How can I make a unit shot and walk at the same time?

[WarCoelho]

The title already says all.How can I make a unit shot and walk at the same time?Is this possible?I need it for my STAR WARS map,i want to make the X-Wing shot and walk at the same time,like in the movie.

Use a phoenix fire ability.

 

[Eleandor]

Not possible.

What you can do is simulate movement through

call SetUnitX(unit, real)
call SetUnitY(unit, real)

Using those 2 functions moves the unit instantly (similar to a slide trigger) while not interrupting its orders (i.e. attacking)

Hmmm...Could you explain how can i transform your call... in a trigger?Because i can't undestand it.

• Unit - Move Unit

How about the barrage ability?

 

[Dagguh]

Barrage? WTF it fires when the unit fires.

Pheonix Fire? Did you see a homing laser shooting in whatever direction it wants?

About the seperate X and Y replacement. It WILL work.
But how exactly do we have to type the unit variable? It is some ID or what?

 

[Day-Elven]

It's a variable of type unit.
Example:

local unit u=GetLastCreatedUnit()

Real value --> Sets the oposition of variable unit (X coordinate)

call SetUnitX(u, real)

Real value --> Sets the oposition of variable unit (Y coordinate)

call SetUnitY(u, real)

 

[Dagguh]

Alright man, thanks.

 

[Eleandor]

• Unit - Move Unit

That interrupts its current actions, and thus he'll never attack? I think you MUST use SetUnitX and SetUnitY...

 

[Silk060]

What about to give him an ability that auto attacks enemy units even while moving?

 

[Lupus]

You also can create dummy unit with the same attack as main and move this dummy with SetUnitX(u,x), SetUnitY(u,y) functions to position of main unit every 0.1 seconds (as example).

 

[WarCoelho]

Hmmm...The X and Y thing is a good idea but,I still can't understand it!Can someone explain?Is this X and Y thing a trigger?

 

[reatek]

I sure can't xD ! Ask someone to do it for you in a trigger. Or just like they say - use phoenix fire! It is the best way... hope it works for you.
