Walk Animation {playing the walk animation on a dummy unit}

Belgarath · Mar 15, 2009

(This isn't my problem; it's a mates. He doesn't have a hive account)

Basically, he wants a dummy unit (footman model) that is a 'disguise' of another unit to use the walk animation when the normal guy walks. He knows how to do all the triggers, he's even done it all, but the footman doesn't walk - he just starts to walk, then just sticks. There seems to be no possible fix in sight, which is why he asked me to post here.

Thanks.

Could you please be more specific?

The footman doesn't walk, then it does and then it's stuck?
And what's the dummy part about the unit if it got a model and can move freely? (In case it matters to solve your problem)

i am assuming he is moving the dummy unit via coordinates or by location points(do not recommend).

if you are moving the unit with x and y coordinates then you simply need to add an animation index script to it so it will play the animation every time it moves. index number is different for each unit and has to be trial and error.

Code:

Custom script:   call SetUnitAnimationByIndex(unit, index)

Erm also instead of Moving an unit with Move unit
if you move unit within two actions (SetUnitX and SetUnitY) it wont lose current animation
but SetUnitPosition resets the animation I guess
