Move on water

[Axarion]

I want to create an ability/item that allows the owner to walk on the water like illidan does. I dont know if its possible but any help will give +rep

Change the movement type of your unit to Amphibious.

Edit: check transform abilities.
Otherwise, you could create a script/trigger which detects if the unit is at location x.
If its on water he can enter (when having the ability or item) or else not.

The unit should have Amphibious as his basic movement type though.

When I transform the unit all the time I would need 2 units for every unit D:

The only way is to morph a unit to a another unit with amphibious movement type. So i dont think its possible to do that.

 

[Xarwin]

IT IS possible through the way I say.
It requires various triggers to make it work.

Depending of the number of units, the transforming seems to be the better solution.

You may try the "chaos" ability.

Axarion, you're a vjasser.
I'm pretty sure you can bring up a system which fully supports it.

It's not hard, seriously. You will just need a hidden item to move in front of your unit, towards the facing of your unit. You will check if the point at the item's position is water-filled ((Terrain pathing at (Point1) of type Floatability is off) Equal to False) {Point1 = (Position of item)} and you will also check for the terrain cliff level. If the terrain cliff level is Equal to 0 (this level is applied for the default cliff level the editor has, when it creates a default map) and your unit is moving (a library might be needed here, if you don't want clumsy effects with simple coding, although it can be done just fine), then change your units fly height, to support pathing in the deep water.
