I want a few buildings to be attacked and destroyed by infested terrans only, so no other unit should be able to attack the buildings. But I can't move any of the other units away from those buildings or destroy them, so is it possible?
What things could I try to sort off get that the buildings can only be attacked by infested terrans?

You could give all buildings (just example numbers) a HP of 500 and give the infested terran a damage of 501 damage or such.
Now you just need to add a trigger which sets all buildings HP to 100% (make sure no other unit makes more than 501 damage)

But the problem is, if there are multiple siege tanks for example, and fire at the same time, the buildings would still be destroyed.

I'd rather avoid it, but I wouldn't really mind if the buildings would be able to be attacked by other units, but they have to be destroyed by infested terrans only.

You know what hyper triggers are? They let all triggers without a wait handle very very fast, means even when 100 siege tanks are attacking the building and it's hp always been set to 100% the chances that they will kill the building are very low or it is not even possible.

I doubt that there is a way to see which unit killed what building.

I know about hyper triggers, I have to avoid them for this map though. But these are the kind of solutions i was looking for, maybe there are some other ways?

Make it invincible, and only when ITs are close does it become attackable. Add in the building hp/IT attack thing, and it should work 98 percent of the time.

I cant beleive that but I will test



What about make 3000 hp and 249 armor to Building and 9999 damage to infested? (infested has less then half damage to buildings as I know)

By the way - how much of units with maximum damage on your map you need to give 3000 damage to 249 armor-based Building?

You could do this, or you could just simply destroy the building every time an IT got close to a building, he wouldn't need to attack. You would either need to use a location over every building you wanted like this, or you could cycle through the buildings with one location, assuming that you don't need to use their functions.

Moving to an invalid location except when an IT is near should work.
Move the building to a location that's off the map, which makes most attacks on it useless. The computer tries to move it, but can't, and attacks are canceled. If you were using hypertriggers, this would be very effective, but you mentioned you can't. I don't understand why you can't, because there are several workarounds for wait blocks, but...

I may be wrong, but I think he also wants IT's to be able to auto-target it.

depending on what you're map is like, you could make the it's a seperate force, and make the buildings allied to everyone but those it's, and have an auto ally feature, so then te it's will auto attack, but nothing else can target the buildings to destroy them.

Wrong. Take 6 tanks with 100 siege damage each, move them in range, wait for them to stop, siege them all at once and watch the 500 hp building blow.
Hypertriggers "only" make triggers fire every 2nd frame and it's not hard to coordinate siege tanks to fire within one frame.

You never have to avoid them. Actually you should always use them! Makes every map so much better.
Don't be lazy, get rid of wait blocks. UMS Assistance is standing by to help you out with any problems on the way. SEN stands for quality maps!

I think so, so I will not test this:)


About hypers - they must have for every map, but if you have 8 humans in map and want to made wait triggers (not hypers) for all players - hypers may cause errors I think and can be avoided.

BTW = my Crazy CPU and TMA maps are without hypers (because I didnt know about hypers when made this maps and all humans have wait triggers in this maps).

And you remember, what lol was on first versions of Castle Fight with wrong hypers:)

Making the buildings only attackable when infested terrans are around is not really useful, the area is surrounded by lots of units and infested terrans are among them. Also, i can't put the infested terrans in another force, they should come from infested command centers of the player, which has the other units as well.

Then I think moving the buildings to an invalid location should do the trick.
Most units won't be able to target the building, but you can manually explode the infested at the buildings. Afaik splash damage is dealt even when always moving.

Or you could put locations on the buildings.
When an IT gets close, give it to the enemy of the building you want dead.

I dont know, thats just my 2 cents.
Also, since you want to avoid hyper triggers, do this:

Condition:
Switch 1 is set.

Action:
Wait for 0 seconds
Wait for 0 seconds
Wait for 0 seconds
Wait for 0 seconds
Wait for 0 seconds
etc.

Then copy and paste that trigger 2 more times.

Then add locations on the buildings you want only killable by ITs, and when an IT gets close to the building, enable switch 1.
Get it?

That wouldn't work, because hyper triggers take about a minute to turn off when the condition becomes false.

Use switch hypers (wiki) if you want to switch them off instantly.

What are values for invalid locations? -1 does not seem to work.

You can enter coordinates that are outside map boundaries. Or just move it to water. In case it's flying move it to a location with air units blocking the air space.

Can you explain why you can't use 3000 hp and 249 armor Buildings and 9999 damage of infested?
