Get to the End and Die there!

[Pyraeus]

Well here it goes. Lets just say its a mob vs mob map. Where random units spawn and go kill each other. Usually when they spawn everything goes well.. Until they kill a unit and then they return back where they spawn So basically.. Can someone tell me a trigger where they attack-move to that region without coming back or should I spawn 1000 regions and when they step into one it orders them to attack to that location. I'm a rookie so I hope someone can help me .

Thanks in advance, Pyraeus.

Unit - A unit enters Region 000 <gen>
Unit - Order her0 to Move To (Center of Region 001 <gen>)

her0 is just used instead of a unit. This would work if your units spawn in one region, then move to center (other region). They should stay in center and just fight then.

Spawn them at their desternation, set their x and y to where you want them to actually spawn and then order them to attack that position.

Its a bug in WC3, they get ordered to move there yes, but not to move and stay there so they return.

 

[Pyraeus]

I didn't quit the last thing u meant with "set their x and y to where you want them to actually spawn" part. Could you explain?

Order the built unit to attack-move to a location, rather than a specific unit. This will stop units from stopping once they've killed a unit. (This is what Dota did)

• unit is created
• order last last created unit to attack-move to this location

[edit] Are you sure your telling them to attack-move, and not something else?

Don't teach people leaks... BRB, writing scripts for u.

Edit:

1) You need 2 variables
1a) A point variable named "TempPoint1"
1b) A Unit group variable named "TempGroup1"
--Information--
2) Player 1(Red)'s allies and his units will move to a location.
2b) Player 6(Orange)'s allies and his units will move to a location.
2c) Take note, the location they are issued is different, this is adjustable via "TempPoint1"

• Events
  • Time - Every 0.1 seconds of the game time
• Conditions
• Actions
  • Set TempGroup1 = (Units in (Playable map area) matching (((Matching unit) belongs to an ally of Player 1 (Red)) Equal to True) and (((Matching unit is alive) Equal to True)))
  • Unit Group - Pick every unit in TempGroup1 and do (Actions)
    • Loop - Actions
      • Set TempPoint1 = (Center of (-Your Region Here-))
      • Unit - Issue (Picked unit) to Attack Move to (TempPoint1).
      • Custom script - call RemoveLocation(udg_TempPoint1)
  • Custom script - call DestroyGroup(udg_TempGroup1)
  • Set TempGroup1 = (Units in (Playable map area) matching (((Matching unit) belongs to an ally of Player 6 (Orange)) Equal to True) and (((Matching unit is alive) Equal to True)))
  • Unit Group - Pick every unit in TempGroup1 and do (Actions)
    • Loop - Actions
      • Set TempPoint1 = (Center of (-Your Region Here-))
      • Unit - Issue (Picked unit) to Attack Move to (TempPoint1).
      • Custom script - call RemoveLocation(udg_TempPoint1)
  • Custom script - call DestroyGroup(udg_TempGroup1)

PM/VM me if u have any queries.

GIANT_CRAB, that's a bad solution. Creating 20 groups a second, creatins tons of locations per seconds, tonds of orders per second. No, no, no to all of it.

DSG's solution sounds very good.

LOL, at least it gets destroyed??? lol, it will help a beginner, i think.
Well, efforts wasted.

You didn't even test your trigger. Ordering a unit to attack-move once per 0.1 seconds makes it not attack anything and makes the movement jerky.

You're also picking structures.

Sorry if I sound too harsh towards you

oh yea, i missed those outs hmmm, every 1 second? or 5 seconds, or 3 seconds?

Setting the units x and y via the SetUnitX and SetUnitY natives should not change their origan position (I hope, never tried). As such they will walk back to where they spawned or were last moved via the other form of unit move.

Another good way to move units is to order them to patrole, which will mean they will atleast come back if they do decide to walk to their source of origan.

It didn't work, just tried it today.

hmm. By mob vs. mob map. You mean they are balanced, and lined up?

If not, I'd use 2 regions, each on the opposite parts of the map. Use the action: create (number) (units) then pick every unit in region 001 and do attack-move to region 002

 

[mckill2009]

usually AI's go back to their original positions, try...

• AI - Ignore guard position
