[Spell] Charge with animation

[mogulkhan1Axe]

Okay guys i need to move my unit (i wanna fix my charge spell but dont know how) with running animation and i need to do it via custom script

I need someone to tell me how that custom script would look like

For example

WE have unit, angle, distance per moving...
i know how to do it in GUI but i need also an running animation to go with it and it seems that it doesnt work somehow when u move the unit via GUI trigger

• Animation - Play (Picked unit)'s stand animation

It's a possibility that moving a unit in X/Y directions may reset the animation, in that case it's impossible. It doesn't bug with Z at least, I can confirm that .

ive seen spells that dont bug idk why but when i set play animation it just doesnt play any actually just slides

well I am not sure about it, that's why I said it's possible. Try coping the same animaion action to another trigger and test playing it without the charge.

Right. Attempt changing the units X and Y value directly then.

• Actions
  • Set yourUnit = (Triggering unit)
  • Set yourLoc = (Position of yourUnit)
  • Custom script: call SetUnitPosition(udg_yourUnit, GetLocationX(udg_yourLoc), GetLocationY(udg_yourLoc))

I heard that it will fix it somewhere..

Use SetUnitX and SetUnitY, both do not issue a stop order unlike other unit moves. Warning they will bug on buildings (they fail to move the pathing footprint and origin).

i need distance also like 20-25 idk i dont remember how much

Irrelevant. Just use your normal GUI location variable, just replace the actual move action.

something like this if you want to try DSG's idea.

• Actions
  • Set yourUnit = (Triggering unit)
  • Set yourLoc = (Position of yourUnit)
  • Custom script: call SetUnitX(udg_yourUnit , GetLocationX(udg_yourLoc))
  • Custom script: call SetUnitY(udg_yourUnit , GetLocationY(udg_yourLoc))

ah ty ill try

Custom Script: call SetUnitAnimationByIndex( unit name, number )

That works with the GUI move, it forcibly plays the animation no matter.
