The closest/easist option might be to make them all a distinct house, and use the # of buildings destroyed for that house event...
Of course this might mean you have to power the remaining structures with off-map power, but you could disable those as needed with a change house script too. _________________ http://www.moddb.com/mods/scorched-earth-ra2-mod-with-smart-ai QUICK_EDIT
LOL, that kind of sounds like what they have. The map has power plants off the map, but I am not 100% sure how that works... Its really weird, confusing, and complex. _________________ MadHQ's Graveyard - Click here!

It's not complex at all, you can attach the change house trigger to the off-map power, and trigger it at the same time the first trigger goes off for too few on-map power buildings. _________________ http://www.moddb.com/mods/scorched-earth-ra2-mod-with-smart-ai QUICK_EDIT
How does the game recognize destroy vs capture that way? LOL, I am not sure how they get all that to work...
Nor do I understand the change house aspect of it...
The original map must have (I am guessing) 40+ triggers for 8 power plants... Its kind of a maze that I dont really see how they get it to work.
An idea I am tinkering with, and seems to kind of work... I am not sure what pit falls it may have... Is kind of like what they have, and kind of like what you said, but there is no change house.
The idea I am tinkering with is to add...
CivyPower house
PowerHack house
In the maps text code (kind of like what they have): Add:
Code:
[BuildingTypes]
0=CAPOWR1
1=CAPOWR2
2=CAPOWR3
...
...
... for all 8
Each power-plant on map will be one of the CAPOWR# buildings with house == CivyPower house so the player can capture.
Then have 8 PowerHack house buildings such as 1x1 gagap off the map for each CAPOWR# .
Then have triggers with: 61 TechType does not Exist for each CAPOWR#, this does not seem to be house/capture specific, each trigger enables another trigger that destroys the off the map (gagap) building for each CAPOWR#.
Then have another trigger that watch's PowerHack house: 15 Destroyed, Buildings, #... for # (In this case I think 2 or 3 of the 8, I think the game has 4, but I am still working that number) of buildings destroyed.
So it would end up being 8+8+1=17 triggers... I really wish it was not so many...
But I am not a fan of having all the CAPOWR# code for each power plant...
There has got to be a better way... _________________ MadHQ's Graveyard - Click here!

LOL, then I was thinking about exploits in that mission...
For example, if I sell all buildings, then you just need 1 power plant, then time warp happens... Grand cannons come back, but nothing else.
But the odd thing I found was a bug... If you sell all buildings, after time warp, Tanya does not appear, and you dont get the aircraft carriers. So the mission is not complete-able. _________________ MadHQ's Graveyard - Click here!

But I guess at least what I have works... Its weird, but it works. _________________ MadHQ's Graveyard - Click here!

You have a unique house with say 8 NAPOWR, each with an attached trigger that has the condition of # of buildings lost. Off map you have a NANRCT providing power to the corret house, but with a different trigger attached that changes house to that unique house, away from the house that needs the power --- and start the scenario lose process, or trigger loss instantly, however you prefer.
