Transmission

Ok in the transmission field I have it set up like this:

Send a transmission from [random unit in heros] named [name of triggering unit].

The [name of triggering unit] part dosen't work :\

I tried changing it to [name of picked unit] and a few other options. Does anyone know how to link these two together?

Like make the name of the [random unit in heros] appear in the transmission.

Hopefully emote_confused

I think you must make two actions
One that sets the hero into a unit variable, and then another which makes a transmission with that unit.

Triggering units are those spoken about in the events, not an action.

It's "Pick 1 unit in (Your Variable) and do Send transmission from picked unit using Picked units name" or something like that, the trigger is correct, the typing is not :P.

Ok. Well, the only thing you can do is [Pick every unit in (Your Varialbe) and do action]. I see how it works the way you said it, but is there a way to do the "Pick 1 unit" part??

Something like "Pick random unit from unit group"

Set a variable to random unit from (Unit Group) whatever your group is. Then have it send a transmission from the variable unit with the name of the variable unit.
