[JASS] Changing Flying Height Problem

[Marcelo Hossomi]

Hi people =P
Here I am to bother you a little more xD

    set Fenix = CreateUnit(Player(0), 'u007', 0.00, 0.00, 90.00)
    // Don't worry about players and coordinates xD
    call SetUnitVertexColor(Fenix, 255,255,255,204)
    call SetUnitPathing(Fenix, false)
    call UnitAddAbility(Fenix, 'Amrf')
    call UnitRemoveAbility(Fenix, 'Amrf')
    call SetUnitFlyHeight(Fenix, 500,1)
    call UnitApplyTimedLife(Fenix,'BTLF',1.00)

The unit u007 has movement type = None. Should this piece of code work?

Thanks!

Starcraft, eh?

I don't think that should have any problems, but who knows.

Oh, and if it has 'none' movement type, you probably don't need to turn off the pathing.

Then I must have done something wrong with the unit... It does not do anything except change the unit's color and add the expiration timer.

Is there any problem if I change the unit's maximum pitch angle (or roll angle, dunno XD)? 'cause my intention is to make a phoenix look like arising from the floor (Fênix is Phoenix in portuguese xD)

I've asked for a custom model but I wasn't so lucky xD

Thank ya!

Possibly the rate at which the height is changed. Though i'm not sure, as height changing rates seems confusing to me.

 

[Marcelo Hossomi]

Ah something here is wrong...
I use BJDebugMsg to display the flying height of the unit, AFTER using SetUnitFlyHeight.

It shows 500.00, however the unit didn't leave the floor =/

 

[PurplePoot]

Does the unit have any movespeed? I don't think you can give buildings height.

 

[Dr Super Good]

It is working, it is changing height, but at the rate from 0-500 over 500 seconds (I think). The rate is basicly the speed at which the model moves up, setting it equal to the height means it moves up over 1 second. A number of 500000 should make it instantly move up.

 

[PurplePoot]

Hehe, that's it. Didn't notice that.

Oh, and setting the rate to 0 makes it rise instantly.

Wow
It really works =P
Thanks both! It was already annoying me! =P

(sorry for being late xD)
