How do I make....(trigger problems)

[Gemini_Bloodian]

I'll be coming here often to ask how to make various triggers, but only several triggers or so. Here is my first request:

How do I make a renting trigger?

Like, a person brings thier unit to the unit beacon(overlord), money is subtracted, then they keep it for 1 minute for example.

I haven't messed with sC for a long time, but I'm pretty sure this is an easy trigger:

[Conditions]
Current Player Brings Exactly 1 Unit To Beacon

[Actions]
Subtract 1 Minerals From Current Player
Wait 1000 Milliseconds
Preserve Trigger


I'm pretty sure this is correct. You can, of course, adjust the milliseconds and the mineral subtraction.

Sounds simple enough. Thanks alot. The map is currently under-construction, so I'll post here actively.

Renting? Like Rent a Unit? Or a Mercenary?

Con
- Current Player brings Atleast 1 Overlord to 'Location'
- Current Player accumulates atleast 1 minerals

Action
- Modify resourses for current player: Subtract 1 minerals
- Create 1 zergling(or whatever unit) at 'Location1' for current player
- Wait 10000 milliseconds (1000 = 1 second)
- Remove all zerglings for current player
- PreserveTrigger

Dont forget to include the cost.

"Current player accumulates at least one mineral" (added to the conditions in the trigger i quoted)
