unit in region condition?

[corley]

is there a condition where you can check a unit uses an ability in a set region?

I want to make a "talk" ability, but need a way to check the talking hero is in the region next to an NPC? or is there another method of doing this?

This is one way to do it:

• Untitled Trigger 074
  • Events
    • Unit - A unit enters Region 001 <gen>
  • Conditions
  • Actions
    • Unit Group - Add (Triggering unit) to Check_Group

• Untitled Trigger 075
  • Events
    • Unit - A unit leaves Region 001 <gen>
  • Conditions
  • Actions
    • Unit Group - Remove (Triggering unit) from Check_Group

• Untitled Trigger 076
  • Events
    • Unit - A unit Starts the effect of an ability
  • Conditions
    • (Ability being cast) Equal to ...
    • ((Triggering unit) is in Check_Group) Equal to True
  • Actions

Why so complicated?

There is a condition "unit - unit in region".

It's even more easy (because you don't need any regions) when you use the condition "(Distance between (Position of (Target unit of ability being cast)) and (Position of (Triggering unit))) less than 400.00" (Real Comparison).

Channel is the best spell to manipulate with triggers, because you can change the Base Order ID.
