Is there an ability to increase range?

 

[millzy]

the only thing is the upgrade for long range riffles there is no ability for increasing the range

 

[Dr Super Good]

Upgrades affect all units of a player with a unit type configured to be effected by it and can not be lowered below the currently researched level for the player (unresearching is impossible).

No but you can trigger it via editing the Aquire unit range with triggers depending on A Dummy abillity's level

That does not work. Trigger edited aquire range does not change the range of a unit although the field in the object editor can.

 

[Brambleclaw]

What i meant was you set a units range to a max range but have the aquire range as the true range and then use triggers to edit it to w/e u want. Since if you cant aquire a target you cant attack it... Or i thought it was like that anyway

I.e

Range 9999999999999
Aqui Range 500

i think thats what they did In CHLW for the range abillity or something like that.

 

[Dr Super Good]

Nope, that will give your unit 500 range. Changing aquire range via triggers will not change the unit range at all. It should however mean you will start to attack at different times.

If you give a unit with 2000 range an aquire range of 500 via triggers (as it will need a base of atleast 2000 inorder to have that range), I imagine it can shoot 2000 range but will not automatically aquire a unit until it reaches 500 range (ordering it should still give access to all 2000 range).

oh okay my mistake thanks for clearing that up then

Didn't tyrande or whatever her name was have an aura that increased range and damage?

If you mean the priestess of the moon, then she just had true shot aura which increased ranged attack damage (not the range of the attacks, just the damage of attacks that are not "melee").

She had a searing arrow that should increase her range, but the way autocasting the arrow works (replacing attack) meant it instead was always limited to her range when attacking normally but could be cast manually further at high levels.
