Hey guys, new here (and is my first post)

I recently played the map 'Warlock' which I thought was one of the best maps I have played, and every time I walked onto ice, I would slide, or if I was to be hit from a spell, I would slide.
This gave me an idea of a map which involves drifting (with cars, not units)

Does anyone know how to create this effect?
I have google searched on how to slide, but it only created simple effects which did not suit what I was looking for.

What i am looking for is a effect which a unit can slide and change directions but also allowing the car to slide on angle, like in 'Warlock'

if you do not know what map I am talking about it is ----v

If possible, can someone create a map with the triggers in it, or make a step by step guide.

I have tried what I could come up with but it ended in Epic Failure...:cry:

Any help is appreciated.

try going to the unit editor and set the unit orientation interpolation to 8 or 9 and its turn rate to 0.50 or so (lower than 0.25 won't do). i used it to make my helicopter slide a bit.

You could make a trigger making the unit slide.. For example:

This activates the moving trigger:
  • Unit - A unit Finishes casting an ability
  • (Ability being cast) Equal to Ability casted HERE
  • Trigger - Turn on moving unit <gen>
  • Wait 1.00 seconds
  • Trigger - Turn off moving unit <gen>
This IS the moving trigger:
  • Time - Every 0.05 seconds of game time
  • Unit - Move UNIT instantly to ((Position of UNIT) offset by 30.00 towards (Angle from (Position of CASTING_UNIT) to (Position of UNIT)) degrees)
