Movement Speed Help Needed

[Faestus]

Hi.

I changed the max movement speed but my units won't move faster, no matter what.

I tried triggering the movement speed but still, nothing.

The movespeed limit is 4000 and I try to make a flying unit move at 3000 units.

Movement Speed is capped at 522 by default.
You cannot go higher than that (even if you modified the values to go beyond that).

There is a system by PurgeAndFire which is http://www.hiveworkshop.com/forums/...rev=search=move%20speed%20GUI%20X&d=list&r=20 in which this system allows you to go beyond that speed.

Actually it is capped to 400 by default
In gameplay constants it can be increased to 522. But this is what you meant, I'm sure.

 

[Faestus]

I used shift+enter to increase it to 4000.

Some units do but others don't move at the certain move speed.

none units move at 4000 movement speed, as mentioned before, it is hard capped at 522
try it with triggers:

• move speed
  • Events
    • Map initialization
  • Conditions
  • Actions
    • Unit - Set Rifleman 0108 <gen> movement speed to 400000.00
    • Game - Display to (All players) the text: (String((Current movement speed of (Triggering unit))))

it will print 522 at max no matter what you do

THIS IS FREAKING AWASOME

 

[Faestus]

Don't know about you, but it's broken for me. So, nope.

 

[edo494]

you need to have JNGP installed otherwise it will bug out

I tried to save it and it didn't let me, same goes when I tried to save it
inside my map, I think some tool is needed to save, ignoring the bug

 

[edo494]

can you show a screen of the error message?

 

[best_player_88]

can you show a screen of the error message?

Just open the map in world editor and click "save", it throws 40 text errors at the screen...

*   REQUIREMENTS
*
*       1.  JassNewGen Pack v5d
*       2.  JassHelper 0.A.2.B
*       3.  Any unit indexer

make sure you have JNGP v5d or v5e, if you dont every line in the code will pop syntax error pretty much

I only found one on the tool section:

[edo494]

this one already comes with JassHelper 0.A.2.B and unit indexer is system like those: http://www.hiveworkshop.com/forums/jass-resources-412/system-unit-indexer-172090/
or for people sticking with GUI: http://www.hiveworkshop.com/forums/...plate-144325/?prev=search=indexer&d=list&r=20
or (imho the better one or at least the more used one):

In my opinion it is better also, this unit indexer. But I still don't understand, should I put this trigger of unit indexer +3 more trigger from movement speed and then save the whole bunch? wouldnt that make the map unreadable afterwards?

 

[edo494]

make the GUI Unit Indexer one trigger, the GUI friendly move over 522 second trigger and in third trigger you do whatever you want, the bribes system is fully automated and if you want to go above 522 speed just call the GUI version of the function

 

[Faestus]

But I just get 100 errors when I test/save the map.

 

[edo494]

can you post a screenshot of the error(what compiler says)?

 

[Faestus]

Unexpected end of line errors.

Expected a reserved type or handle type.

etc

 

[edo494]

thats because you are most likely not using JNGP, normmal compiler doesnt know keywords as library, scope, struct, etc

So for movement speeds under than 522 , the system won't start and hence wont lag?

That's right.

 

[edo494]

just a note: the system will not lag even if you move at speed 1000 it wont lag, it will just work slower because it uses TriggerEvaluation.
While its not that bad to do once in a while, it could be bad if you had tons and tons of TriggerEvals runnnig all the time
the TriggerEvaluation only happens when you call the function so its not that huge problem unless you spam the ability like hell.
Even most GUI systems made by the best users uses TriggerEvaluation, because every time you do run trigger111 <gen> (ignoring conditions) it will do TriggerExecute and if you do checking conditinos it will do TriggerEvaluate and TriggerExecute and they do it quite often
