Hide Unit For Specific Player

[sadvisor]

Is there any way of hiding a unit for a specific player?

For example, i have a map with a hero for each player, all in a small region. I want no player to be able to see other hero than his own.

Make your units hidden for all players on start.

• Unit - Hide <Unit>

Then use this functions:

• -------- In JASS, Players range from 0-11 instead of 1-12. --------
• Custom script: if GetLocalPlayer() == Player(X) then
• Unit - Unhide <Unit>
• Custom script: endif

Lolphail, just give them perm invis and unally...Dont make it over complicated.

If you add them Pernament Invisibility, they will be transparent (if they are not buildings).

yes, and i don't want them to be transparent

EDIT: bodom i can create floating text visible for only one player too with this?
( Custom script: if GetLocalPlayer() == Player(X) then
...actions
Custom script: endif)

Probably causes desync.

It will. Better use this:

• For each (Integer A) from 1 to 12, do (Actions)
  • Loop - Actions
    • Floating Text - Hide (Last created floating text) for (Player group((Player((Integer A)))))
• Floating Text - Show (Last created floating text) for Player Group - Player <X> (Color)

ok, thanks.
That's all.

Even better:

• Set string = " "
• Custom script: if GetLocalPlayer() == Player(0) then
• Set string = "My text I want to show to player 1"
• Custom script: endif
• Floating Text - create a new floating text that reads <string>

In case of hiding units: set transparency to 0 locally. Will still make the mouse cursor highlight though...
