Hero Button Position Tavern

[BETABABY]

Help! I've been having this weird problem in my wc3. Whenever I assign a specific coordinate to my hero in a tavern, it doesn't show in the desired coordinates..


For Example:

I assigned the hero in Y=3 X=2 but whenever I test the map it goes Y=3 X=1 sort of like that.

Y is the vertical coordinate, X is the horizontal coordinate.

The values start at X=0, Y=0 from the top left of the area where the buttons go. Y=3 is off the screen, so it probably moves it back for you or something.

EDIT:
I remembered I made an epic picture for this. Check it out:

I already know what the coordinates are.. the problem is that even if i have set the right coordinates for the icon, the icon wont show up to that desired position



Hold on.. let me take a screenshot

 

[SAUS]

Have you tried other coordinates? Y=3 is definitely not a valid spot to put any icons, so it may cause trouble.

If two icons overlap, it will choose the first one in the list of abilities / etc and the rest will be shifted to fit into an empty slot.

I don't know what exactly is your problem. Can you show a screenshot of your object editor data and the icon in-game?

Uhmm.. I'm a newbie to hive.. How do I attach the screenshots in my reply

What I'm trying to say is that it really doesn't put the icon in the location of where I wanted it.






Like in my screenshot... I swear to god I put it in the right coordinates.. where "X" is column and "Y" is row

 

[SAUS]

Based on the screenshot, regardless of where the icon is supposed to be, X=2 and Y=0 should not put it where it is in the in-game screenshot. That's really weird. Maybe try putting the unit in other buildings? See where it ends up in those.

 

[BETABABY]

Pretty weird right.. I already tried putting it in another building but it still the same result.


Those four heroes in my tavern are also acting like that.

 

[SAUS]

What are the coordinates for all the heroes?

 

[BETABABY]

3,2 / 2,0 / 0,0 / 2,1

 

[SAUS]

wtf none of those match any of their coordinates.

In your list, is the first number per pair Y or X?

 

[PublishedShadow]

I would like to see all Hero's Coordinates. One could be pushing the other into a different position.

 

[BETABABY]

Only those four heroes which i mentioned have this problem


Well the the first number is Y and the second number is X


Much like this -----> Y,X

 

[BETABABY]

Well the coordinates are:



Y , X
3 , 2 = Keeper of the Grove (Hero)
2 , 0 = Woodland Spirit
1 , 2 = Juggernaut
0 , 0 = Assassin

 

[RobertMKD]

No, the coordinates are X,Y (X are the columns, Y are the rows)

0,0 is the top left corner button, while 3,2 is the bottom right corner button..

 

[BETABABY]

Have you even looked inside the WC3 World editor?? Take a look at my screenie.. Its the other way around. I have tested it.

3 is the limit of Y much like the columns while X has a limit of 2. Try for yourself in the world editor.

 

[SAUS]

I don't think that is how it works in my editor. X is the column (horizontal coordinate) and Y is the row (vertical coordinate). Try making them all X=0, Y=0, and see where they end up. Then move them one at a time from there. My only guess is that the one with Y=3 is somehow breaking it, because that is invalid for me in my editor.

Other than that, maybe your editor is messed up or something. I don't know what would cause it to do that lol.

 

[BETABABY]

When I input "3" in the "Art- Button Position X" it errors. But if I input "2" in the same Art-Button Position, the editor accepts it.

Also all of my heroes except the four heroes which are in my screenshot functions normally in taverns.

One of the four heroes that I input coordinates 0,0 in it places the hero in another button position and not the one that i input to the hero.

 

[SAUS]

Did you try setting them all to 0,0? Are they broken when you only have one hero in the tavern? Try putting in just one at a time. Pretty much have to brute force random things to figure out what is causing the problem. I have never run into a problem like this.

On everyone else's editor, X and Y seem to be the other way around. I don't know what made it different for you. If you hold shift when you go to edit the field, you can put in any number you want. Maybe try that and switch all the X and Y values just to see what happens.

I found something.. There are some specific coordinates which works in those heroes.

I changed one of my hero's coordinates from 2,0 to 3,0 and it placed accordingly.. the only problem is it doesn't place when i set it to 1,0.. its like there's a button blocking but there's not

I also found something while tweaking my triggers for hero pick... I accidentally placed "Add (Unit) to selection" and whenever I pick a hero, it selects the hero and the tavern at the same time. After that the tavern show a Stop Command right in the button position 1,0 but whenever i deselect the tavern and select it again the button disappears.

The building doesn't have movement to begin with and I solely based the building to the unit "Tavern" in the Neutral Passive category.
