Flying unit ignoring nearbly decorations/terrain angle

[JollyD]

How to make flying unit to fly constantly by 90 degrees, (straight). Like ignoring nearbly decorations/terrain. I mean not flying height but angle of slope.

i think ull have to trigger it by setting its height real z over terrain every .031250000 seconds

I think it has something to do with sample radius and points. WarCraft III uses those to determine unit pitch and roll when climbing slops.

i thought pitch and roll were the angles that the flying object turn at so if u set it to 45 it will turn 45 degrees when making a turn and for the roll if set to 180 it will basically do a flip

I think he is asking how to stop the pitch and roll of the flying unit matching the terrain it is on. If you look at a unit like a siege tank climbing a hill, it will rotate with the terrain instead of embedding its front into the hill or having the front float in mid-air when going downhill. I recall some sampling point field in the Arts section governing this behaviour.

I have problems recalling if flying units actually do this, although the flying machine does ring a bell.

i think your right

Flying units are affected by terrain height. Art - Maximum Pitch angle is the back to front tilt and Art - Maximum Roll angle is the left to right tilt. Set them to 0.

And this will help with me to stop it rolling? Ok will test it? thanks
