is there anyway to like have unit to be able to just walk on to the ship (large scaling value of course)
and still allow the ship to move with them on it?
(I kind of want this for a cinemteic im doing for my map)

It is possible to have units walk on a ship, it's also possible to have a ship move while a unit is standing on it (buggy though, not very good), but i think it's impossible to have both. (let alone looking good enough for a cinematic...)

allright. make a boolean that is true if unit is on the ship and false otherwhise

Every 0.01 seconds of game time

Boolean Equal to true

Set Units Position ( unit, GetUnitsPosition( ship ) )

(clean up the leaks tho)

thats all there is to it!

oh, and make sure either the ship or the unit is flying, so pathing wont interfere.
