Hi all, i am having a problem dectecting Units in front of 45-135 degrees of the caster. Anyone can help me with the formula?

  • (Angle from multi_casterPos to multi_victimPos) Greater than or equal to 45.00
  • (Angle from multi_casterPos to multi_victimPos) Less than 135.00
Is my above trigger correct?

First of all, 45-135 degrees is not in front of, but to the left of caster.
Second, this will always pick units to north of caster, because you didn't consider facing of caster
Correct would be:
angle = Modulo( Angle between points - (facing of caster+90) , 360 )
Unit is in cone if angle<45 or (360-angle)<45
I am going to test it now, but I think it should work like this
