How to use Flying Height

[Rheiko]

Maybe i'm just wasting your time here for a simple question
but i don't get how to use this?

• Animation - Change MyUnit flying height to Height at Rate

 

[Cokemonkey11]

height is a real number which is the new flying height of MyUnit, and Rate is the duration of the change.

So Change MyUnit flying height to 200.0 at 0.0 will instantly change MyUnit's flying height to 200.0

MyUnit must be capable of having a flying height though.

Set to 200 at 100 rate, it will take you 200/100 = 2 seconds to get up there.
Set to 800 at 6 rate, it will take you 800/6 = 133 seconds to get up there.

And so on.

thanks guys!

i don't know why but it still doesn't work..

If you're trying to set a unit's flying height which has movement type other than flying, you have to do this small trick:

if UnitAddAbility(udg_MyUnit,'Arav') then
    UnitRemoveAbility(udg_MyUnit,'Arav')
endif

but it's already in fly movement type

Post the script please.

Edit: If it has fly movement type, you might have a problem with the flying height minimum and flying height maximum values

Rate is the duration of the change.

Not the duration but the delta per second. A rate of 0 will still set the unit to the target height immediately.

now it works, thanks cokemonkey and everyone elses

Whoops, yeah I misworded that.
