[Trigger] How to set unit pitch angle via trigger?

Haley · Apr 3, 2014

I got problem on my spell (Kamehameha). I'm trying to use only 1 dummy with dummy.mdx as the model and i'm using

Custom script: call SetUnitAnimationByIndex(unit, animIndex)

(animIndex is the pitch angle). But what happen when using it, the dummy fly height in OE is 0 but in game, the dummy fly height starts from nearly 200 and decreasing to the desired height (100 that i set via trigger with rate 0).

Can anyone help me with this?
Here's the trigger:

When i disable setting the dummy animation by index, it goes normal but i really need this one.
And one more, the dummy that fly from about 200 is only the main missiles

If you need more info, just say...

first thing you have to understand is

Custom script: call SetUnitAnimationByIndex(unit, 0-180)

90 is normal angle I guess..

so the problem is, the fly height is strangely changed when you use that script?

EDIT:
can you upload the map (with SetUnitIndexById version)?

Nichilus · Apr 3, 2014

JASS:

SetUnitAnimationByIndex

has nothing to do with pitch angle.

Each animated model has set of animations - e.g. the "Footman" model has "stand - 1", "stand - 2", "walk", etc. animations.

Each animation has its own index number, starting with 0.
The command "SetUnitAnimationByIndex" actually forces the model to play animation under index you put inside the command.

Custom script: call SetUnitAnimationByIndex(which_unit, animation's_index_number)

This action has nothing to do with pitch angle, unless the model itself has animations set up in such a way that it would pitch a bit to sides.

I would say that the animation you use is an animation where the model "descends" down from sky.

Xonok · Apr 3, 2014

Technically speaking, you can't change the pitch angle of a unit through triggers.

However, you can make a bone face any direction. Due to this, Dummy.mdx has only a head bone. This is how projectile systems change pitch.

@Dalvengyr
It works just fine! thanks! (+rep)
I add every pitch variables with 90 in the init trigger.

@Nichilus & Xonok
thanks for the reply...

But i got another problem guys, the missile head looks not moving to the right place. When the spell casted, the missile head looks spawn and start from behind of the caster and when the main missiles are moving to the target, the missile head looks moving a bit faster than the other missiles (leaving them behind with about 100 distance). I've already checked the triggers few times, but i can't find what's wrong...

then it's a problem with missile model, to fix it, you need to edit the model using model editor (I think it's problem with model's node/pivot point or something, I don't know)

EDIT:
try to ask about this at modeling section.

ILH · Apr 12, 2014

Model's pivot point never bugged i guess? :/
Or did you mean the missile model is above the model's pivot point?

You can set the model down to the pivot point by model editor
