[Solved] disconnect when unit attacks

[Nestharus]

A unit is ordered to a point. That unit has an attack on it, but it is simply ordered to move. An enemy blocks that point off somehow. The unit tries to get there, but then fails. It then attacks an enemy's obstruction in order to unblock and then moves to the point again. Immediately on the order to attack, random player immediately disconnects.


How do I fix this?


The attack is purely done by Blizzard's stuff, all I do is order the unit to move and it does the rest.


I tried catching the order event and ordering the unit to stop and then attack its target, but that didn't help: the player still disconnected.


edit
Fixed! >: O

Self-solved, I guess? I'm impressed that such a complicated scenario was able to be defined as a definite cause of disconnect.

Are you speak about movement systems like those shown in Skybi Castle Defense?

well, for causing the d/c, yes. For solving, no ;p.

So? What was it?

It was me, I snuck up in the middle of the night and placed this in your code:

if GetLocalPlayer() == Player(GetRandomInt(0,11)) then
    call CreateTrigger()
endif

But no seriously, what was it?

It was that exact problem that I mentioned in the first post. That exact problem caused the desync. Blizzard foolishly orders the unit to attack without ordering the unit to stop first. It is a wtf by Blizzard. I hooked into ACQUIRE_TARGET so that I could stop the attack completely. I'd kill the target unit and order the unit to stop and then move on >: P, thus avoiding the attack altogether. It also seems to work as a near instant block detector (takes like a split second for it to detect a block o-o).

You should pause the player and give him chance to fix his block. I hate it when a block accidently occurs and the next thing my best towers are killed.

I can't really pause the player as it's a wmw map.
