Ok, I've just come across something that pretty much scared me alittle bit. In a move I was making you have to have a certain amount of units built for it to initate the final section, otherwise it just exits and does nothing. Well, I've occured problems before where I had to make several different case statements just to keep it from stopping if someone made units but didn't have the correct amount and that was about 6 different triggers alone. Well you need 1 Carrier, 3 Scouts and 1 Corsair. I found this to be about 25 different trigger statements for just that. Is there an easier way to do this

I'm having difficulty understanding what you're actually asking.

What is wrong with a trigger like this:
Conditions:
Current player bring at least 1 corsair to location
Current player bring at least 1 carrier to location
Current player bring at least 3 scout to location
Action:
Do stuff.

I am assuming that such a trigger is completely not what you want, but I really have no idea what you actually do want.

That should be what you need.

The trigger will not execute until the player commands exactly that number of units.

Oh I know that. What I mean is. You have to make that number of units by the time a Spell hits a certain point, otherwise the spell doesn't go to the final part that acually does something, and just ends right there. Problem is, if you don't build that many it'll stop and keep going until you do make that many, and I don't want that. I know how to stop it from happening, but it requires a ridiculous amount of triggers for it. Is there a shorter way to do it?

Can you explain what you want better? You're doing a really poor job of articulating what you want to express. I read both of your posts and I don't understand a single thing you said.

Are you the guy that was making the map with combo spells? And you need the combinations which aren't a spell to do nothing, right?

There is the condition. I want the move to end immediatly if you don't have these requirements met and I know how to trigger it. But to do it, I'd have to do almost 15+ triggers saying



And its different for every single one. I want to know if there is a shorter way to do this.

And yes Vrael, im the one making cosmic brawl with the Combonation spells

For the second trigger, remove all the "brings exactly" conditions. Make sure this trigger is below your first trigger. Assuming when your first trigger runs, one of your conditions is changed (i.e. +1 deaths to Ultralisk Cavern), the second trigger will never be reached if they have all those units. If they don't have all those units by the time reaction hits 0, the second trigger will run, and you can put the actions to make it go straight to the end of the trigger set.

I'm not sure if I understand, but ...
You could set a switch or dc in the actions to mark that the conditions were met, and then in the following trigger test that switch/dc and if it is not set, then some other combination was used.

EDIT: Oh, Roy said the same thing. xD I should have read the posts a little more carefully.

The right way to do it is described in the above posts. To elaborate, you could do it like this:

Ah..Ok thank you very much. It works real nicely
