get current order of unit possible?

Detect if current order targets units or point?

I would like to know if there is a way to detect if an order is targeting a unit or a point (Either GUI or JASS)

thanks ^^

• Untitled Trigger 018
  • Events
    • Unit - A unit Is issued an order targeting an object
  • Conditions
  • Actions
    • If (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions)
      • If - Conditions
        • (Target unit of issued order) Equal to No unit
      • Then - Actions
        • -------- It is an item --------
      • Else - Actions
        • -------- It is a unit --------

actually its between a point or an object. I want to redirect the order the unit is currently obeying. something like

• Melee Initialization
  • Events
    • Unit - A unit Starts the effect of an ability
  • Conditions
    • (Ability being cast) Equal to (==) (blabla)
  • Actions
    • Unit - Order (Target unit of ability being cast) to "current order of target unit" ("random unit in playable map area")
    • Custom script: or
    • Unit - Order (Target unit of ability being cast) to "current order of target unit" ("random point in playable map area")

I need to know if the current order of the targeted unit is affecting a unit or a point to randomize a new target for that unit.

Check whether (Target unit of ability being cast) is null. If it is, use (Target point of ability being cast).

thanks purplepoot, that worked out ^^.

Now I have another problem. Is it possible to retrieve the target of an order?

Here is an example

• Cast Nibelung Redirect Order
  • Events
    • Unit - A unit Starts the effect of an ability
  • Conditions
    • (Ability being cast) Equal to (==) Blabla )
    • ((Target unit of ability being cast) is A Hero) Equal to (==) True
  • Actions
    • Set order = (Current order of (Target unit of ability being cast))
    • Multiple FunctionsIf (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions)
      • If - Conditions
        • "target of order" == null
      • Then - Actions
        • something
      • Else - Actions
        • another something

Because I want to redirect the target of this ability and i don't know how to determinate if it is a unit or a point :/

 

[PurplePoot]

You would have to store information about the order when it was issued.

That said, didn't I just tell you how to determine whether the target of the ability is a unit or a point?

 

[darkrider]

yes, it worked and I +repped you.

I tried to "simulate" that with the ""target of order" == null" line.

I think that what you say will be possible as only heroes are targeted by this spell

So I'll make a trigger that stores everything I need every time a hero is order to do something.

Thanks again ^^

 

[PurplePoot]

I just meant that

Because I want to redirect the target of this ability and i don't know how to determinate if it is a unit or a point :/

seemed the same as your previous question.

 

[darkrider]

yes, the problem was that i was unable to retrieve the target of the order. If i don't have the target i cant determinate if it is point or target order. I didn't expressed my self correctly

But now I have a way so everything is solved ^^
