Gliding system, units stop gliding when one collide with terrain?

Greetings, long story short I'm trying to make a gliding system in Jass. It's supposed to handle all forms of gliding/knockback in my and my friends map and I'm currently still working on it and got some issues with it.

When I test it I use a basic target location spell, when the spell is cast a trigger is run creating a dummy unit and giving the dummy it's own custom value and variable data fit for that specific spell.

The gliding system runs through every unit on the map each time, checking if it's in the AUDKBGroup (AllUnitDataKnockBackGroup), if it is it will be moved the distance towards the angle according to that specific unit's variable data.

Now sending out a dummy so it glides away works fine, until it hits something like deep water or a doodad. When it does all dummies immedietly stops and the "sticky" debug message starts to be spammed out, which is weird because from this spell that particular message should always be sent out because this spell is considered "sticky". (Variable set when the spell is cast.)

Anyways here is the code, I have been wrestling with it for about a week now and can't come up with a working solution (so much for long story short... ^^):

function StickyCondition takes nothing returns boolean
    return GetBooleanAnd(IsUnitAliveBJ(GetFilterUnit()) == true,IsPlayerEnemy(GetOwningPlayer(GetFilterUnit()), GetOwningPlayer(GetEnumUnit())) == true)

    Crazy how much 3d printing has come in the last few years. Sad that it's not as easily modifiable though
  • Varine Varine:
    I bought an Ender 3 during the pandemic and tinkered with it all the time. Just bought a Sovol, not as easy. I'm trying to make it use a different nozzle because I have a fuck ton of Volcanos, and they use what is basically a modified volcano that is just a smidge longer, and almost every part on this thing needs to be redone to make it work
  • Varine Varine:
    Luckily I have a 3d printer for that, I guess. But it's ridiculous. The regular volcanos are 21mm, these Sovol versions are about 23.5mm
  • Varine Varine:
    So, 2.5mm longer. But the thing that measures the bed is about 1.5mm above the nozzle, so if I swap it with a volcano then I'm 1mm behind it. So cool, new bracket to swap that, but THEN the fan shroud to direct air at the part is ALSO going to be .5mm to low, and so I need to redo that, but by doing that it is a little bit off where it should be blowing and it's throwing it at the heating block instead of the part, and fuck man
  • Varine Varine:
    I didn't realize they designed this entire thing to NOT be modded. I would have just got a fucking Bambu if I knew that, the whole point was I could fuck with this. And no one else makes shit for Sovol so I have to go through them, and they have... interesting pricing models. So I have a new extruder altogether that I'm taking apart and going to just design a whole new one to use my nozzles. Dumb design.
  • Varine Varine:
    Can't just buy a new heatblock, you need to get a whole hotend - so block, heater cartridge, thermistor, heatbreak, and nozzle. And they put this fucking paste in there so I can't take the thermistor or cartridge out with any ease, that's 30 dollars. Or you can get the whole extrudor with the direct driver AND that heatblock for like 50, but you still can't get any of it to come apart
  • Varine Varine:
    Partsbuilt has individual parts I found but they're expensive. I think I can get bits swapped around and make this work with generic shit though
