This trigger makes all units that currently cost population change the amount they cost to an amount of your choice. Remember that you cannot make a unit cost less than 1 population but it is still good. This means that you can now build 300 units that normally cost population which is very useful.

<Effect name="Make all pop costing units # pop">
      <Param name="p1" dispName="lowest player" varType="player">1</Param>
      <Param name="p2" dispName="highest player" varType="player">4</Param>
      <Param name="pop" dispName="amount" varType="long">1</Param>
      <Command>trQuestVarSet("PlayerID", %p1%);</Command>
      <Command>while(%p2%>=trQuestVarGet("PlayerID")) {</Command>
<Command>trQuestVarSet("ModProtoRandomQV", 0);</Command>
<Command>while(999>=trQuestVarGet("ModProtoRandomQV")) {</Command>
<Command>trQuestVarSet("moo",kbGetPopSlots(1*trQuestVarGet("playerID"), trQuestVarGet("ModProtoRandomQV")));</Command>
<Command>if(1*trQuestVarGet("moo") > 0)trModifyProtounit(""+kbGetProtoUnitName(trQuestVarGet("ModProtoRandomQV")), 1*trQuestVarGet("playerID"), 6, -1*trQuestVarGet("moo")+%pop%);</Command>
<Command>trQuestVarSet("ModProtoRandomQV", trQuestVarGet("ModProtoRandomQV")+1);}</Command>
      <Command>trQuestVarSet("PlayerID", trQuestVarGet("PlayerID")+1);}</Command>
   </Effect>

This is alot better than using modfiy all because it makes everything that doesn't normally cost pop cost pop which can be annoying!

Hey nottud, thanks for the great trigger; its going to help heaps. I was wondering if you could make a trigger "create unit at army" or if that's impossible maybe "deploy army at army" - if you could do that that would help heaps! If not, well thats cool too ~ Khan

I don't know if it is possible. If it is, I am the wrong person to ask since I suck at kb commands! I only manage to do basic ones or use someone elses triggers as a "kb command template".

(Mainly the kb queries I can't understand)

Your code:

trQuestVarSet("PlayerID", %p1%);
while(%p2%>=trQuestVarGet("PlayerID")) {
trQuestVarSet("ModProtoRandomQV", 0);
while(999>=trQuestVarGet("ModProtoRandomQV")) {
trQuestVarSet("moo",kbGetPopSlots(1*trQuestVarGet("playerID"),  trQuestVarGet("ModProtoRandomQV")));
if(1*trQuestVarGet("moo") > 0)
trModifyProtounit(""+kbGetProtoUnitName(trQuestVarGet("ModProtoRandomQV")), 1*trQuestVarGet("playerID"), 6, -1*trQuestVarGet("moo")+%pop%);
trQuestVarSet("ModProtoRandomQV", trQuestVarGet("ModProtoRandomQV")+1);}
trQuestVarSet("PlayerID", trQuestVarGet("PlayerID")+1);}

My way:

int playerID = %p1%;
while(%p2%>=playerID) {
int ModProtoRandomQV = 0;
while(999>=ModProtoRandomQV) {
int moo = kbGetPopSlots(playerID, ModProtoRandomQV);
if(moo > 0)
trModifyProtounit(""+kbGetProtoUnitName(ModProtoRandomQV, playerID), 6, -moo+%pop%);
ModProtoRandomQV++;}
playerID++;}
