Hero Spawn & Trigger Modifying In Game??

Can anyone please tell me on how to accomplish the following, I really can't go further with my map until I implement this.

Hero Spawning
How do I make it so that upon choosing a hero from a tavern located in the corner of the map, the selected hero is spawned and the camera jumps to it at a specified region? Like the kind of feature you see in DOTA games?

Modifying Triggers In Game
Vague I know, but I am trying to make it so that upon the purchase of a "global upgrade" similar to teching, that certain triggers would be turned off and others turned on. Thanks for any and all help!!!

~Cheers

easy... make variables for all your units by doing this (if your a newb)... Make variable for arthas (for example) go to the golden X and click that. Then click the green x and type in arthas (for example) as the variable name. Then for variable type go to unit (unit). (Do this for every unit you are going to use).

Events: A unit finishes training a unit.

Conditions: Triggering unit equal to Arthas (for example)

Actions: Set Arthas (the variable you created) equal to last trained
Instantly Move Arthas (the variable you created) to region w/e
Pan camera for player (w/e player) to center of (whereever)

Thanks for the response, but I am having problems...

I have: Event: Unit - A unit Finishes training a unit

But for conditions, I can't find anyway to set the trigger unit equal to my variable. I made the variable named my hero with the type as unit... But no matter what condition I check, I can't find anyone that allows me to put "Triggering unit equal to my variable." All I can set is unit types for classification check :/

Thanks, one more question though: How do you set hero select times to zero? I.e: remove the delay it takes before you are able to buy a hero? I am not using any default triggers, and its on a unit with no build cooltime on a custom tavern made off a peasent, so no tavern stats should be causing it... >_<

Guess I responded prematurely.. with this trigger:

Event: Unit - A unit Finishes training a unit
Condition: (Triggering unit) Equal to FelStalker
Action:
Set FelStalker = (Last created unit)
Unit - Move FelStalker instantly to (Center of HMNAttackOrcBase <gen>)
Camera - Pan camera for (Owner of (Triggering unit)) to (Center of HMNAttackOrcBase <gen>) over 0.00 seconds

It just spawns the hero at the tavern... without taking it anywhere. And it overrides my hero color settings to the player that selected it >_<

Whats wrong?

I'm not quite sure on this but try something like


Untitled Trigger 001
Events
Unit - A unit Sells a unit
Conditions
((Selling unit) is A structure) Equal to True
((Sold unit) is A Hero) Equal to True
Actions
Set hero = (Sold unit)
Unit - Move hero instantly to (Center of (Playable map area))
Camera - Pan camera for (Owner of (Sold unit)) to (Center of (Playable map area)) over 2.00 seconds


The set hero part is a variable, just incase u didn't know.

I hope that helps a little



one more thing when ur setting the variable thing in ur original trigger...

set felstalker = (last created unit)
It might help if u change last created unit to (sold unit) i'm not 100% on this but w/e.

I'm sorry for spamming on the message board but.... i needed to see what u wrote while typing.

Event: Unit - A unit Finishes training a unit
Condition: (Triggering unit) Equal to FelStalker Here's your problem
Action:
Set FelStalker = (Last created unit)
Unit - Move FelStalker instantly to (Center of HMNAttackOrcBase <gen>)
Camera - Pan camera for (Owner of (Triggering unit)) to (Center of HMNAttackOrcBase <gen>) over 0.00 seconds

It shouldn't be triggering unit for one... because then WC looks at it as the Tavern that trained it. 2nd problem is the variable thing.

What should I put instead of that then?

Condition: (Triggering unit) Equal to FelStalker

change that to


Condition: (sold unit) Equal to Felstalker

Just tried that didn't work... still spawned hero right at the tavern ...
For a recap:
Event: Unit - A unit Finishes training a unit
Condition: (Sold unit) Equal to FelStalker
Action: Set FelStalker = (Last created unit)
Unit - Move FelStalker instantly to (Center of HMNAttackOrcBase <gen>)
Camera - Pan camera for (Owner of (Triggering unit)) to (Center of HMNAttackOrcBase <gen>) over 0.00 seconds



I also added a change unit color to brown (instead of the default player1 red) to see if the trigger was even going off... and it didn't change color. I'm clueluess`(

***Also, how do you remove the initial delay of buying heroes? So I don't have to wait over a minute each time to check to see it worked :/

i don't know how to do that, i could figure it out but i'm kinda in a hurry right now... but the problem with the other hting is ur event.... it says unit finishes training a unit... it should be unit sells a unit... or something along that line try that


also the color thing...... there might be a trigger... unit- change (sold unit)'s color to (color)



ALSO!!!!! make sure u change the action to set felstalker as (sold unit) or soemthing like that.... last created unit will not work... i don't belive so ne ways.

ALSO ALSO!!!!!! sorry about all this adding but make sure u don't use triggering unit in this.. it will not work.. use sold unit for everything, or a variable.

Changing the event to Unit - A unit Sells a unit still doesn't fix it
:o

Neither does changing the Action to: Set FelStalker = (Sold unit)

so it should look like this
Event: Unit - A unit sells a unit
Condition: (Sold unit) Equal to FelStalker
Action: Set FelStalker = (sold unit)
Unit - Move FelStalker instantly to (Center of HMNAttackOrcBase <gen>)
Camera - Pan camera for (Owner of (sold unit)) to (Center of HMNAttackOrcBase <gen>) over 0.00 seconds


i have to go now i'll be back on later good luck :god_help_us: :god_help_us:

Got it to work... but I didn't use any variables :/
