Auto-attack off

[Testiclies]

Hey, I need help to turn off a unit's auto attack. I want it so you have to right click somebody to have your unit attack them.
Plz help soon.

 

[Ironside]

It think it would only be possible to remove the Attack spell and make a custom spell with triggers and use play animation Attack and stuff...

 

[Child_0f_Bodom]

Set ''Acquisition Range'' to 1.00.

 

[Testiclies]

Well that works, but then I can't attack ranged at all...

 

[sadvisor]

or you can make a trigger something like this:

Event: Map startup
Conditions: None
Actions: Make player 1 treat player 2 as neutral.

Then, you'll have to press attack and select the unit to attack it.

 

[ALiEN95]

just add chain to your unit with damage that you want and 1 target max
(chain damage is stronger that attack damage)
use this icon to make it look like attack icon
ReplaceableTextures\CommandButtons\BTNAttack.blp

set mana cost - 0
cooldown - 0
missile speed - 9999999999

(Hotkey - A)

if you want to attack when right click......

• unit is ordered
  • Events
    • Unit - A unit Is issued an order targeting an object
  • Conditions
    • (Ordered unit) Equal to (You unit with "fake" attack - chain lightning)
  • Actions
    • Wait 0.00 seconds
    • Unit - Order (Ordered unit) to Orc Far Seer - Chain Lightning (Target unit of issued order)

You must use action Wait 0.00seconds


or you could add classification - worker

 

[Testiclies]

Oh I see, thanks. I did that before, but instead of doing it with attack, I made a whole new spell, and that was weird because then there were two new spells. Thanks man.

NEVER in the hell use waits...

I think it is better than WarCraft crash
i don´t really care what some people are saying,like removing player groups can cause some leaks,and you need 1000000 to make that leak that will cause lags

waits are working on some events,like unit dies,you can wait 15 sec and it will work

besides,how would you order ordered unit to attack if you don´t use wait?

Player groups do not leak.

It will work everytime, but the smoothest wait is 0.27 seconds, thats Blizzards dumb fault.

besides,how would you order ordered unit to attack if you don´t use wait?

I would use timers...

Like this:

scope TheAttack

    struct Attack
        static unit theUnit = null
        static timer theTimer = CreateTimer()

        public static method releaseAttack takes nothing returns nothing
             // Do whatever you want...
        endfunction

        public static method create takes unit u returns Attack
            Attack.theUnit = u
            call TimerStart(Attack.theTimer, 0.01, false, function Attack.releaseAttacK)
        endmethod
    endstruct
endscope

Edit: This would wait 0.01 seconds.

 

[raid1000]

give the unit worker clasification?
that will prevent it from attacking

This has already been said..

 

[raid1000]

and what is the problem with this?

 

[Anachron]

Why should you post it again? Its just awot (a waste of time)...

 

[ALiEN95]

Player groups do not leak.

They do leak but very samll,you need 1.000.000 to see that



10000 times in second
-set player group
-destroy player group

u will see it leak twice bu its to small anyway,you will have lags after 25 sec but that is 15.000.000 groups

i think there is no need to destroy force but il do it anyway

 

[ALiEN95]

This has already been said..

its that stupid worker icon i guess....

 

[Anachron]

Ouh,... Don't use player groups either..
But I guess there has to be something like DestroyForce() in vJASS. Gonna check it.

 

[raid1000]

sorry i didnt saw that somebody already posted that idea
i gues everybody likes the complicated shit instead of the clean and easy one

 

[Anachron]

Worker gives an worker icon... So this is clean and easy? Hah..

 

[raid1000]

change the worker icon to whatever
then if you are using a unit instead of a hero you have your very own icon

 

[Anachron]

Stay serious, that solution is really really bad.
