Custom skin for specific player

[aitz-]

Hi, i'm trying to make a trigger for a custom model ingame for a spécific player but i don't know how to proceed...i need to set a variable with the name of the player ? making an if then else? please if someone could help it would be really kind. Thank you

P.S : i'm using GUI exclusively.

only way i can think of is to copy all the relevant units in the objecteditor and then make this player use only those. one alternativ might be to replace them upon training, but you still need to have all units twice in the object editor

nono, i mean if the player X is in the game , then he has his specific unit from the start of the game.

like a builder in vampirism at start he has another model bound to the name of the player...

i don't know if i was clear :/

thank you anyway

Like this? You would still need to remove leaks though.

• Actions
  • For each (Integer A) from 1 to 12, do (Actions)
    • Loop - Actions
      • If (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions)
        • If - Conditions
          • (Name of (Player((Integer A)))) Equal to Korialstrasz
        • Then - Actions
          • Unit - Create 1 SPECIAL BUILDER for (Player((Integer A))) at YOUR AREA facing Default building facing degrees
        • Else - Actions
          • Unit - Create 1 STANDARD BUILDER for (Player((Integer A))) at YOUR AREA facing Default building facing degrees

Might be new functions for this in 1.29. But otherwise it is impossible.

Unless you make a dedicated unit type specifically for that player. But that generally is not worth the effort and complexity.

One way is to directly edit the model.
Certain animations can use unique textures.
So you would need 12 stand 1 animations and so on.

You can then remove certain animations from a specific unit to choose which ones you want to keep.

This is a cleaner solution than making 12 units but it requires modelling knowledge.

However, it is in lack of better options there is currently no perfect way of doing what you want.
I would say don't bother.

it's okay i found how to add custom skins at start of the game. i just created a new unit with the specific name of the player, check if the palyer is in game and tadaaa it removes the old unit from game and creates a new one for the triggering player.
