movespeed detection system on highlighted unit... how?

[snmiglight]

once i've downloaded an unofficial dota map. in official dota map, when you entered "-ms"; there's a prompt that shows your hero's movespeed. but in the unofficial map, though, when you type it, the prompt shows the highlighted unit's movespeed. how is it done?

i would make it in 2 triggers.

1
Event - unit is selected
actions - set X = selected unit

2
event - game chat msg = -ms
action - show curnet movement speed of X

 

[Exfyre]

that only works for one player.

for multi players:

event
player 1 types "-ms"
player 2 types "-ms"
...
player 12 types "-ms"
cond
act
pick every unit in (units currently selected by triggering player)
game text (move speed of (picked unit))

 

[snmiglight]

how about if i want it to show the unit's name together with its movespeed?

something like this:

(Unit's Name)'s movespeed is (N)

ohhh.. wait what kind of variable should i use? unit or unit group?

 

[istar]

game display text, use substrings
like
substring(Get unit name)+" current movespeed is "+value of ms
theres a get unit name function in GUI somewhere, go find it

Here's the trigger I use in my map:

• Ms
  • Events
    • Player - Player 1 (Red) types a chat message containing -ms as An exact match
    • Player - Player 2 (Blue) types a chat message containing -ms as An exact match
    • Player - Player 3 (Teal) types a chat message containing -ms as An exact match
    • Player - Player 4 (Purple) types a chat message containing -ms as An exact match
    • Player - Player 5 (Yellow) types a chat message containing -ms as An exact match
    • Player - Player 6 (Orange) types a chat message containing -ms as An exact match
    • Player - Player 7 (Green) types a chat message containing -ms as An exact match
    • Player - Player 8 (Pink) types a chat message containing -ms as An exact match
  • Conditions
  • Actions
    • Set TempGroup = (Units in (Playable map area) matching (((Matching unit) is selected by (Triggering player)) Equal to True))
    • Set TempPlayerGroup = (Player group((Triggering player)))
    • Unit Group - Pick every unit in TempGroup and do (Game - Display to TempPlayerGroup for 5.00 seconds the text: (Movespeed of + ((Proper name of (Picked unit)) + <img src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7" class="smilie smilie--sprite smilie--sprite1" alt=":)" title="Smile :)" loading="lazy" data-shortname=":)" /> + (String((Integer((Current movement speed of (Picked unit))))))))))
    • Custom script: call DestroyForce (udg_TempPlayerGroup)
    • Custom script: call DestroyGroup (udg_TempGroup)

If you only want to display the movespeed of the hero (not other units), then just add the condition "Matching unit is a hero" when you set the group.

 

[snmiglight]

are these correct?

• Select Unit
  • Events
    • Player - Player 1 (Red) Selects a unit
  • Conditions
  • Actions
    • Set Movespeed_Group = (Units currently selected by (Triggering player))
    • Set Movespeed_Typer = (Triggering player)

• Movespeed is Typed
  • Events
    • Player - Player 1 (Red) types a chat message containing -ms as A substring
  • Conditions
  • Actions
    • Unit Group - Pick every unit in Movespeed_Group and do (Actions)
      • Loop - Actions
        • Game - Display to (Player group(Movespeed_Typer)) the text: (((Name of (Picked unit)) + &#039;s movespeed is ) + (String((Current movement speed of (Picked unit)))))
    • Custom script: call DestroyGroup(udg_Movespeed_Group)

EDIT: wow it works... but how can i remove the .000? (it shows blah-blah's movespeed is 300.000)

 

[istar]

you dont have to set them as 2 separate triggers
the first event triggers every time the player selects a unit, and if the player selects a unit to do other actions other than -ms(which is pretty often) the actions are redundant
also, you didnt remove units from the group
if player selects A,deselects A ,then B, then C.....then Z, all 26 units are in inside as you didnt remove the deselected units
just

Set Movespeed_Group = (Units currently selected by (Triggering player))

just add this to the second trigger

 

[snmiglight]

oh i see.. ok i'll work on it *grabs WE*

 

[istar]

just a reminder, also put a error msg if player didnt selects any when he type -ms
if you want

Did you totally just skip over the fully working trigger I gave you?

lol, he prefers to DIY it seems haha

 

[Curo]

Lol, well he can at least refer to my trigger to answer his questions.

To get rid of the ".000", convert the real to an integer.

 

[snmiglight]

nope... before i read your post i have already made mine; haven't refreshed the page that's why

that only works for one player.

for multi players:

event
player 1 types "-ms"
player 2 types "-ms"
...
player 12 types "-ms"
cond
act
pick every unit in (units currently selected by triggering player)
game text (move speed of (picked unit))

Leaks too much ; )

Use what the first one supposed, just with X being an array and using
X[ player number of triggering player ] instead of just X.
EDIT: Curos system is fine too, for sure. But IDK if that loop through all units is equally as efficient.

 

[Curo]

But IDK if that loop through all units is equally as efficient.

And running a trigger EVERY time someone selects a unit IS efficient? Sorry if I misunderstood

how? i can't see it

 

[SerraAvenger]

Well the problem Is that the trigger run everytime someone selects a unit will only have a low amount of operations at once, while yours will have more => There's a risk for reaching the OP_LIMIT.

 

[snmiglight]

EXCUSE ME... CAN SOMEONE TELL ME HOW TO GET RID OF THE ".000" I CAN'T SEE WHERE TO CONVERT REAL TO INTEGER. (sorry for the all caps; for nobody seems to hear me.)

 

[AceHart]

It's simple though,
where it waits for you to enter a string, use "conversion - convert integer to string",
that integer will be "conversion - convert real to integer",
the real being whatever you want to show there.

Will look somthing like this:
String(Integer(Movespeed ...))
