Hello!

[blackrat5521]

How would one make it so units don't die or take damage when a transport they are in dies?

 

[Marcos_M]

Make them Invulv when loading?

GUI Unit Event comes with this event and with the Unload event

 

[blackrat5521]

Is this all I need? Does this make the unit inside the transport vulnerable when the transport dies with the unit inside it?

• load
  • Events
    • Unit - A unit Is loaded into a transport
  • Conditions
  • Actions
    • Unit - Make (Triggering unit) Invulnerable

• unload
  • Events
    • Unit - A unit Finishes casting an ability
  • Conditions
    • (Ability being cast) Equal to Unload (editor)(Q)
  • Actions
    • Unit - Make (Triggering unit) Vulnerable

      Unit - A unit Finishes casting an ability
  •

      Unit - Make (Triggering unit) Vulnerable

This will not make the unloaded unit vulnerable because with triggering unit you are referring to the unit who finishes casting the ability I think, so you are referring to the transport. I don't think it's possible to detect if a unit is unloaded with normal events, the only way should be use Bribe's GUI Unit Event.

 

[blackrat5521]

Is there anyway someone can walk me through to how to make something like that? I don't know where to start!

 

[Marcos_M]

Start with importing THIS
GUI Unit Event v2.4.0.0
If you look the post

• Detect when a unit is loaded into a transport
  Event: Game - CargoEvent Becomes Equal to 1.00
  Unit: CargoTransportUnit[UDex] --- The unit who loaded this unit
  
  
• Detect when a unit is unloaded from a transport
  Event: Game - CargoEvent Becomes Equal to 2.00
  Unit: CargoTransportUnit[UDex] --- The unit who unloaded this unit

Then you create two triggers

Event
Game - CargoEvent becomes equal to 1.00
No condition
Unit - Add Invulnerable (Neutral) to UDexUnits[UDex]


Event
Game - CargoEvent becomes equal to 2.00
No condition
Unit - Remove Invulnerable (Neutral) to UDexUnits[UDex]

ah okay! also! I would like to make it so that a vehicle will not work without a hero inside of it (the movement speed will be 0 and it will be unable to attack / use abilities)

here is one set of triggers i tried, but doesnt seem to work

• transport
  • Events
    • Unit - A unit Is loaded into a transport
  • Conditions
    • Or - Any (Conditions) are true
      • Conditions
        • Car (F) (Human) Equal to (Unit-type of (Transporting unit))
        • Cobra Striker E92 (C)(human) Equal to (Unit-type of (Transporting unit))
  • Actions
    • Unit - Set (Transporting unit) movement speed to 450.00

• transport unload
  • Events
    • Unit - A unit Finishes casting an ability
  • Conditions
    • (Ability being cast) Equal to Unload (editor)(Q)
    • Or - Any (Conditions) are true
      • Conditions
        • Car (F) (Human) Equal to (Unit-type of (Transporting unit))
        • Cobra Striker E92 (C)(human) Equal to (Unit-type of (Transporting unit))
  • Actions
    • Unit - Set (Transporting unit) movement speed to 0.00

        • Cobra Striker E92 (C)(human) Equal to (Unit-type of (Transporting unit))
  • Actions
    • Unit - Set (Transporting unit) movement speed to 0.00

These triggers will not work for 3 reasons:
1)With "Transporting unit" you are referring to the transport, not the unit who is loaded; you should use "Loading unit" for refering to the unit who entered in the transport.
2)The unload trigger will not work because you can't detect when a unit is unloaded, you have to download Bribe's GUI unit event if you want to detect that.
3)Normal max speed of a unit is 400 and min is 150, so your trigger will not work correctly until you don't change maximum and minimum speed of a unit in gameplay constants.

I tried this setup, but this didn't work either. I wonder if it is because the editor won't let me set the Gameplay constants to 0? It only lets me go to 1.

• transport
  • Events
    • Game - CargoEvent becomes Equal to 1.00
  • Conditions
  • Actions
    • Unit - Set UDexUnits[UDex] movement speed to 450.00

• transport unload
  • Events
    • Game - CargoEvent becomes Equal to 2.00
  • Conditions
  • Actions
    • Unit - Set UDexUnits[UDex] movement speed to 0.00

You can force the editor to put some value that normally cannot be inserted by pressing and holding shift, while you are holding shift click enter or double click in the value which you want to change then you can release shift and put every value you want.

 

[blackrat5521]

My trigger is currently affecting my unit inside the transport and not the unit "transporting". How do I set it up in this way?

 

[Marcos_M]

Unit: CargoTransportUnit[UDex] --- The unit who loaded this unit

Read the instructions from my post above, is easy if you try

thank you!
