Dialog Buttons Help

[Drunken_Jackal]

I just need to ask some help for this trigger. Basically a dialog menu pops up after you click attack and then you select the targets which are units 1,2 and 3 for 3 units, units 1 and 2 for 2 units and unit 1 for a single unit.

BattleTarget_Forest is just basically a unit.

I posted a reply on wc3c.net for this:

• Set DistanceAttack = (Distance between ForestWarpLoc[7] and ForestWarpLoc[1])
• Unit - Order Mountain King 0009 <gen> to Move To ForestWarpLoc[1]
• Wait until (DistanceAttack Less than or equal to 100.00), checking every 1.00 seconds

It will basically keep waiting forever. DistanceAttack is only set once, unless some other unit is also ordered to attack (re-setting the variable and well that should key you in that it's not MUI nor MPI). You can use custom script to design your own loop that periodically resets DistanceAttack, but there are better ways. A periodic timer, combined with a decent indexing technique, can detect when the two units get within 100 distance of each other.

You also will leak all of these locations if the event happens again before all the waits can complete themselves, meaning it probably needs an entire overhaul.

Didn't understand much . I didn't check wc3c. I'll try to figure stuff out thanks.

 

[Bribe]

If you want assistance, asking specific questions about specific things you don't understand is the best way to get feedback which can help you understand the subject. I can re-clarify and re-iterate my entire statement many times over, but it's more simple for you to ask localized questions.

 

[mckill2009]

...after you click attack

do you mean when you attack?...

anyway, what are you trying to achieve?, can you explain a little bit more coz seems like your trigger is attacking a unit when a dialog button is clicked but cant do it...

 

[Drunken_Jackal]

No really when you click attack. I am trying to make a turn based system for my pokemon map. I dont want to download some since I want to learn. That trigger makes them move to the target area then attack them but I am using the mountain king because I want to use it for my other maps.

EDIT:
@Bribe: I think I understand a bit.
