[trigger] Portal activation

[Krotos]

I haven't found a thread about that, so I'm making one.

I don't know why is this trigger working incorrectly:

• Goldenmist Village dies
  • Events
    • A unit - Elven Town Hall 0232 <gen> Dies
  • Conditions
  • Actions
    • Wait 3.00 seconds
    • Jednostka - Move Portal 0572 <gen> instantly to (Center of Portal2 <gen>)
    • Neutralny budynek - Set Portal 0572 <gen> destination to (Center of Gold Deposits <gen>)
    • Neutralny budynek - Turn on Portal 0572 <gen>
    • Neutralny budynek - Set Portal 0575 <gen> destination to (Center of Goldenmist Village <gen>)
    • Neutralny budynek - Turn on Portal 0575 <gen>

It should work, but the point is: moved portal doesn't teleport units. I checked the waygate, which doesn't have to be moved and it works, however the other one doesn't.

Shorter: I move portal A to region A, then connect it to region B and turn it on, also I connect portal B to region A and turn it on. Portal B works, Portal A doesn't.

Could I get a response as fast as possible? Would be very nice of you.

Your portal must have the Way Gate ability; does it have it?

Yes, it does. Sorry for making it sound unkind or something, but I am not THAT dumb to ask without checking everything before. Also I mentioned already that one of those portals works, but it isn't moved.

Try using a Wait of 0.00 seconds between the action that moves the portal and the action that sets its new destination.
And I can't know if you are dumb, but your title definitely shows you are newbie, so I have to examine every aspect of your problem.

 

[Krotos]

No, sadly there's no effect. Do you have any other ideas? Otherwise I'll have to keep it placed next to the town hall. =/

Try turning the portal off, before moving it to the new destination.

 

[Krotos]

It isn't turned on at all at the beginning, it's activated and turned on only after moving. I'll check it though, maybe it'll give some results.

No, sorry. No results as well.

Ok, I got the solution:

• Actions
  • Set Points[1] = (Center of Region 000 <gen>)
  • Set Points[2] = (Center of Region 001 <gen>)
  • Unit - Move Way Gate 0000 <gen> instantly to Points[1]
  • Unit - Remove Waygate ability from Way Gate 0000 <gen>
  • Unit - Add Waygate ability to Way Gate 0000 <gen>
  • Neutral Building - Set Way Gate 0000 <gen> destination to Points[2]
  • Neutral Building - Enable Way Gate 0000 <gen>
  • Custom script: call RemoveLocation (udg_Points[1])
  • Custom script: call RemoveLocation (udg_Points[2])

Add and remove the waygate ability and then set the new destination.

Problem solved. Thank you for your time and help. ^^

On the other hand: is it Kerrigan? ;o
