[Trigger] Freeze units - unable to move[quite easy]?!

[Narutorendan]

Hello

Okay a fast question, how I can avoid that my units move?
I want let my units playing an animation and they aren't allowed to move
So how I could do it, you sure have ideas, i don't get it yet lol =/
It is possible, but I don't get the idea how to make it, a fast suggestion would be nice

 

[Eleandor]

just use root?

 

[redscores]

Pause the units, and order the animations after pausing and add the effects...

But dont forget to unpause.

[Edit]
Okay I have trouble with that, when I do pause, play animation and unpause it's still in pause ?!

 

[redscores]

Then you do something wrong... post the trigger.

 

[Narutorendan]

• Event - Unit becomes Issued Order targeting an object

• Condition - Triggering unit = Soldier 0006

• Unit pause on Soldier 0006

• Wait 10.00 Seconds

• Unit pause off Soldier 0006

Quite easy trigger, but doesn't work =(
My soldier is stucked in the pause after 10 seconds..
Plzz help

[Edit] lol seems to work now, gonna post here again if something doesn't work with that

Pause has issues. It stops all buffs on it from acting (just pauses them, they are resumed after it is turned off), etc.

 

[redscores]

But read griffen, how else could you do that? Playing a animation, if you use root, it resets with each interval the animation. What would you do? You always complain and give no alternative idea. Damn.

 

[Captain Griffen]

Making someone aware of the consequences of someone is not complaining. Not doing so would be being a bitch.

Cancelling orders issues instantly replicates the effect, except for removing the order card stuff (unfortunately you can't add ward classification by triggers).

 

[redscores]

Well, being a bitch would be complaining and leaving him without a solution, which would make him feel bad.

And my way is the only way which is non-complicated, and with least bugs. If you use Roots or a Stun it could be interfered by removing the buff or something.

 

[Narutorendan]

Well, I knew that I could use Root, but I searched Redscores solution.
Okay guys, thanks ! The whole problem is solved and now we can play all in the sandbox together

 

[redscores]

Naruto, its nothing about you, but Griffen always complains about solutions but has no own solution, and that bothers me.

You being crap at JASS doesn't make your way the way with the least bugs. It has bugs to do with buffs, as I said.

Since the guy's obviously incapable / unwilling to work out a better solution, I guess I'll have to give it to him on a plate...bah, no one ever learns this way.

Thats no solution, because if the player orders the unit the order is resetted, so is the animation, so this is useless for his needs.

He wants to make a unit non-orderable and moveable and to play animations during that.

Go test, come back, and say sorry to me, and everyone else on this forum who has to put up with your misinformation.

 

[redscores]

Well, no need, i know the facts.

You pause and order stop, that resets animation and order.

Try it, lets play spell animation and then order the unit, then the spell animation is gone.
