SC2Mapster

Hello my peeps,

As i was sick of waiting for a Test of Terran map in sc2 i kinda decided myself yesterday i would remake the map on my own. So im new to mapping and I have no clue at all, but i managed to incorporate some triggers for the map myself ( thanks to this site and the help here ) So now i have ran into a Problem and im googling my ass of since 1 or 2 hours and have found no solution.

All i really need is a Simple trigger that heals all Units of a Player that are in the Heal-Zone to a Certain amount of Health ( and re-heal them after half a second or more if they get attacked) but with a twist. The Players start with 20% Health on all Units and it increases by 20% everytime they kill 1 of the 4 Pylons in the Corners of the map. So first pylon it goes up to 40%, second to 60%, third to 80% and the last obviously to 100%

So im using the old map for refference and i usually look at the old triggers and try to find a way to do it in the Sc2 editor but here im kinda stuck so i need help.

I`ve made a Screenshot of the Trigger from Sc1 cause it shows best what i am looking for, here you go, http://img138.imageshack.us/i/triggerb.jpg/

Also i would like to Point out that i often run across some weird looking code here that look like some kind of triggers but dosnt really help me because i am doing all my triggers with the gui so keep the answers simple please (: dont know if that is necesarry to know though

ok so i have managed to solve the problem on my own. i`ve done it with a simple repeating action, didnt know why i havent checked that before i posted here. hafe fun mapping peeps

Great now the units get healed no matter where they go O_o getting frustrated at this nobody has some tips how to do this ?

hi i don't know if this is exactly what you need but onetwosc mad a excellent tutorial on a healing fountain just search in you tube "onetwosc"

I would recommend something to the effect of this:

Heal Zone
    Events
        Timer - Every 0.5 seconds of Game Time
    Local Variables
    Conditions
    Actions
        Unit Group - Pick each unit in (Any units in Heal Zone owned by player Any Player matching Excluded: Missile, Dead, Hidden, with at most Any Amount) and do (Actions)
            Actions
                Unit - Set (Picked unit) Life (Percent) to 20.0

• Under the event, the Timer event is a "Periodic Event" event; that means the trigger fires every x seconds where x in this example is 0.5.
• Set Unit Life (Percent) is found under "Set Unit Property".

If you want to ensure that only player, not enemy computer, units get healed, you'd tweak it to:

Heal Zone
    Events
        Timer - Every 0.5 seconds of Game Time
    Local Variables
    Conditions
    Actions
        Unit Group - Pick each unit in (Any units in Heal Zone owned by player Any Player matching Excluded: Missile, Dead, Hidden, with at most Any Amount) and do (Actions)
            Actions
                General - If (Conditions) then do (Actions) else do (Actions)
                    If
                        (Controller of player (Owner of (Picked unit))) == User
                    Then
                        Unit - Set (Picked unit) Life (Percent) to 20.0
                    Else

Another way would be to do essentially as OneSoga said, except change 'Unit - Set (Picked unit) Life (Percent) to 20.0' to "Unit - Set (Picked unit) Life (Percent) to pylonDestroyed(real variable, default or initialize value of 20.0)' or something similar, and then in another trigger, have it add a real value of 20.0 for each pylon that the player(s) destroy.

thx for the replys, didnt know why i didnt think of the timer every ... seconds of game time. Thanks to another help i finally understood the variables a little bit and have redone my heal Trigger with variables and other neat stuff. I would copy it all here but its all in German so i dont know if its any help.

But if someone is looking for a really good Healzone Trigger he can write it here and i will gladly translate the stuff in english.

Anyway really appreciate your help guys
