[Solved] Unit Collision

[maddeem]

I have a slight problem. I've created a system that when a unit dies it creates items in a corpse. (The corpse is the unit in death animation)

Problem is the unit takes up pathing, and I simply can't have this.
Is there any way to have units able to walk over said unit?

 

[overcold_ice]

use jass' code
it ignores pathing . . . .

Creates items in the location of where a corpse is?

Corpses don't take up pathing, so if you are just setting a living unit to play its death animation of course it will take up pathing.

You could add locust to the unit and see if that works.

call SetUnitPathing(unit, false)
That should do it.
To give units pathing, use "true" instead of "false".

 

[Bribe]

That disables that specific unit's need to consider pathing, but other units will need to consider its collision size still.

I know this because I tried to do that to "simulate" a wind walk (originally I wanted my Assassin hero in WarChasers 2 to get to a level where she could perma-windwalk)

Ooooo wow thanks Bribe you just gave me an awesome idea
Give the corpses wind walk
Oh I'll explain more in depth this system.

When a unit dies it creates a separate unit of the same type for neutral passive and has it play death animation at the point of the dying unit. That is the corpse unit/dummy. It then creates another dummy unit called corpse which is created at the same point with 6 inventory slots for the killing unit. This unit is given all the items that are to drop from the monster. When the dummy unit is selected it selects the holder corpse allowing people to distribute items.

The problem was units could not walk around said corpses, creating a blockade xD
Or I could use locust... Hmm

 

[Cokemonkey11]

wind walk will turn the "dead" unit invisible to enemy players.

Try locust first.

Edit: leet-th post!

Yup I used locust and redid most of the system, tis much better now.
