Unit refuses to change ownership

Boar · May 28, 2013

Righty, is it impossible change the ownership of locusted units?

I can supply the triggers I'm using if needed

Edit: I've tried removing locust and same problem still persists. Triggers and map are posted in comments below

You could just replace the unit. I think it won't change ownership because of the locust ability.

Boar · May 28, 2013

Eh, the problem is that I'm using it in a hashtable based spell, so replacing it completely stops if from working

Maker · May 28, 2013

It is possible and works just fine.

Maybe you are picking units in range, it doesn't pick units with locust. Pick units owner by player.

Boar · May 28, 2013

Hrmm, then what on earth am I doing wrong here?

It should be changing ownership, heck. It's even outputting the string so it is being called, but it isn't changing.

This function can not pick units with Locust.

Boar · May 28, 2013

Oh, Sorry. The units in the group it loops through first have locust. The second unit group doesn't

Nichilus · May 28, 2013

So what doesn't work? The first group or the second one?

Maker · May 28, 2013

I see. Post a test map.

Boar · May 28, 2013

Maps attached, no editor addons required

The trigger is in folder "Fire Demon", initilization trigger is "Fbini"

HammerFist132 · May 28, 2013

Two solutions
1.Every unit have it's own rights, this is democracy, and if unit refuses there is nothing you can do.
2. Just give him money, or hit him few times.

Sorry I had to do it

DESTROYER123 · May 28, 2013

Big trigger you got there.
Nice.
My triggers are 15-20 lines with some sets and some waits and all this noob stuff.

You'll get there. The only reason this is so complex is because I need it to be MUI.

Also, any ideas on what is stopping it from changing ownership?

U can easily test everything with game display, just adding them almost after every condition, and if u want to check what is already set on variables.

p.s. If u do this just remove time every 0.03sec. Better change it to when player pushes ESC, because it will spam a lot or may even crash wc3. (once I managed to do that with game display

)

Yeah, I'm testing to see if it works by using a string test. It's always outputting the wrong things though. So it isn't working

Boar · May 31, 2013

Hey, sorry guys. The problem still isn't solved, any help would be amazing

Faestus · May 31, 2013

Remove locust ability?

Tried that, apparently it still doesn't work. Whoops, I should probably update main post. Thanks

Boar · Jun 3, 2013

Been mucking around with everything and it's just not working no matter what I try. I mean, it should be working based off the triggers. But it isn't.
