[Trigger] Problematic Motion Order

[Jory]

Hi guys, I've got a weird problem with making unit move specific distance.
I want him to march SMOOTHLY and EXACTLY into middle of nearby tile after pressing an arrow key. At the moment unit is moving too short.

There goes the trigger: (there are separate triggers for each arrow and player)

• Red Up
  • Events
    • Player - Player 1 (Red) Presses the Up Arrow key
  • Conditions
  • Actions
    • Set TempLoc1 = (Position of Footman 0000 <gen>)
    • Set TempLoc2 = (TempLoc1 offset by (0.00, 128.00))
    • If (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions)
      • If - Conditions
        • (Terrain type at TempLoc2) Not equal to Lordaeron Summer - Rock
      • Then - Actions
        • Trigger - Turn off Red Left <gen>
        • Trigger - Turn off Red Right <gen>
        • Trigger - Turn off Red Down <gen>
        • Trigger - Turn off Red Up <gen>
        • Unit - Order Footman 0000 <gen> to Move To TempLoc2
        • Wait (128.00 / (Current movement speed of Footman 0000 <gen>)) seconds
        • Game - Display to (All players) the text: (Debug Message: Distance to Circle of Power: + (String((Distance between (Position of Footman 0000 <gen>) and (Position of Circle of Power 0001 <gen>)))))
        • Trigger - Turn on Red Left <gen>
        • Trigger - Turn on Red Right <gen>
        • Trigger - Turn on Red Down <gen>
        • Trigger - Turn on Red Up <gen>
      • Else - Actions
        • Unit - Make Footman 0000 <gen> face 90.00 over 0.50 seconds
    • Custom script: call RemoveLocation(udg_TempLoc1)
    • Custom script: call RemoveLocation(udg_TempLoc2)

I tried many different solutions - none satisfy me enough. Any ideas?

Move him using the SetUnitX/Y natives then make him play walk animation rather than ordering him continuously...

tyvm!
+rep
problem solved

EDIT: Thanks to this script i can make one set of triggers working for every player in game! Thats much better than i even imagined it could be.

You could use arrays and not need separate triggers for each player.

Noticed another problem. After expanding the trigger i fount out that killing an enemy makes unit return to its starting position. Issuing Stop order every tile doesn't help, but its required to abandon attacking.

Also: sometimes for unknown reason units start march and never stops.
