Unit Model Scaling via Triggers

[emperor_d3st]

Heyo,

I want to increase/decrease the Scale Size of units during the game by a delta, and not to certain set numbers. For example, unit uses an ability, gets +0.1 scale size.

I had to find out that there is no GetUnitSize function.

I could invest a lot of time to build a library of my ~200 unit's default scale size and use hashtables and long algorithms to create a very annoying system that does what I want, but there should be a more eloquent way of doing this.

Is there a way to do what I want? Is there some ability in the game that modifies model size?

avatar, bloodlust (shaman skill, or the selfcast frenzy) would be some.

Thanks. That should be a better workaround than the library thing. *shakes fist at Blizzard for not implementing that GetUnitSize function*

Apparently one can automate the construction of such libraries. The feature broke in JNGP long ago and I am not sure if sharp craft supports similar yet.

Isn't there a function which scales using % by default?

Yes, but it's an absolute percentage, overwriting what's set in the object editor. They have custom sizes defined that they want to be considered the normal size for the purpose of scaling.
