Attack on sight

[dubbed]

Hey, I want to make a map where the guard will only attack if they facing to the enemy. If they dont see the attacker than he can backstab the guards. How can i do that?

If the guard is standing still all the game through you could first try to set the, uhm dont remember whats its called range XD (that range which decide when units attack) to 0. Then make a region in front og him, and make a trigger which will make him attack a unit if it enters that region. This might give trouble if theres more units entering tho, but its all i can come up with... :S

Aquisition Range.

Set target acquisition range to 0 and do something like...

• MyTrig
• Events:
  • Unit - A unit comes within <range> or guard
• Conditions:
  • And - Conditions:
    • Real comparison - angle between (Triggering Unit) and guard is greater than facing angle of guard - <angle>
    • Real comparison - angle between (Triggering Unit) and guard is less than facing angle of guard + <angle>
• Actions:
  • Unit - Make guard attack (Triggering Unit)

Do some kind of condition about the unit being an enemy and stuff as well.

Indeed that is much better than a region this will make a circular sector for the LoS. I thought of that but I was lazy to post but anyway good thinking.
