[Solved] Autocast

[maartehhh]

Hi there,


I gave a random unit the ablity to use blink (not the Stalker version, but from the hybridC).. I want to make it autocasting when enemies are near, no mather the situation. I just changed the flags to autocast, added a validator for area search. It works, but not totally how I want it.

It only works when the unit is idle or when the unit has a targeting point. When I click on attack unit. It just walks to the unit, since its a melee unit, (without using the blink) and attack it. Ater that unit has been killed, it starting to autocast to other units. This is not how I want it.

For example how the charge works for the zealots. They are autocasting it while moving, even when u click 'attack unit'.

What did I miss here? I checked out the transient boxes, but they are buggy as hell. Are there eazy solutions to obtain this?


Kind Regards

you could add a buff that periodically issues to blink if a enemie is close

Aah, the same how 'Charge' works.. I could probely duplicate that from charge and put it on blink. Or u recommand making an new one?

charge works that way? i thought charge "modifies" attack with a special ability made for that.
yes just create a new buff (btw are there many of those units on the map?)

No, my bad.. I assumed that charge worked that way. But I see I'm incorrect. No not many directly. People can build the units, so in crazy situations multiple player could build those units, and you might get alot of them. Why?


Are there any other buffs which are simular to what I try to make? So I can peek how it a lil bit look likes.. Or if you could guide me through this one.. Never worked with buffs yet, kinda difficult to understand its mechanism..

Never mind.. I added a damage response behaviour to the unit.. It will suit the unit more than just an autocast..


Treath can be closed. Thanks for the help
