Walk Duration Calculation ?"!?!"?

[bboy-tiger-]

Can i calculate how long time is required to unit walks from point A to point B ?
My unit's speed is 550. Range X, X is number beetwen A and B, and i must count that, its range beetwen Casting unit's and target point where i cast spell.

Anyway, i need this coz: when unit casts a spell, a rocket flyes from casting unit to target point of ability being casted,and when rocket is created, at start, it must go up, and close to target, must go down again; want it more realistic.

A nice idea, but i don't think thats how you would do it.

To get it you do distance/move speed = time.

 

[Day-Elven]

Distance between position of triggering unit to point * / default movement speed of triggering unit

Y, just tested it, it wont work good... so what is solution to make unit go up at start, and in range, lets say 1000 of target starts to go down ?

Don't doublepost. Just use the 'edit' button.

I deleted post, i think there isnt this opinion in edit, but nvm now, so pls someone tell me how to do what i want.

 

[Slaydon]

How are u thinking, is the unit / hero moving Left/Rigth/North/South/all?

 

[TheBlooddancer]

bboy, do as squiggy said. its correct now.

 

[Slaydon]

Did Squiggy say anything? I dont see his post..

Haha, me to, he probbly deleted, its moving from casting unit to the point where unit casts ability(where I want), directly moving.
Btw, this works fine, but where leaks, becouse it starts to lagg if i set all "For each (Integer A) from 1 to 100, do (Actions)" to 100, if i set to 10 its ok,but it leaks i supose.

OK LAST TRIGGER LEAKS, WHY?

 

[Slaydon]

Put in ELSE: Do Nothing

 

[Eleandor]

Do NOT put that in "else" unless you're trying to make your triggers more inefficient.

 

[Smiddle]

Yeah, "do nothing" literally does nothing, it's like the above poster said, inefficient.

 

[Eleandor]

To be exact, "do nothing" actually does something: it calls a function with an empty body. And another function call = a small performance decrease, so simply don't use "do nothing".
