Chasing Quest

[aldo2000]

Hello, once again. This time I wanna ask you guys about chasing quest, you chase a villain, but how you make the trigger that when your units is too far from the chased villain and you lose?

 

[Vladadamm]

You check every 1.00second if the distance between the villain and the units is superior than 1000.00 (for example)

 

[TerraNexx]

• Melee Initialization
  • Events
    • Time - Every 0.50 seconds of game time
  • Conditions
    • (Distance between (Position of (Triggering unit)) and (Position of (Triggering unit))) Greater than or equal to 1000.00
  • Actions
    • Do nothing

Instead of triggering units put your custom units and instead of actions put what do you want to happen when villain leaves lets say 1000 range, like quest failure etc.

 

[Spartipilo]

When the quest is activated, you set two units:

Set Chaser = Triggering Unit (Or whichever unit you use, depends on your quest activation trigger)
Set Villain = Your villain

• Melee Initialization
• Events
  • Time - Every 0.50 seconds of game time
• Conditions
• Actions
  • Set Point1 = (Position of Chaser)
  • Set Point2 = (Position of Villain)
  • If Then Else
    • If - Conditions
      • Distance between Point1 and Point2 is greater than xxxxxx
    • Then - Actions
      • Trigger - Your actions...
    • Else - Actions
      • Trigger - Your actions...
  • Custom script: call RemoveLocation(udg_Point1)
  • Custom script: call RemoveLocation(udg_Point2)

Test map provided for clearer understanding of triggers.

 

[ronojales]

Terra's and Spar's triggers will only work on a chase in a straight line. i can't check def's map, but you are chasing a villain in a straight path, it should be enough.

 

[defskull]

Displacement from Chaser to the Villain will always act as straight line, if obstacle would be included too, you'll need a new pathing system, and that will triple an easy work.

Thanks

 

[defskull]

Have you downloaded the test map ?

 

[aldo2000]

Yeah, there were perfect, BTW how you know my name?

 

[Vladadamm]

If your name is aldo, so he only remove the 2000. It's usual to make the pseudos shorter when you write.

Some exemples :

Some of my IG friends call me Vlad or Vlada instead of Vladadamm.
ronojales called TerraNexx "terra" and spartipilo "spart" in this thread.

 

[aldo2000]

My real name is Aldo, why everybody know's that?

 

[Vladadamm]

Another example :

If you have an IG friend with a pseudo like "Alexander123456789", you'll call him Alexander or Alex, and this if you know or not his real name.
