A way to calculate the best fit for your unit? (projectile launch)

[Weigazod]

Is there no way for me to calibrate these coordinates (X,Y,Z) except making a guess and tweaking it like a ring maker that has no concept of PI?

I am working on Fel Orc Warlock unit. Scale size 1.0 but there will be many more units and I hope I can make a better measurement and type in the an accurate input without having to eyeballing it and fixing it 2-3 times.

Trial and error is probably your best bet yep, even though 0/0/60 probably works for a large majority of units

Also since I always forget how they work in WC3 here's an epic reference that I made

Which is weird because in e.g. War3 Model Editor X and Y are the opposite, oh well

Imo there are 4 options:

1. Hope that someone have written down good values (for example in custom model's page)
2. Do something that "mostly works" (such as the 0/0/60)
3. Trail and error, adjust, test-play, etc
4. Open in a model editor (for example Retera's Model Studio) and figure out the position that you think should fire the projectile and get its values.

Blizzard got it right for most of them I'd like to think. Are you using a lot of custom models or something?

I am using War3 Orc Warlock model. I don't think they give me the coordinates. The default on it made it looked like they beamed the projectiles out of their chest.
