[JASS] GetLocalPlayer()

[DevilDuke1995]

Does this work properly?

if GetLocalPlayer() == [SomePlayerComparison] then
   call ShowUnit([SomeUnit], false)
endif

Yes, but as soon as the unit is clicked, the game desyncs. This only works with locust-units properly.

 

[PurgeandFire]

Yes, it won't desync immediately.

However, interactions with that unit from players can cause some buggy effects. What exactly are you trying to do? Showing/hiding units locally is very prone to desyncs, despite the fact that it won't desync immediately.

EDIT: asfdkx beat to the post.

Thanks i just wanted to make it completely invisible

Use SetUnitVertexColor for that. Set the alpha to 0 for everyone but the person you want to see it.

Sadly, that still displays the shadow afaik. =\

I think the only way would be messing with the invisibility/ghost spells. Or you could just remove the shadow for the SetUnitVertexColor method to work.

Yeah, and the health bar still shows AFAIK.

Try locust, remove shadow, and set vertex color maybe.
