Special Towers

[EpiC_PandemiC]

So, there i was building my nice methane tower with ogre. sadly titan ran away form the base I was in, and i decided to put in on my hunter for transportation. I clicked the cancel button and my tower disappears, but it doesn't go back to an item  . Is this supposed to happen, or is it just with this one tower?

Note- this is after i built the tower. transmuted it, and was building it again.

This happens to every tower. It's happened to me before. It SUCKS.

This is an easy fix, doable is GUI.

Code:

Trigger
    Events
        Map initialization
    Conditions
    Actions
        Set arraySpecialTowers[1] = <INSERT TOWER HERE>
        etc.

Code:

Trigger
    Events
        Unit - A unit Finishes construction
    Conditions
        ((Triggering unit) is An Ancient) Equal to True
    Actions
        Unit Group - Add (Triggering unit) to SpecialTowers

Add unit type classification to the special towers "Ancient" (assuming no other units have that.)

Code:

Trigger
    Events
        Unit - A unit Cancels construction
    Conditions
        ((Triggering unit) is in SpecialTowers) Equal to True
    Actions
        Item - Create arraySpecialTowers[(Point-value of (Triggering unit))] at (Position of (Triggering unit))

Make the point value of that unit the that of the array number of the unit. Wallah, problem solved.

Thats a pretty bad triggering system.

Not to mention it won't work in the ID system because we use point values for xp.

Well, you could still trigger it pretty easily. The only problem is to check wether the tower is beeing constructed the first time (so you get resources instead of item) or built of an item (so the item is recreated).

you'd have to subract gold cause i think you get some gold when you cancel building stuff that costs gold

Not when it's the item ability (Try using Ivory Tower (Ladder) and cancelling it.
