Remove rally point button

[TheFrenchLeprechaun]

Hey there!

I would like to know something : is it possible to remove the rally point button which is in every builing that produce units? I just want to hide the icon (like the hidden attack button of the third tier building of Undeads), not to avoid using rally point.

Thanks in advance for your answers!

I guess Ward is the only option.

I'm sorry but I don't know at all what you mean ^^...

Add a Ward classification to the building via trigger function, Unit - Add Classification.
This will hide the UI icon in the unit's UI.

But I guess you can still right-click on the ground for the rally to appear, no ?

 

[TheFrenchLeprechaun]

In a way it works : the button disappears and I can define a rally point by right-clicking. But I can't train units anymore...

You can spam the command card with trainings/sales/abilities/etc to supress Rally.

Try hiding it with spellbook? I'll see if it works later otherwise good luck.

Instead of training make it sell the unit. You might have to contend with 'Select Unit' though.

I just want to hide the button. I still want to use rally point by left-clicking. And selling instead of training will involve no training time, stocks, etc...

I don't really understand what you mean by using spellbook...

 

[Zeatherann]

Make it classified as a ward unit it seems then, that'll allow right-click placing of rally points and hide the icon. According to others posted above.

Training is impossible with this method...

I can vouch that this method works.

Yes, but when I add ward classification to a building, all units and upgrades buttons disappear! Maybe there is something I didn't understand in this method?

 

[Kino]

He said hide it with a spellbook, not add ward classification.
If you add ward classification than obviously the whole UI card goes blank.

 

[TheFrenchLeprechaun]

You're right, my fault! I'll try soon. But what's the method? Because I don't see how to do it this way...

 

[Kino]

You add the rally ability to a spellbook.
You disable the spellbook containing rally.

 

[TheFrenchLeprechaun]

You might think I'm stupid but I don't see what a Spellbook is in wc3 because I'm French, and that the translation of Spellbook in French doesn't really ring a bell for me...

EDIT : I found this, I will try and I'll keep you in touch!

+rep for helpers!

EDIT 2 : I copied/pasted triggers and abilities from the example given on the thread, the "pas book" works good but when I change spell list with Rally it doesn't work... The Rally button displays properly... Someone has an explaination?

EDIT 3 : I also found this thread that isn't really encouraging...

I have tested it and it seems that rally isn't your ordinary ability, but rather another secret from Blizzard... I do know one method that works though, remove Rally from whatever you want then make a dummy unit with the rally ability or a dummy ability to set points to where units get trained and sent too.

Otherwise I haven't found any other method because Rally just doesn't like to stay in its books. =P Though you can still train units without Rally. Sorry that I didn't have the answer you were looking for.

Could you make a test map with this method please?

 

[Tal'Rarity]

Later today or tomorrow I will try unless someone gets to it before me.

Thanks a lot, I'll wait!
