How to use x/y custom script to move certain units.

[iamdl]

Same question what titled said

 

[IcemanBo]

call SetUnitX(whichUnit, 0)
call SetUnitY(whichUnit, 0)

You can put these two lines into "Custom scrip", as I assume you use GUI.
It would move the unit to coordinates 0/0. Replace whichunit with the unit you need.

If you are not sure by what you have to replace whichunit, you can use a unit variable in GUI:

Set myUnit = Triggering Unit Custom script: call SetUnitX(udg_myUnit, 0)

^This will move the unit that is stored in the variable "myUnit" to x-cooridante "0".

how about i want unit move forward?

 

[Lender]

than you have to make some maths

get the angle of the units facing then depending on how far you want to place the unit, u can calculate like

new x = current x + ( distance * cos(angle))
new y = current y + ( distance * sin(angle))

Irrelevant. Just use your normal GUI location variable, just replace the actual move action.

something like this if you want to try DSG's idea.

• Actions
• Actions
  • Set yourUnit = (Triggering unit)
  • Set yourLoc = (Position of yourUnit)
  • Set yourLoc2 = (yourLoc offset by 5.00 towards (Facing of yourUnit) degrees)
  • Custom script: call SetUnitX(udg_yourUnit , GetLocationX(udg_yourLoc2))
  • Custom script: call SetUnitY(udg_yourUnit , GetLocationY(udg_yourLoc2))

Something like that.

Last question which one better the move action in gui or x/y in custom script?

 

[BloodDrunk]

Move action in GUI is slower and heavier, but doesn't ignore pathing, while X/Y ignores pathing and will place unit anywhere, whether the spot is occupied by anything or not.

Thx seems this one help me alot + rep those who helpme
