Check to see if something is in water?

[initus]

I was wondering how you would go about checking whether a unit (or destructible, etc) is in currently standing in water?

Any help would be appreciated, thanks!

• Conditions
  • (Terrain pathing at (Position of (Triggering unit)) of type Floatability is off) Equal to False

this condition works for both shallow/deep water. If you want to find out which one of those it is, you'll have to use this (for shallow water):

• Conditions
  • (Terrain pathing at (Position of (Triggering unit)) of type Floatability is off) Equal to False
  • (Terrain pathing at (Position of (Triggering unit)) of type Walkability is off) Equal to False

For deep water change the second condition to "equals true"

Hmm, yeah... forgot I posted this... I actually found the answer yesterday, thanks anyway

Get location Z only calculates to the surface of the water

water always has the same Z (as long as you dont use terrain deformations which arent recommended anyways due to lagg), dont know whats about stomp and so on, but i use a height check in supcom, where performance is important...

quite a good idea to simply use the pathing type, i think i will benchmark it out
(benchmark script see signature its good^^)
