periodically stop auto-attack of unit?

[stan0033]

My point is to forbid a unit to auto attack, but only when ordered. (because the unit is close to the enemy unit)

Change unit''s acquisition range' in Object Editor = 0 ... Thats for all units of this type

You can also change it for a specific unit:

• Unit - Set Unit acquisition range to 0.00

That doesn't work, He still attacks.

 

[IcemanBo]

Oh sorry, I think it's because it's set to 0. Try set it to 1

what you can do as an alternative is just remove their attack

and add a skill that behaves as their attack

Bullshit. That turns off any attack. the point is jsut to turn off auto-attack...

is there any other form of attack then auto attack?

 

[stan0033]

Disable the unit's auto attack. Remove all auto-cast spells. Whenever a unit uses the spell called attack (it targets a unit), enable unit attack and order it to attack the target. Whenever a unit receives an order that isn't casting that attack spell, disable the unit's attack.

If you'd prefer to have the player have to control each and every attack, then just remove the attack altogether and create a spell that hits the units in front or something ;o.

Be sure to disable the attack again when the unit is no longer fighting the target unit (receives an order or the target unit is dead).
