need help with some variables...

[angelx]

I relly hate this forum's search sistem............

Never mind..... I wanna know the variables to make a unit go to a point with higher speed than 522....Plz need help...I'm new at war3 modeling.....

you can only move the unit instantly there, but that has nothing to do with variables, its a simple action: Unit - move Unit instantly to region
522 is maximum movement speed

man...i know how to move it instantly....but wht i meant it was something as moving unit to a point continous and when the unit moves to the point the point moves forward.....

it's relly hard to explain

That's why we use periodic events. Every .04 seconds or so, move the unit towards a point, checking to see if it's reached it or not.

exacly wht i was searching for ....can u make me a model for that variable plz ?

I don't think you understand what a variable is. A variable is a blank piece of data that stores information. They come in two varieties: global and local. If you set a variable to be 1, every time you use that variable, it will be one. Example:

• set i = 1

Every time you use "i", it will have the value of one.

What you're looking for is a trigger that fires every .04 seconds and moves the unit towards an angle between the unit and the point, through the Unit - Move function and the disabling of collision, or SetUnitX() and SetUnitY() if you use JASS.
