this probably isnt possible but is there anyway trigger wise to detect say when a infested terran gets killed versus when it attacks? For my map i want a different thing to happen for each one of those 2 outcomes.

When it gets killed the owner is added a deathcount for infested.

It's not easily possible to tell which one though if you have multiples.

You could continuously move a burrowed unit under each infested that will only be killed by 100% splash, and continuously set its HP to full. If that unit dies, then the infested has exploded, and you don't get fake "explosions" from splash killing burrowed units not belonging to that specific infested terran.

That would slow the infesteds down.

Not if he does it only every 3rd hyper trigger loop.

moving/creating a unit to the exact center of another unit causes the unit to not move for that frame. Infested terrans move at 6 pixels per frame, so if you move every 3rd, the IT will move 30 pixels rather than 36. Likewise if you do it every 3rd frame, there's a good chance the burrowed unit will go out of the area.

im only using one infested but it can be traded to 2 other players but wudnt modifying the death count also be added when it attacks since it dies?

Also if im using complex hypers, if that current player that i have one part of the trigger for leaves the game wud the hyper be affected? Wud it be differnt if used a 'Switch' in comparison to 'Always' ?

An attacking Infested or Scourge does not add to the death count. As for your second question, I can't understand. Try typing more clearly.

oh kk, sorry i wasnt more clear but what i meant was i have for complex hypers

under player 4 i have
Conditions:
Player 1 has suffered exactly 0 deaths of terran marker
Actions:
wait 0 ms
Modify death counts for player1: set to 1 for terran marker
wait 0 ms
Preserve.

and i have the same triggers for player 7 but 0 is 1 for conditions and 1 to 0 for actions, so my question was if player 4 leaves the game say a minute into the game, wud it effect the hyper triggers? Also, if there is no player 1 in the game wud it still work?

If player 4 leaves the game his triggers won't run so the hypers will break.

ic, well thanks for answermin my questions lol i know they must seem really noob

...then the whole thing becomes so incredibly easy using DCs to hold values for number of infesteds owned/killed and use DC arithmetic to figure out if it dies or attacks. The "slowing" effect is removed as well.
