Hi

I'm trying to make a trigger that will allow me to have a melee attack for a dark templar, So I need to meet the following conditions:

if Mouse 1 is clicked && number of enemies within short distance > 0:

• Attack unit within short distance once
• or attack all units within short distance

else if Mouse 1 is clicked:

• Play attack animation

I'd also like to have it so that you can't button bash the attack button so the dark templar isn't swinging his sword/scythe all around the shop, AKA you can click it as many times as you want but the animation will only recycle when the animation has stopped.

Any help would be appreciated. I'm a long time coder but the syntax for the galaxy editor is really forign to me.

Perhaps something like this.

Melee
    Events
        UI - Player Any Player clicks Left mouse button Down.
    Local Variables
    Conditions
        Trigger Running == false
    Actions
        Variable - Set varTriggerRunning = true
        General - If (Conditions) then do (Actions) else do (Actions)
            If
                ((Closest unit to (Position of varDT) in (Units in RegionMeleeRange having alliance Enemy with player 1 matching Excluded: Missile, Dead, Hidden, with at most Any Amount)) is in RegionMeleeRange) == true
            Then
                Unit - Order varDT to ( Attack (Closest unit to (Position of varDT) in (Units in RegionMeleeRange having alliance Enemy with player 1 matching Excluded: Missile, Dead, Hidden, with at most Any Amount))) (Replace Existing Orders)
                Variable - Set varTriggerRunning = false
            Else
                Animation - Play Attack animation for (Actor for varDT) as Default, using No Options options and Default Time blend time
                General - Wait 1.694 Game Time seconds
                Variable - Set varTriggerRunning = false

Have a region(In this case named RegionMeleeRange), shaped as a cone, attached to the unit(In this case varDT) with a slight offset so it is infront of the unit. Also have a variable(In this case varTriggerRunning), to make sure the trigger isn't ran multiple times.

@7MM3: Go

OK, I've put it all together but it doesn't seem to work. To prevent my DT from running off like a nutter killing everything within range i've had to set the default aquire to none. Would this be disabling the trigger?

Edit:- Managed to get it working now but the animation is still doing that weird spam thing.
