[Trigger] Projectile System Help

[noob134]

Hi,
I am making a projectile system but i cannot find out how to make my projectiles adjust to the terrain. For example, if i fire my projectile up a hill it will not run into the hill, it will simply walk over it as if were a unit... Can someone help me fix this..

There is a nice function called GetLocationZ(whichLocation).

 

[noob134]

can you please be more specific like how to apply it to my system and how to change the fly height of my projectile instantly that would help
-noob134

 

[aznricepuff]

To change fly height instantly, use Set Unit's Flying Height with a rate of 0.

 

[noob134]

how do i get the height of a location and set it to a variable, please use it in trigger tags because i am noob and thx for fly height thing.

 

[aznricepuff]

Make a global real variable, and name it w/e you want, for example: zHeight

Then to set the z-height of the location to that variable: use this:

• Custom script: "set udg_zHeight = GetLocationZ(yourLocation)"

where yourLocation is w/e location you want to check the z-height for.

I believe this is correct.
Remember to create the variables Height (Real Array) and TempReal (Real).
