How to not have control

[subressor]

hi. i was wondering how do you make it so that a unit belongs to a player, but that player can't control that unit at all? (e.g. like in castle fight, you select the unit but it doesn't allow you to control it (e.g, move, attack)) thanks

Add the abilty "Wander (Neutral)" to the unit.

no, add unit classification 'warden' to them (maybe it's a ability, not a unit classification), thats how gexxo did it (he's the creator of Castle Fight) but I'm sure there was a thread with the same question a while ago. REMEMBER TO SEARCH BEFORE POSTING

wander (neutral) makes them uncontrollable ,too. But they'll go their own way, like the critters in warcraft3

 

[NhazUl]

There is no classification "Warden", nor an ability. It is "Wander".

look at the healing ward, what's his unit classification,
maybe I did a mistake at translating (my WE is german)

Units with unit classification warden(or whatever u call this) won't have any Command Buttons, and they won't do any Order you'll give them except orders by triggers

 

[NhazUl]

It is Ward.

OK, but if you want the unit to move chaotically, add Wander too.

Does anybody know how this is called in the German WE?

Well, you could just do in triggers pause that unit...and that way it stays there but they cant do anything with it.

Event:
-Time - Elapsed game time is .1 second

Conditon
-None

Action:
-If/Then/Else:
--Condition:
---Picked Unit is alive Equal to TRUE
--Action:
---Pause( pick the unit or set that unit = variable and such)
--Else:
---Do nothing


Talk to me more on AIM Scatterdangel and we can talk more..

You can pause the unit... Of course it wont be able to do anything at that state though.

 

[Arabidnun]

Isnt that kinda the whole point he wants? But if hes just looking for the unit to stay stationary and attack and stuff but just stay in 1 place. Thats another story.

Does anybody know how this is called in the German WE?

in German this Unit classification is called 'Schutzzauber'. Are you German or only your WE? Try the german site warcraft-mapping.de and its Forum.

 

[Triax]

Ja, bin ich. (Yes, I am.)
Gonna try that site, thanks.

But how is wander called?

 

[NO_exe]

Sry I forgot about this, it's called 'Streifzug (Neutral)'
