Unit attacks too fast

[RvP21]

Hello everyone.

In the current map i'm making, i've placed some units with a custom model. All of a sudden, the unit has started to attack way much faster than normal. It attacks even so fast that the attack animation sometimes stops halfway. I've used this units in multiple maps and in the other maps happens the same, although i didn't change anything.
Does someone know what the problem could be?

I think this should help:

[Solved] - attack animation - doesn't match sound

Thanks for the fast reply! Sadly enough, it doesn't work. I don't understand where the problem came from because i didn't change anything. Could it be a bug in the model itself (although it has worked fine last month)?

Make sure both of these fields are set up correctly:

Combat - Attack x - Animation Damage Point Combat - Attack x - Animation Backswing Point

Have you thought about checking your triggers and the unit's abilities and agility points (if it's a hero)?

If you can't get the animation to work properly you should probably attach (or link) the model.

You might need to post a demonstration map or video to get more specific help.

I've checked it but it didn't help. I gave the unit the same stats of a troll headhunter to compare. My custom unit is attacking way faster. I've added my map to this post so you can see what i mean. My custom unit is located in the southwest corner of the map. It would be great if someone could check it for me.

It's an issue with the model. The unit isn't attacking any faster, it's just looping it's attack animation which lasts about 1.00 second.

This gives the appearance that the unit is attacking faster but it's attack projectile still only launches once every 2.310 seconds (headhunter base attack cooldown).

I'm no expert on modeling but I'm pretty sure all you just have to do is edit the model and untick "Looping" from the Attack Animation.

You can do this using one of the many modeling tools available or request someone to do it for you in the Requests forum.

Thanks for testing. I'll contact the creator of this model to alert him of the bug.

First double check that I'm correct, because it could be some other weird thing causing the problem.

Uncle is right; here's the fixed model:

Thanks for posting it! I just read the reply of the creator to my message. He says he fixed the bug so i guess you found the repaired model. All of you: thanks for your time and help!

i guess you found the repaired model.

Nope, I have no idea where you got the model, but it literally takes less than five seconds to add the "Non Looping" flag to the attack animation with War3 Model Editor.

Thanks for fixing it then. I do not have any experience with the War3 Model Editor so i guess i'll have to take a look at it in the future.
