Collision Problem

[Spartipilo]

Hi!

I made some flying units with Collision = 0, and Disabled the Collision with triggers once unit enters the map, the thing is they still collide. Is there something i'm missing?

Maybe because air units have zero collision when moving by default, their collision attribute is hardcoded?

It is just pure guesswork from what I read though

So... any way around to fix it?. Maybe making it ground units with added/removed crow form and custom height set?

y not use SetUnitX/Y ?

im not exactly sure what u r trying to do ?

Yep. I am also thinking of this.

Already tested. I'm not sure if maybe this particular unit is hardcoded or something like that. I tested with every movement type and collision 0 and trigered disabled collision and it still collides (because it's based on a flying unit).

Try basing it on a ground unit and see what turns up.

OMG This is just so amazing i can't believe it. Flying units have hardcoded collision. The only way to get through it is adding Locust. Neither trigger nor Collision = 0 works.

However, using use ground units (Footman) with add/remove Crow Form, you get Ground unit to fly and not collide, even with triggered enabled collision and Collision > 0.

Well looks like my guess is correct

Best of luck with your Carrier system. It looks truly promising (>_o)b

Thanks! I made a mistake thoug, the Object Editor collision takes place amongs units once you move them, but at least that awfull flying unit displacement doesn't happen. There's no need to add/remove crow form, setting the movement type to flying works great.
