Lives

[Ryder123]

can any1 tell me a trigger for how to count lives?

Well, there is no single trigger that can do this. I assume your making a bound, since you asked about it, and when you asked you asked to make level-up bound, so I assume that you mean "How do I have a lives system in a level-up like bound when custom score is already used?"

Well, to do this, its not that hard, but its a bit limiting. Players are not allowed to kill things so all permanent enemies (non-explosions) should be invincible, and their bounder units have to be invincible so they cant kill each other. Thats why most people dont use this system when custom score is taken up. However, if Custom is not already used or you dont plan to use it, change all kills score to custom and create the units normally and not invincible. Another way around this is to give all units that attack (like that ultralisk in Heaven bound) about an attack strength of 250 and give each ling/bounder unit 500 hp and have them only do 1 damage. This does not take away the need for invincibility on non-bounder units.

Trigger 1:
Players:
bounders
Condition:
Always
Actions:
Modify kills score for current player: set to (amount of lives)

Trigger 2:
Payers:
Bounders
Condition:
Current player brings at most 0 (bounder unit)s to anywhere
Current player has a kills score of at least 1.
Actions:
Create 1 (bounder unit) for current player at location (bounders spawn) with properties: Invincible
Modify kills score for current player: subtract 1
Preserve trigger.

Now, if you did use custom as levels and need to display lives and levels, just have a trigger like this instead of the old leaderboard thing:

Players:
Bounders
Conditions:
always
Actions:
Display leaderboard for most custom score
Wait 7500 miliseconds
Display leaderboard for most kills score
wait 6500 miliseconds
Preserve trigger

This is assuming you dont have a hyper trigger, if you do, change the 6500 wait to 7500.

I might've gotten something wrong, so if anyone sees a msitake shout out please. Also, if I've answered the wrong question and this isnt in relation to your other bound question, can you specify more next time? I'll re-asnwer it the way you need it.
