[Trigger] Sliding on Ice

[FrOzEnInTiMe]

I have world editor unlimited and I'm trying to figure out how to get the slide trigger to work properly
Does this trigger only allow you to slide straight or can you turn on the ice if you can't turn then can you help me get the turning to work as well

oh god dont use it, its dated and I would be surprised if it worked correctly.
For things such as this you need JASS.

You don't need JASS to slide on ice. Simply create a periodic trigger that picks every unit, if the unit is on the terrain type of ice, you then should use a little bit of JASS to move the unit which involves SetUnitX/Y so it can be instantly moved while still being able to be issued orders. You move the unit to its current position plus a certain amount of distance towards the angle that the unit is facing.

can you be more specific on how to do this which triggers do I use maybe an example would be helpful

go here, search for "ice trigger" http://epicwar.com/maps/search/

Do not bother using WEU, it has no advantages over the jass new gen editor that was made. Infact WEU can break your map and even make it lag more than it should.

So then what's your fix? I also need it for my map, so any 'ulti-super-duper' version availble is needed.. If not for the tutorials, than for those who ask!

I'm currently modding a lossless GUI code. If you know better than please share instead of talking for talking's sake. Thanks!

eh if you want a ice slide trigger just pm me, its easy in gui and jass
moving a unit across x/y coordinates is of course better but most gui users use PolarProjection >_< JASS is very useful when using x/y cus u can get a units X Y POINT with

call GetUnitX()
call GetUnitY()

therefore eliminating using 2 points and just using one point.
edit: one point is the point the unit is going to slide to ;D

*0 points?

 

[HappyTauren]

well, there are LOCATIONS and POINTS as they are called in jass.
GetUnitX(bleh) and GetUnitY(bleh) returns a real value (theoretically called "point"), which thus makes it leak nothing. Point != locations

locations are different variable type, that create an object each time you use Location(x,y)

 

[PurplePoot]

Coordinates, actually, not Points, HT.

Point = GUI name for location.

 

[HappyTauren]

Points = Coordinates = XY shit in JASS, which I was referring to
