Swim animation bugged.

[SpasMaster]

Recently I discovered a bug with one of my "amphibious" units. It's a hero unit that can walk on the ground but also swim. I've had the hero working properly for some time, but recently I tested him and there appears to be a bug with his swim animation. What's the reason behind this? The last change I did that is connected in some way to the water is changing it's color. Help will be appreciated.

Here is a pic.

Tell us a bit more about its movement type.

Any chance you could reproduce this on a testmap for us to tinker with?

Basically I took a hero (Paladin for example, doesn't matter) and I changed his fields to become a naga (Like model, size, damage). The only thing I changed about his movement was in "Movement - Type: Amphibious" (Was ground)

I can't reproduce it

If I could I would have known what the problem is.

bump.

I tried changing the model of the hero to the regular Naga Myrmidon and to a Murloc. The bug persists.

I've done some testing myself and I also can't find a way to reproduce it.

If you re-create the hero (e.g. copy of paladin), does the bug still persist?

Are you using JNGPE or UMSWE?
If yes, then that's your problem. Those editors remove the effect of water on pathing and thus your unit can walk underwater.

Well... if there are no other options left, you can just add the "swim" animation tag trough triggers when the hero enters the water. I think it will work, even though it sucks hard...

The bug got fixed.... weirdly. The color of the water on the minimap changed after I made some changes. I sound confusing... Here is what happend.

1.I played with water color.
2.Bug persisted.
3.Reverted water color.
4.Bug got fixed.
5.Minimap water color changed.

This whole thing is confusing. I am using the regular world editor.

Weird...

Really strange indeed! Whatever... it is fixed now.
