Does unit in range event detect 'Aloc' units?

[WereElf]

I am using "Unit in range" event for my spawned missiles, but I'm wondering if they hit enemy missiles, will they destroy eachother xP
Or will they "hit" dummies on their way...

I don't understand your post.

But to your thread title the answer is no, units with locust are not see in GroupEnumUnitsInRange. If you want to see them you can use GroupEnumUnitsOfPlayer however.

I'm not using GroupEnumUnits at all. I'm using

            call TriggerRegisterUnitInRange(tr, shard, 48, null)
            call TriggerAddCondition(tr, Condition(function UponImpact))

Oh.. I believe in the past, I've read that event is not as efficient/good (or something) as just checking if the unit is in range yourself.

Sorry >< I don't know if that event can see locust units, but my suspicion would be no though as its likely just doing some GroupEnum of sorts behind the scenes.

It ought to be pretty easy to check though no?

I suppose I could do some testing xP

This may or may not be relevant but it's interesting.

It should be noted that the unit enters/leaves X distance of unit event will stop the subject from emitting any auras. This is a WC3 limitation as it must hook the event to the same parts of the unit as auras must in-order to operate and so they cannot co-exist.

From this post. Problem with "unit comes within x of unit"

thanks for the extra info
I am kind a using this event only for my missiles, so it doesn't really matter if they emit auras or not xP
