Moving unit instantly in triggers without pausing it

[Name_n]

ok its a bit confusing but when a write something like a knockback in a trigger it pauses the unit being knocked back (action - move instantly) in the loop

ive seen in some maps where a unit knocked back could still be issued orders like attacking or using a spell

how do they do this?

could you post your trigger here ?

by the way, this is a simple knockback tutorial.

I would be very interested in seeing those maps you are referring to, because from my point of view, its impossible. Maybe, in some bad knock-back triggers, they could lets say, cast an instant-no target spell, or maybe even attack every now and then, but intentionally having them free to attack/cast, i don't know and i don't believe it is possible.

If I correctly understood your question, you want your unit to keep doing it's orders after being instantly moved (please, correct me if I'm wrong). For what I know, if you use the "Unit - Move Unit (Instantly)" action, the unit will always stop it's orders, no matter what they were (at least, this happens for me).

Well, I set the units coordinates instead of moving it. This works for me, the unit does not stop it's orders. You could do it with these custom scripts:

• Custom script: call SetUnitx(udg_UNIT, GetLocationX(udg_POINT))
• Custom script: call SetUnitY(udg_UNIT, GetLocationY(udg_POINT))

"UNIT" is a unit variable, the unit you want to move; "POINT" is a point variable, the location you want the unit to go.
Hope it helped.

Obviously you never use a SetUnitX/Y function.

Look at my Signature, find the link named "Decelerating Knockback", I think this is what you're looking for.
