HELP Detecting units from a group in triggerarea

[Spriterfight 10]

So i have this in the trigger condition:

({alive _x} count units test1) == ({_x in thisList} count units test1) 

and this in the units's init

test1 = group this;

The problem is it wont detect if the units from test1 are in trigger area.

These could help:

Nope.Not working

 

if the unit dies in the trigger area it activates the trigger but i dont know why 

[JohnKalo 657]

But if the unit dies in the trigger area it is already in the area so the trigger to fire is expected.

 

Maybe I got confused. What are you trying to do exactly? If you could more details would help. Maybe a simple:

NameOfUnit1 distance nameOfHelpingInvisibleHelipad < NumberOfMeters or NameOfUnit2 distance nameOfHelpingInvisibleHelipad < NumberOfMeters or ...

could work so as not to stall your project.

 

Edit: Or if you mean if he dies in the trigger a latter condition is fired although he is killed maybe this can help:

 

({_x in thisList && alive _x} count units test1)

not tested so it could just show an error.

You have no activation, so thisList is nil.

Do i need something in the activation?

Do you want thisList to exist?

[Harzach 2517]

If for some reason you don't want to use an activation, change your condition to:

({alive _x} count units test1) == ({_x inArea thisTrigger} count units test1)

It literally defies reality, which suggests that what is happening is not what you think. Share the mission, or a vanilla repro.

I will as soon a possible.It is a mp scenario I have 3 unit, the respawn point is in the trigger area.The trigger activates when  all of them are in the trigger area .The trigger is set to none but it works unlike in other scenarios.

here is the repo.Why the trigger activates if all of the units dies outside the trigger area?

it should activate only if the group members are in the trigger area dosent it?

okay i solved it

 

[Harzach 2517]

In your repro mission, the trigger does not fire, as thisList is nil.

Nil = Nil.

alive units = 0

number units in trigger area = 0

0 == 0 so trigger activates

 

Condition:

_units = units test1;
_alive = { alive _x }count _units;
_alive > 0 && { _alive == { _x inArea thisTrigger }count _units }

Only if there are units alive && num alive == num in trigger
