need help.. with bounce off boundary

[mvcthinh]

Hi!. I'm a newbie and I need help.
I want to make a missile which could be bounce off when it reaches the boundary , I try to do that but I cant because I don't know what exactly to write into the condition trigger. Pls check this and help me.

Plus, Here the trigger

when the missile reaches the horizontal boundary , it could bounce off but when it reaches the vertical boundary , It was trapped and can't move anymore.

You have a couple options, either place 4 regions along the boundaries and check if unit is in the region or you can check the terrain tile type which is under the unit so if your map is only one terrain tile type then no problem else you just need to put 1 type along the boundaries.
Lines are:

• ((Playable map area) contains (Triggering unit)) Equal to True

• (Terrain type at (Center of (Playable map area))) Equal to Lordaeron Summer - Dirt

thank you so much.. ^^ It's worked ...

One more thing.. I want to check condition X coordinates of the Unit with min X and min Y of the max without using rect. So how can I do that? I don't know how to call it! I think it could be useful.

OT: tags are [ spoiler ] [ /spoiler ]

You can use real coordinates but it will become excessively complex and not sure it will even work as the coordinates will give you a point, can a unit be in a point? or would you check that the point is within other points?

And why do you not want to use regions?

 

[mvcthinh]

because with every unpassable terrain or doodad have collision size in the map , each one I have to create a region! OMG it will need a long time to finish... But also I can't do both way.
I know Jass so I want to use coordinates instead of point. Because coordinates do not leak memory.
Could you help me?

 

[inevit4ble]

Hmm.
Ok well I can help you, but what is the whole story?

You have the boundaries that it bounces off and the doodads and stuff must bounce the missile too?

 

[mvcthinh]

Thanks! I want to make a spell. Like this spell(Example 4) in JASS Or somespell like that. When I read this spell in GUI but MUI I couldn't understand because the system is too long (lazy ^^!).

could you please show me the way to make it as you said? ["You have the boundaries that it bounces off and the doodads and stuff must bounce the missile too?" - "Yes that's it!"]

 

[inevit4ble]

Ok I've taken a good look, but its really all over the place (jass makes this stuff so much easier to read) so I will need more time to work something out but I am looking into it

Ok, I will wait. Thanks for your help ^^

I can't get the maths perfect but if you have the boundaries find then what you can do (what I got from the snippet) is use something like this:

• Destructible - Pick every destructible within 75.00 of Missile_StartPoint and do (Actions)
  • Loop - Actions
    • Set Missile_FlyAngle = (Angle from Missile_StartPoint to (Missile_StartPoint offset by 10.00 towards (90.00 - Missile_FlyAngle) degrees))

So in the trigger that moves the missile just add (Trigger Run - <Trigger with above actions in it>)

Missile_Start Point is the position of the missile as it moves.
