Making a building build in like 0.01 secs?

[siDeKicK]

Hey, siDeKicK here,

As you know, i am making a TD and i want to make the towers take like 0.01 SECS to build/upgrade, does ANY one know how to change and make it 0.01 secs?

I made the build time 1 sec, but it is still to slow =\!

Thanx,

siDeKicK

• Events
  • Unit - a Unit starts the constuction of a Unit
• Conditions
• Actions
  • Unit - order constructing Unit to stop
  • Unit - replace constructed Unit with a Unit of type constructed unit

don't know if the stop action is necessary, was just a thought

Yay, thanx dude, it works, but when i start to construct the unit, it builds like one block away from where i want it to build... why !!

Heres my trigger:

• QUik Build
  • Events
    • Unit - A unit Begins construction
  • Conditions
  • Actions
    • Unit - Replace (Constructing structure) with a (Unit-type of (Constructing structure)) using The old unit's life and mana

or you just set the Build time in the Object editor to 0? Shift-Click is your friend

hm, don't know why it does that, try razorbrains way, if that doesn't work i'll try to find out whats wrong

The quickest way possiable would be to trigger it on the begins construction event and then use a timer to delay action for one cycle (the smallest unit of time possiable in WC3). Then you instantly set its construction process to max and it would be built.

However 1 second should be fast enough in any situation.

SIgh.. The minimum build time is [1]!! You cant put it 0 secs!

Can you show me a trigger of what you are talking about ?!

Thanx,

you CAN set the value in object editor to 0, you can even set it to -1(although i don't know what will be caused by that), just hold the Shift-key when you double click the field, i don't know if it will work ingame, try it out

lol thanx guys... but i FINALLY worked it out in trigger editor...

Trigger:

• QUik Build
  • Events
    • Unit - A unit Begins construction
  • Conditions
  • Actions
    • Unit - Order (Triggering unit) to Stop
    • Wait 0.01 seconds
    • Unit - Replace (Constructing structure) with a (Unit-type of (Constructing structure)) using The old unit's life and mana

Wait 0.01 seconds will delay for 0.3+ seconds in multiplayer as if you read its description it opperates to only 0.1 inaccuratly in single player. The acuracy is lowered further in multiplayer (longer delay). Thus the only way to really build in 0.01 seconds would be to use a timer (a special object) to delay your actions. Those remain 100% accurate in both single and multiplayer (same delay for both) and support a lower delay that the wait you are using (Wait (TriggerSleepAction()) only supports down to 0.1 seconds while timers cas easilly support 0.01 or lower times (including 0 which gives nearly no delay).
