So this is what I feel is a silly question because I would think that it is an easy process and I believe I have done it before somewhere somewhen but
How do you refill a carrier w/ interceptors after a set amount of time?Here are the current triggers that I am using, but it doesn't seem to work:
Players: 4
Conditions: Always
Actions: Modify deaths for Player 4: Set to 280 for DC Carrier
Players: 4
Conditions: Player 4 has suffered atleast 1 deaths of DC Carrier
Actions: Modify deaths for Player 4: Subtract 1 for DC Carrier
Preserve
Players: 4
Conditions: Player 4 has suffered atmost 1 deaths of DC Carrier
Player 4 commands atleast 1 Carrier
Actions: Add at most 5 to hangar for all Carrier owned by Player 4 at Anywhere
Modify deaths for Player 4: set to 280 for DC Carrier
Preserve
This is not working however, Anyone got any ideas?

None.
Get rid of the first trigger completely, make the death count in the last one "at most/exactly 0" (doesn't do anything but it will make the death count have to complete by that much more), and make sure you have hyper triggers. -- Scratch that
EDIT: Try "Current Player" instead of "Player 4" and make sure you have hyper triggers.

But if I get rid of the first trigger, the counter wont even start, because wont the deaths just default to 0? Oh but then if I say exactly zero on the last one it will work? But sometimes I've heard not to do exactly 0 because it can skip.
EDIT: Current player on all of them?
None.
Yes, try replacing "Player 4" with "Current Player".
Why are you using P4's carrier deaths as the death counter? Can P4 carriers die? Take in mind that every time a P4 carrier dies it'll add 1 to that DC. I suggest using an unused unit instead, like Cave-in or Cantina.

Also, you could make it only two triggers by counting up, eliminating the need for the initial setting trigger (not that it really matters)
Players: 4
Conditions: Current player has suffered atmost 279 deaths of DC Carrier
Actions: Modify deaths for Current player: Add 1 for DC Carrier
Preserve
Players: 4
Conditions: Current player has suffered atleast 280 deaths of DC Carrier
Current player commands atleast 1 Carrier
Actions: Add at most 5 to hangar for all Carrier owned by Current player at Anywhere
Modify deaths for Current player: set to 0 for DC Carrier
Preserve

None.
If you disabled building of interceptors for the player that owns the Carrier, you can't add interceptors to the Carrier via trigger.

riiiight... That drove me almost crazy once.
And btw. you
don't need the first trigger. The dc will start with 0, so the add interceptors trigger (3rd one) will fire and set the dc to 280. If you can't have it firing at map start then of course you
do need the first trigger.
However this has nothing to do with the trigger not working...
Oh and you don't
need to use Current Player (especially as trigger owner you
must not set it to C.P.). P4 will work just fine, however C.P. is more elegant and thus you should make it a habit to use it whenever possible. Helps copying triggers to other players, too.
BTW - can you add 8 hangar to carriers by triggers, if cappier capacity is not researched?
Same about reaver.
None.
Nope you can't. It adds only the max amount it can hold.
None.
