Circular movement

[TheWhiteWolf]

Hi guys, I am having some problems with circular movement. I need to a unit move in circle, but not on ground, so I can't use Point with Polar Offset. The unit will be swinging from a rope/chain, much like in God of War. Please, post a picture representing CIRCULAR MOTION IN POLAR CO-ORDINATES
Of course, I will +rep any help, as usual

There is such a system in solar conquest which allow satellites to orbit planet in circles. I can look at that when i arrive home today. Don't remember it if it was region or distance based since callex made this system.

Thanks, bro, but I already found a solution I asked my older brother how to ake circular motion with (X,Y) coordinates system, if I know Radius and Angle. He said that:
X= radius x cos angle
Y = radius x sin angle
Anyway, thanks for helping me, bro

Well, maybe that solution is better than the solar conquest solution which is GUI. However it was brutally simple in solar conquest actually

• ...
• If (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions)
  • If - Conditions
    • (Custom value of (Picked unit)) Equal to 0
    • (Novacia Orbit <gen> contains (Picked unit)) Equal to True
  • Then - Actions
    • Set Temp_Point = (Position of (Picked unit))
    • Set Temp_Point2 = (PresetPoints[4] offset by 800.00 towards (0.50 + (Angle from PresetPoints[4] to Temp_Point)) degrees)
    • Unit - Move (Picked unit) instantly to Temp_Point2
    • Animation - Change (Picked unit) flying height to 400.00 at 8000.00
    • Custom script: call RemoveLocation(udg_Temp_Point)
    • Custom script: call RemoveLocation(udg_Temp_Point2)
  • Else - Actions

PresetPoints[4] is the planet it orbits, and the 0.50 degree change every 0.1 sec is very slow rotation. 15 or 30 is way faster and should look like a fast spin. Im quite sure you must add and remove crow form ability on the ground unit to make it be able to get his flying height changed by triggers.


I felt like I owed you an answer since you repped me without letting me answer.

Thank you, bro, but I already knew your way. The problem was that I din't need ground movement, but air instead (ground would be parallel to the X axis and air to the Z axis), but thanks anyway
