How do i make unit go through other units?

[Chewii]

Hello im making a spell Stone wall. And i want it at lvl 3 that allies can go through the wall but not enemys. I can't remove collision when a ally comes near. Then it will be path bugs and if a enemy unit is just behind the ally unit the enemy unit can go through aswell and i don't want that xP

Well thanks if you guys help me!

Regards Chewii.

You can periodically pick enemy units near the wall and move them back just a bit with SetUnitX() and SetUnit(Y).

Okay but the wall composed by units and how can i save the last created unit when he does the spell? cuase if the unit uses this wall spell then somone else uses another dummy spell what should i do then i can do pick every enemy units in 120 range from last created unit blah blah you know. And the save should last atleast 20 seconds. If you can help me with that it would be awesome!

Regards Chewii

Post the actions that you want to have happen and I'll tell you how to make it MUI.

Well i already posted them i did the spell its a rock wall spell that creates a wall of rock pieces. And if a piece of the wall is destroyed it deals dmg but allies can't go through the wall at lvl 1 and 2 but they can go through the wall at lvl 3. Well i could as maker said that pick near units the wall that's compsed by units. But when he casts the spell the units spawn. Then they're last created unit. But if someone else does the any other dummy spell they're not last created units then i can't pick nearby enemy units the wall dummies. So i want to save the last created unit in someway

 

[Maker]

Add the last created unit(s) to a unit group, and then loop through the group, like this:

• Untitled Trigger 005
  • Actions
    • Unit Group - Add (Last created unit) to Wall_Group

• Untitled Trigger 006
  • Events
    • Time - Every 0.03 seconds of game time
  • Conditions
  • Actions
    • Unit Group - Pick every unit in Wall_Group and do (Actions)
      • Loop - Actions

i don't want to pick the dummies i want to pick the units in a 130 range from the dummies

 

[Maker]

I know, do that in the loop.

 

[Chewii]

I don't know how to do that :S im sorry but i actually have no idea ..

When you add the unit and pick it from what Maker suggested, just set a point to check its position and set a unit group that checks every unit within 130.00 range of your picked unit. If the Picked unit is an enemy (Boolean Comparison), set its position and set an additional point with offset towards (facing of (Picked unit) - 180) [To move it backwards] and Unit - Move (Picked unit) to your point offset.

 

[Chewii]

can you show me how i check the position? i still don't know how i tested some stuff but i guess im really bad at theese things

^ - needs to be "True"

 

[Pharaoh_]

Right. )

 

[Chewii]

But the two custom scripts doesn't work i did like this

• Custom script: call SetUnitX (GetEnumUnit(), GetLocationX(udg_SW_SavePoint[3])

and

• Custom script: call SetUnitY (GetEnumUnit(), GetLocationY(udg_SW_SavePoint[3])

I got syntax error please help.

 

[Pharaoh_]

You forgot a parenthesis in the end of the script for both cases.

 

[ikillforeyou]

.. and a space between the name of the function and "("

 

[Pharaoh_]

.. and a space between the name of the function and "("

Doesn't change anything. Having a space between the parameter and the function or not will result no syntax errors.

 

[ikillforeyou]

LOL! i always thought it did, disregard that, then.

 

[Chewii]

Ty pharaoh its very nice! ty +rep for you when i can do it again have to spread some rep first.

 

[Dr Super Good]

Why would you want any units to walk through a wall? Have you not heard of a gate?

Anyway, I seriously do not advise the perodic trigger Pharaoh_ gave. It will most certainly lag your map if there are many walls (20 will probably start to kill weaker computers).

 

[Chewii]

If you look at my first post its a spell And the wall lasts 20 seconds and its a 20 second cd on it so it won't be any probs.

 

[ALiEN95]

sorry because this post is big and not well described but i think people will know the idea
1.)


something like this could be made ( i think ....)


create 2 units (unit A and unit B)

A and B (units) are walls´s endings (from beginning to end)

A------------------------------------------B



so if enemy is ordered to go trough "---------------"

-order unit to move to nearest ending of wall (it can be A or B) and after he comes to (A or B) he must be ordered to go to "real" ordered location
-i think that with real ordered location could be a bit of a problem,but if it is just ordered by computer (creep),u can use rally as dummy rally that will save the real ordered location so that unit will know where to move when he comes to A or B (the ending of wall)


-this is what should happen
-if unit is enemy
than if he is ordered to go trough wall,trigger will ordered him to go to the end of wall (A or B) and when he comes to ending than he goes to ordered location

2.) - i think this cant be made nice

make a lot of portals ... ( "O" is portal , "----" is wall) visible to allies (add invisibility to them)

OOOOOOOOO
-------------
OOOOOOOOO

So when allied unit is ordered to go trough wall he will automatically go trough portal to pass it

3.)
make dummy enemy units in walls´s line (under the wall)

"O" is dummy, (where is O there is wall)

OOOOOOOOOO

now if enemy unit comes near wall he must be attacked by dummy units

each attack needs to turn off collusion for 1 second and collusion needs to be turned on when 1 second passed ( i think this is hard to do xD )
