[Trigger] How to make a floating unit have negative flying height in the entire game?

[TKF]

I've a little problem. Only those who fully understand this should answer.


I want a unit to be like a ship, but also have a negative height!

I need a ingame model
-to be floating (only water movement)
-have negative height when moving
-get below the constant float 0 height limit
-It cannot be a flyer nor amphibous!

In my example, I want the tinker alternate animation look more like a floating vessel. Currently it looks like it's floating on the water. I'm not going to import stuff to make it work!

i dont understand what you want...

u say you want it to float, and currently it is floating on the water... so u dont have a problem do you?

The problem is that it look like the model FLYES over the water! I want it partially submerged!

just set the height to zero, or hold Shift > double click > set negative?

did you allowe negative values? ye hu? whell then i pretty much dont have an anwser ... i might try.

ok Gui, i couldnt find ... Jass i dont know ...
i have a solution but its not with float.
make your unit fly and set its movement hight to -60 then just put pathing blockers on the boarder of the deep water area.
More i couldnt find, im sorry

The flyinghight doesnt work with floating because its "flying hight"

the JASS is native SetUnitFlyHeight takes unit whichUnit, real newHeight, real rate returns nothing if you set the rate as 0 you can make any unit's fly height change instantly, which is what you want, right?

He already said he tried to set the height.

I think the only way to do this is change the unit's Origin (in a model editor), but I'm not sure if that would help either.

Is there no way to do this in the triggers?

It's the equivalent of Set Unit Height, for god sake -.-
