Unit goes inside Buildings

[The Silver Elf]

hey guys, how can i make multiple units go inside buildings?

 

[GangSpear]

Use the ability of Load?

 

[rcshaggy]

What do you mean actually?

To transport to another spot as inside the building or just a village building and having villagers or units fall out of it, when someone destroys the building, kinda like how in the Pillaging in the Reign of Chaos Campaign where Arthas killed villagers preventing Mal'ganis to control them.

 

[The Silver Elf]

no, what i mean is that units can go inside buildings, like when you want them to "rest" for a while.

 

[supertoinkz]

Is the building a unit or a doodad?

 

[The Silver Elf]

Unit building

 

[supertoinkz]

Go with transports (cargo).

 

[The Silver Elf]

i dont get it. you mean, give the building a cargo skill?

will they regenerate inside?

 

[supertoinkz]

Yes and No.
Yes - Give the building a cargo skill (If that will make you understand it).
No - It will not, that's why you'll need triggering for it.

 

[TheWarchief]

Ok if i got this right...
You want a ability that allows units to enter a building and then when inside they will regenerate faster?
That will need a trigger i think.

 

[Mechanical Man]

They will regenerate if you use cargo ability of a devouring unit, like kodo beast, just set the damage in data field to negative value.

 

[The Silver Elf]

what i mean is this: i need a storage building. like in real life, you can go inside houses. as simple as that. and you still regenerate inside. smeone told me to use the Orc Burrows ability, is he right?

 

[Ironside]

No, use the orc Kodo Beast Devour spell, like Mechanical Man said above. And set the damage per second to a negative value.

 

[Dr Super Good]

The problem with that is you can not undevour units...

 

[TheWarchief]

"Undevouring" Hmm... funny word. Sounds like throwing up.

Oh yeah the topic!

I don't think the devour/undevour idea is good as you can't undevour and you can't set the damage per second to a number below 0.
Actually i think this will need some heavy triggering if it is possible which i begin doubting.

 

[Dr Super Good]

You can set the damage less than 0 via shift clicking.

 

[defskull]

Plus, the negative value for "regen" part is not so efficient, why ?
Because we would like a normal regen, from stats Strength and Item regen and such, not a custom regen, but the actual regen

 

[TheWarchief]

Erhmm... wow.

I tried setting the dps for devour to -50 and then warcraft came up with "FATAL ERROR"
So again... Devour is a bad idea.

hey guys, how can i make multiple units go inside buildings?

lol I thought users would know more about warcraft 3 than I... so, there's the thing...

1.go to Object Editor
2.choose a building you want
3.edit "Abilities - Normal" and add the ability called "Battle Stations"...

that's all hope I helped you, if you couldn't do something just write back...

P.S. I'm still surprised how could anyone who posted before me couldn't come up with that, you guys should play with orcs more often because orc burrows usually have that ability...

 

[chenlimin]

does orc burrows give hp regen? maybe I haven't play orc for too long

Your post simply shows that you didnt fully read the first post. He wanted the unit to regenerate hp while inside a building.

By the way, I don't really like the sentence which I bold-ed and underlined.

why? I just said that I'm not even a proffesional of world editor but even I know that thing and how could people who know world editor well couldn't come up with that, it's kinda strange... besides, you can just add some healing nearby units ability to the building and that's all I think...
