My JNGP unfortunately IS updated but still as i said....it stills never let me test maps on it
JassHelper not JNGP!

This bundle is marked as recommended. It works and satisfies the submission rules.
This is my Advanced Camera, Keyboard and Arrow Key Movement System requested by Nara-shikamaru and many other users.
The Camera System
The camera system is basicly a system that adjusts the camera distance, height and angle.
This prevents the camera from going through doodads or blocking your view when you walk away from them or even up a hill...
Well its MPI and easy to handle!
Read the beginning of the code to see the included functions!
The important values are changeable ingame AND NOW FOR EACH PLAYER SEPERATELY!!
But what makes this system advanced?
In contrast to many other camera systems this one isn't interrupted by items or units standing in your way. It adjusts the zAngle, too, but not like 'bamm' and the new angle is there!! It's smooth and lagg free!!!
The Keyboard System
nothing new but VERY useful as i think...
always when you want to create a effective arrow key movement system or a sniper system or anything else using the arrow keys you need to create 8 triggers: 4 for the key press event and 4 for the key release event.
this system just brings you these triggers, merged and optimized.
now you don't need 8 triggers you just need 1.
You have a function to check whether key xy is pressed.
in addition you have the power to register double press events to triggers.
they will fire when key xy is pressed twice within 0.5 seconds (adjustable).
The Arrow Key Movement System
nothing new, too, but useful, lagg free, MPI and it features custom plugins!
It has the basic functions of each arrow key system:
Up = move towards facing
Down = walk backwards
Left = turn left
Right = turn right
BUT my system doesn't collide with walls, it slides along them!
it is fully MPI so each player can control one unit, even if he doesn't own that unit!
And as i haven't seen this in any movement system before:
when a unit walks backwards it's animation is played reversed, too, so it doesn't look crappy Even flying units are supported!!
In addition everyone can expand this system by coding own plugins!!
For this test map I created the following ones:
Double Up press = dash foreward
Double Down Press = turn 180° around
Double Left or Right press = move in that direction without changing the facing angle...
check out the how to's in the test map to create your own plugins!
The test map uses all systems by giving you arrow key movement control over a soldier walking around in a small but lovely village.
To test the zAngle feature please walk outside the village where the hills begin
I was asked why i placed items there, because your unit can't pickup items...
Well other systems collide with items and count them as a wall!
My doesn't... it ignores them ;D
you need JNGP and some JASS knowledge to get this code working correctly
If you need a GUI tutorial for this system then read this one, made by Kirizaru
Tutorial
give credits when used and +rep if you think it's worth it
have fun

You could have mentioned that long ago.
Then... Re-download the map? Reinstall Warcraft III to fix a possible installation error?

how i install this i don`t understand VJASS Functions
but is a Very Very good spell
anyway +rep
and i create this account referer to you

found a minor bug in the camsys
didn't look into the code yet though -what could be the cause/how to fix ..
.. maybe i will
anyway: if you move around and try to scroll with the mouse wheel (or hit it accidently) the cam doesn't stop from going up and down, which is only triggered if the cam adjusts to the facing angle of the running unit at that moment (as far as i remember)
well should be no problem if people use it together with the movement sys and don't need the mouse at all while/for moving, but if they do and/or just mess around (like i do), it would make me want to quit as long as there is no -debug command or w/e built into the map, because it is very annoying and could cause eye cancer or an epileptic seizure

I tested it, and loved it!
Cam+movement system on footman=epic.
Applied to a flying dragon = EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE PPPPP - to be continued...
5/5 from me!
Wow, I see it has 5/5 with 18 votes. Not a single person voted lower than 5/5!

very nice system man 5/5
but i don't have vjass and i never will -.-
could you pls make this in GUI?
No chances, not even in Jass.

There are similar GUI compatible systems, not as good, but good enough. THIS system is too advanced for GUI or regular Jass, If you figure out a DECENT way of detecting EXACT terrain heights I might be able to help out out, that custom script crap doesnt work properly like this system does .
I dont understand why this system isn't Directors Cut though...

There are similar GUI compatible systems, not as good, but good enough. THIS system is too advanced for GUI or regular Jass, If you figure out a DECENT way of detecting EXACT terrain heights I might be able to help out out, that custom script crap doesnt work properly like this system does
I dont understand why this system isn't Directors Cut though...
Thanks guys you're great
maybe you can put in a good word me
thanks for your support!
@ EVERYONE HERE: I still take requests for new systems in vJASS!

One very big problem...
How do we make the camera further away from the target at all times?
More specifically, I'd prefer view 2 over current (1)
Pictured: over 9000 hours in mspaint
One way I found was to set the accuracy and extreme accuracy, but somehow the camera still shifts between far away and near to the target which causes massive headache in a bships game. Need it to stay at about 700 distance regardless of anything.
Thanks

Ah well, for now I will just use that 'solution' with setting accuracy damn high then.

this is f-ing sick. I would love to see an actual Warcraft RPG. I would pay to get my hands on that.

This is a great system. I'm going to use it in my map project.
And of course, I'll give credits.

I fell in love from the arrow key movements, excellent! although I have some questions with your system,
how come when your using the dragon the soldier is still standing there? I mean can't it fly with the dragon?
and can't you just use the hippogriff ability were you combine with the soldier instead of making a dragon that's difficult to land and return back to the soldier model? just curious, really good system you made, keep it up!

I need this system for my RPG, but when I follow all the steps in the import process and try to load my game (through warcraft 3 itself), it takes me back to the Local Area Network Create Custom Game screen.

Such a nice bunch of systems and they work together properly. However I have a little bug ~.~ I imported it into my map where the players will move with a ghoul and instead of the walk animation it plays the ghoul's death animation ~.~ How can I fix that?
Also how can I disable the double press events?

You have to use the ghoul's walk animation ID in the function.

To everyone:
To let other players have shared visual with the camera unit, you must simple copy and paste this custom script with the Number of Player. (1-16)
You can find, in the trigger "systems used" three actions.
Copy and paste
and change the copied one to
Voila! The camera is now shared with Player 2 (Blue).
Just because I had some time to figure it out, lol.

thats not impossible, or, it is but you can do it in another way, just check the distance between the cam and unit, and the angle of the camera, and if there are any doodads in that angle from the unit in the range between the camera and unit just make them transparent.

OK .... This thing needs an update.
1- Lots of repeating natives
2- Not Modular
3- Could be more efficient
etc..
I like the idea, but the code needs some tweaking.

No. You should use the functions inside it:
call SetCameraUnit(unit,player)

Is this system applyable for more than one player?
Meaning that you actually have 2 different heroes which can use the system on their own, not depending from eachother, instead of one?
