok, so yeah that works, but when the building is destroyed/leaves i keep getting the money. Also i would like it to be ONLY a building and not any unit, if you could re-do the trigger to match that it would help a TON

you bet. working on it right now. will update post when done, just refresh page. here

Untitled Trigger 001
    Events
        Unit - Any Unit Enters Revive point
    Local Variables
    Conditions
    Actions
        General - While (Conditions) are true, do (Actions)
            Conditions
                (Owner of (Triggering unit)) == 1
                (Unit type of (Triggering unit)) == Pylon
            Actions
                General - Wait 30.0 Game Time seconds
                Player - Modify player (Triggering player) Minerals: Add 1000

In this case, I made it if the building is a pylon, you can simply change that. it should work perfect now.

Thanks, works perfect now

Your welcome, I also just found the property to just check if its a building (instead of a specific one). hope your game turns out good =)

lol you should post on here what property that is. because ive searched for it for a good 5 days, had to settle for another way to conquer cities and im quite satisfied. with the end result.

robert is your map up yet?

Dude! Check the date on the thread before posting xD (And the last login of robert)

I tried using that trigger, but found problems with it. It detects the pylon before its constructed. How can I make it so that the trigger grants resources only after the building had finished construction?
