Create Unit, Move Unit and Make Unit Fly

[Faestus]

I want to create a unit at a point and make it fly.

• Unit - Turn collision for (Last created unit) Off
• Unit - Move (Last created unit) instantly to M_Point[M_Int]
• Unit - Add Crow Form to (Last created unit)
• Animation - Change (Last created unit) flying height to (R_FlyingHeight[2] + (Default flying height of (Last created unit))) at 10000.00
• Unit - Remove Crow Form from (Last created unit)

It gets created and all, it ignores collision and gets moved no matter what, but it won't fly... Why?

the problem is that at 10000.00 means that it will be rising for value(the height)/10000 seconds

the formula is very simple, height / rate = seconds

at your example, the unit will most likely not even get from land

Actually it means it will raise 10000 units per second.

ow lol yea thats right, I even wrote it but then I thought eh...thats surly wrong, and deleted it

maybe try printing the last created unit's name, if it even exists
also try printing the R_FlyingHeight[2] + (Default flying height of (Last created unit)) to make sure its something > 0

if neither of that is wrong, I am clueless

I think rate/height = seconds is the right formula

set the rate to 0

edit: actually i dont knwo the exact formula
but rate at 0 changes the height with no delay

R_FlyingHeight[2] is predefined in startup and works well in multiple triggers.

Only flying units or units that have had the flying trick applied to them can have their flying height changed.

Flying trick = add and remove storm crow ability.

I'm not sure, but the arithmetic might be causing a problem, try setting that to a real variable and then plugging it in.

I can't imagine, but maybe add and remove crow form before changing the height.

EDIT: I'm not sure why your trigger isn't working, I just did the exact same thing and it seems to work properly

It's formula is Speed = Distance / Time
Speed = Rate
Distance = Height

This is what you got;
10000.00 = R_FlyingHeight[2] / Time
Time = R_FlyingHeight[2] / 10000.00

For example, your R_FlyingHeight[2] is 300,
Time = 300 / 10000.00
Time = 0.03s

Everything worked fine when I tested this formula, perhaps something wrong with your setup or Object Editor error ?

It may be ur last created unit. U should store it into a variable for efficiency, speed and less chance of bugs.
