I apply a behavior to a tower to look for enemys and then apply the buff on the tower. On the disable validator i want to have a validator of the type Enumerate Area that look if there is close allies (if ally is close the seach for enemy units is dissabled) but i cant get ti to work :( Help me please!
Mabye its better to have the tower run a search event and check for nerby enemy units and if it finds then apply buff on it self IF no allys are close.
Ok i have gotten far with this and i think i know the way to go.
Each unit created is given by trigger a behavior that scans for towers in a small radius and apply a buff/behavior to that tower.
The behavior (periodic) try to add a buff with the validator that if no ally units are close then apply a behavior and a buff (check so that the tower is not guarded).
-The buff is a countdown and when reaching zero it should change the ownership of the tower to the one starting this sequence. (tower captured)
-The behavior is a periodic event that check so there is a enemy unit in range. If its not then it should cancel the buff mentioned above. (tower get defended)
I'm not 100% sure this is they way to do this.
I'm stuck however on the validator that check if there is enemy close or allys close. SO if sombody wanna help me with this then please go ahead with the map i provide.
As i understand i, i have to add a behavior to every unit in the game that should be able to take this tower?
Is it not possible o do the other way around, that the tower searches for any enemy unit in a radius and if it find any then it apply a buff on it self? It also have to check that no ally unit is in the same radius for it to be able to cast this buff. And keep that buff as long as a enemy unit is in the radius? The end effect could then be to give ti self to that unit or something but then again how does it know what unit it should give ti self to?
A sample map with a unit like this would be great (i'm not to familiar with this yet but learning)
Edit: man i suck badly at this. I cant even get halfway. I tried to give it a behavior to that it scans the area and do the effect "kill" on all units in the area but i cant even get that to work :/ I cant even get the first behavior to work as it should with the timers. Why cant blizzard release a instruction manual for crap like this :) at least a wiki for all terms like unit types and stuff.
If anybody can make an examle map with this unit it in then i would be very happy. Its the last thing i need on my map and then its pretty much done :)
I want to have a building similar to a xel'naga tower.
The map has 2 teams.
Team 2 own this tower for the moment.
It should take 30 secounds (countdown bar showing) for team 1 to "take" it and require a unit of the same alliance to stand with it the whole time. For example: Player 1 zergling goes to it, (if no enemy units are "guarding it) then and a 30 second timer start and will count down as long as any unit from player 1 alliance stand by it. If the timer complete then the tower is now owned by team one and no longer require a unit to stand by it.
If the unit capturing it get killed then the capturing timer stop and the owner of the tower does not change.
The tower can not be captured as long as a owning unit are close to it.
Please help me create such a tower because i have no idea what so ever how to make it. I don´t want to use triggers if possible.

To be honest, i dont really know what do to even after that post :P
I dont understand how the "tower capture" ability work either, it does not explain much.
