Uncontrollable unit

[Lannik]

How to make a player cannot control its own unit. The player still can select its own unit. The unit is selectable and can be targeted by enemies. I dont want to deselect the unit

Add Locust?
Change ownership of the unit to a computer-controlled player?

Locust will make the unit untargetable.
Switch the unit to an allied player which is only used for the purpose of this.

BUT My map have 12 players which are controlled by user.

example lol?

• Lol
  • Events
    • Unit - A unit owned by Player 1 (Red) Is issued an order targeting a point
  • Conditions
  • Actions
    • Unit - Order Footman 0000 <gen> to Stop
    • Selection - Clear selection

Maybe something like,

• Untitled Trigger 001
  • Events
    • Unit - A unit owned by Player 1 (Red) Is issued an order targeting an object
    • Unit - A unit owned by Player 1 (Red) Is issued an order targeting a point
    • Unit - A unit owned by Player 1 (Red) Is issued an order with no target
  • Conditions
  • Actions
    • Unit - Pause (Triggering unit)

Or maybe like,

• Untitled Trigger 001 Copy
  • Events
    • Map initialization
  • Conditions
  • Actions
    • Unit - Pause (Random unit from (Units owned by Player 1 (Red) matching (((Matching unit) is A Hero) Equal to True)))

What will the unit be doing while uncontrolled? Nothing? Give us a little bit of context.

 

[Lannik]

In my map, few creeps are created via trigger and they are ordered to patrol to certain places. The creeps are owned by player. I dont want that player to control that creeps by ordering them to attack or move.

You can add the "ward" classification to those units. This hides the command card and only allows the player to use right-click ("smart") commands.
You can then prevent the player from using right-clicks by simply catching the smart order and cancelling it.

Btw, ward units can still cast spells through scripts and triggers.
