[Trigger] Creating Unit in front of a unit

[Hamza121]

so i want a trigger that will create a unit 2 in front of another unit 1
i made a trigger that will create a unit 2 but it seems to be creating the unit 2 at the bottom of the unit 1
but i want it to get created in front of it (if the unit 1 facing to the right the unit 2 should be created at the right side of the unit 1)

You just need to use the "Point with Polar Offset" function. Two point variables are also needed: A for defining where the first unit should be created, and B for storing the "Point with polar offset" value and create the second unit with it. In that function, you need to specify what's the distance between both units, and which angle the second unit should follow.

• Set pointA = (Center of Somewhere <gen>)
• Unit - Create 1 Footman for Player 1 (Red) at pointA facing (Random angle) degrees
• Set pointB = (pointA offset by 125.00 towards (Facing of (Last created unit)) degrees)
• Unit - Create 1 Footman for Player 1 (Red) at pointB facing (Facing of (Last created unit)) degrees
• Custom script: call RemoveLocation(udg_pointA)
• Custom script: call RemoveLocation(udg_pointB)

BloodSoul's trigger is great. Here's a slightly tweaked version for if Unit 1 already exists.

• Set pointA = (Position of (Unit 1))
• Set pointB = (pointA offset by 125.00 towards (Facing of (Unit 1)) degrees)
• Unit - Create 1 Footman for Player 1 (Red) at pointB facing (Facing of (Unit 1)) degrees
• Custom script: call RemoveLocation(udg_pointA)
• Custom script: call RemoveLocation(udg_pointB)
