How to knock back a unit ONLY using GUI triggers

[Ramsey]

I no that you can knockback a unit using jass but i dont understand jass so can someone explain to me how to do it without jass???

Im making a ability so when a unit attacks you it blasts you back with special effects along the way


-Thanks

Generally, you have two triggers. One that activates the knockback with a variable, usually a boolean of sorts. You also have to store the unit you want knock backed into a variable. Then that turns on a trigger that is like

Event - Every .01 seconds in the game
Condition - If boolean is true
Action - Move Unit to position of Unit with offset -10.00 facing degrees

Then in your first trigger add a wait like
Wait - 10 seconds
then turn off that second trigger
the longer it waits the more it'll be knock backed

And then you can just add your special effect here, and then destroy it or if it's a looping effect, attach it to the feet and destroy it.

Just summed up because I currently don't have access to WE.

you should use .03 seconds, and a positive offset value.

For "towards degrees", put UnitFacingAngle(pickedunit)

Shouldn't you store the degrees the caster was facing when he used the spell, and use that?

edit - I understand what you're saying; yes you should do that.

ok i understand it but it got confusing when it go to --For "towards degrees", put UnitFacingAngle(pickedunit)-- so can someone make it in a map and send it to me plz

• Untitled Trigger 001
  • Events
  • Conditions
  • Actions
    • Unit - Move (Triggering unit) instantly to ((Position of (Triggering unit)) offset by 256.00 towards 0.00 degrees)

it's in "point with polar offset"
