Need Trigger

[Warcraft33]

If some one could post a trigger of how to make a Unit teleport from one place to another without them choosing to teleport kinda like a booby trap??

 

[Gallin]

ok well i dont no eactly but it goes something liek this
event
unit enters region(region of boobytrap)
condition
triggering unit = to ur unit
action
move instanly to center of region(any region)

 

[PurgeandFire]

(Center of (REGION)) leaks, so you must set it to a variable.

Fill in the values, they are probably quite obvious. xD

• MoveToRect
  • Events
    • Unit - A unit enters (REGION OF TRAP)
  • Conditions
    • <Conditions>
  • Actions
    • Set TrapRegion = (Center of (REGION YOU WANT THE UNIT TO MOVE TO))
    • Unit - Move (Triggering Unit) instantly to TrapRegion <gen>
    • Custom Script: call RemoveLocation(udg_TrapRegion)

Sorry if some of this might be a little confusing or if some of these functions aren't exactly correct, I did this off of memory, not WE because it takes too long to open. xP

 

[Velmarshal]

Simple. Those are basics. But Ive learned the triggers by myself i didnt have a forum to talk to. Oh and by the way PurgeandFire111 is right.
But you forgot the turn off this trigger action. Usualy boobytraps trigger only once.

 

[Ztoph]

how is the variable TrapRegion?

 

[Need_O2]

point .

 

[Ztoph]

• Teal Goal to Grey Spawn
  • Events
    • Unit - A unit enters Teal Goal <gen>
  • Conditions
  • Actions
    • Set TrapRegion = (Center of Gray Spawn <gen>)
    • Unit - Move (Triggering unit) instantly to TrapRegion
    • Custom script: call RemoveLocation(udg_TrapRegion)

This is precisely How my trigger looks, but it dont work. When the Units enters the Teal Goal region, they just walk back to where they came from. Also, is RemoveLocation a Variable?

 

[Need_O2]

it should spawn them to Gray Spawn

 

[Ztoph]

They just keep going from Teal Goal and back to Teal Spawn, where they came from...

 

[Need_O2]

check the regions

 

[Ztoph]

My problem now, is that when the creeps spawn, they just kill my towers, and 20% of the creeps just walk around for a while, and then they walk into my goal region.

Please help me!

 

[Ztoph]

Please! i really need help

 

[Need_O2]

Triggers seem fine unless we dont count the leaks
anyway
problem is goal regions are too small for ordering them to move center
they can return without touching (Idk why they return back) and attack towers
and creeps will attack towerss if they have enough range on creation
dont allow players to build too near of spawn location

make regions bigger or order creeps to move the edges (with offset)

 

[Ztoph]

I have tried to make them bigger, but still, the same thing happens. How do i make them just touch the edges of the region? I can use a Point with offset, but then there just come a (0.00, 0.00). does it need a value?

 

[Rui]

(0.00, 0.00) are (X,Y), which are coordinates of the map. Remember though, that if you choose a point of the region, the offset will probably be...
((the coordinates of location inside the region)+(offset)).
That's my theory, at least. I never used coordinates with GUI.

 

[Ztoph]

but how do i set offset to the edge of the region?

 

[Ztoph]

please! i cant come further wirh my map before i figure this out...

I really need Help!!!

 

[Dr Super Good]

Simply trigger it when a unit enters a region.

Then use the action to set the entering units postion to where you want him teleported to.

 

[Ztoph]

i know, but not all of the units are going in to the region...

 

[Dr Super Good]

Only solution is to make region bigger or order each unit indvidually into the region.

If you mewan that all units are not being moved, then make sure that your move actions are correct and maybe try changing them till they do work.

 

[Ztoph]

how do i order each unit?

 

[Anachron]

Here is your answer:

3 Steps for perfect moving:
1.) Check unit has sight over the area (Maybe add visibly modificier for owner of the player)
2.) Check unit aquireration (Most people say it has nothing to do with that, but I have seen that it does)
3.) Check the unit's owner does not run an KI.

 

[Ztoph]

Then i have some questions.
1.) How do i give the owner sight ower the area?
2.) What is aquireration?
3.) What is KI?

I know that was kinda nooby, but i am a noob at this, i just began world editing a couple of mounths ago, so...

 

[darkrider]

1.) How do i give the owner sight ower the area?

check out the "visibility" part of the triggers (anable/disable)

2.)What is aquireration?

aqcuisition range (i think)

 

[Ztoph]

thanks, i'll try that.

 

[En_Fuego]

Try adding some conditions to those triggers...

• MoveToRect
  • Events
  • Unit - A unit enters (REGION OF TRAP)
  • Conditions
  • Region - Unit Entering (REGION OF TRAP) = to (Unit owned by Player 1 Red)
  • Actions
  • Set TrapRegion = (Center of (REGION YOU WANT THE UNIT TO MOVE TO))
  • Unit - Move (Entering Unit) instantly to TrapRegion <gen>
  • Custom Script: call RemoveLocation(udg_TrapRegion)

If you're using a trigger that involves "Triggering Unit" along with that trigger, lets say...an AI trigger. Then it will conflict and do different things as long as they happen at the same time.

EDIT: Why did it change from Warcraft33 asking the questions to Ztoph?

 

[Ztoph]

Yea! It worked finally! + rep to you, En_Fuego.
Now, i just have a new question. How can i give a tower the bounce ability?

 

[Ztoph]

plz, help me! i cant figure it out

 

[darkrider]

did you try using the night elves ability?

 

[Ztoph]

i cant find any. Where is it?

 

[darkrider]

object editor - upgrades - night elves - Upgrade Moon Glaive

if you want it to bounce even more then set 3 4 or 5 upgrades on the same and make the player owner of the tower to upgrade it... so the shot will bounce more times

(if you want it to varie) if not... just set the amount of bounces

EDIT: you need to add this ability to the tower in order to have the bounce effect

 

[Ztoph]

doesnt have any effect, it is not even shown, like an abillity

 

[Ztoph]

I figured it out, searched around the forum. Doesnt even need the abillity..
