hweiqiang	hi people. its me again,you guys really helped me alot and i'm 75% through my way making this map. but i have a problem and i hope you can help me. how do i count a specific tower using a variable. for example,i have TowerX, and everytime a player builds another towerX,there is a variable supporting it to help it count. anyone got a idea how can i do that? :D

Hi again

Version 1:

Trigger:

Events

Unit - A unit Finishes Construction

Conditions

(Unit-type of (Constructed structure)) Equal to TowerX

Actions

Set SomeCount = (SomeCount + 1)

Trigger:

Events

Unit - A unit leaves (Playable map area)

Conditions

(Unit-type of (Constructed structure)) Equal to TowerX

Actions

Set int = (int - 1)

Version 2:
When ever you need the tower count do this a line before

Trigger:

Set SomeCount = (Number of units in (Units owned by SomePlayer of type TowerX))

darkwulfv	Yes you can. There's an action (or subset of an action, or whatever) that lets you convert an integer into part of a string. Just do a text message action and in the text argument, look for "Conversion - Convert Integer to String".
