Trigger Help !

[magIc_seeKer]

I have a DotA-like map and I want to spawn 3 lanes of creeps but for no reason, when the creeps reach the requested dummy unit (top/bottom lane which are "L" lanes, and there has to be a dummy unit at the corner to redirect the units to the enemy base), they turn around and walk back to base o.o.

I looked over the triggers over and over again and couldn't find anything wrong. Here's the code :

• Events
  • Time - Every 30 seconds of the game.
• Conditions
  • (Barracks is alive) equal to true.
• Actions
  • Unit - Create 3 Footman for Player 1(Red) at (Center of Human Barracks Top <gen>) facing Default building facing degrees.
  • Unit - Create 1 Priest for Player 1(Red) at (Center of Human Barracks Top <gen>) facing Default building facing degrees.
  • Unit Group - Order (Units in Human Barracks Top<gen>) to Attack-Move to (Position of Top Lane Point 0038<gen>)

• Events
  • Unit - A unit comes within 300 of Top Lane Point 0038<gen>.
• Conditions
  • (Owner of Triggered Unit) equal to Player 1(Red).
• Actions
  • If ((Owner of (Triggering unit)) Equal to Player 1 (Red)) then do (Unit - Order (Triggering unit) to Attack-Move To (Position of Fortress 0021 <gen>)) else do (Do nothing)

Top Lane Point is the dummy unit.
Fortress is the enemy end-game building.
Human Barracks Top is the region where the units spawn.

this is only for 1 lane but i have problems on both lanes of each team.

• AI - Ignore Your unit's guard position

Afaik this will do.

can you explain what does that code do cause it didn't do anything for me...

 

[claptomanic]

that line ignores the return range/distance from the position neutral hostile units are created/placed.

for your question :

in gameplay constants are 2 lines. (they are not the exact names of the lines but you should be able to find them)
1. Return distance
2. return time

set both of them to a high value....that should solve it.

I thought that Ignore Guard Positions are the functions which work here.( Actually never had to use such thing )

@claptomanic

i set those 2 values to 9999... but still nothing.
any other suggestions that i could try?

 

[claptomanic]

the only possibilities i can think of at the moment beside the return time and distance is that the path is blocked or the unit they are ordered to is at the wrong place.

 

[magIc_seeKer]

nope it wasn't that.

i finally fixed it, i just remade the triggers and now works fine .

well thanks for the help, +rep to both of you for trying .
