adding targeted as classification

[Gryffin]

this is what I've got so far. it doesn't work.
the ability is based on slow, with structures added to allowable targets.

I try to attack said building with my other units but it wont allow it.

wat does it say when u try to attack it?
im not sure but in theory (and logicaly) a unit cant be a ground unit AND a flying unit -.-"
thus making the 2nd action completly useless

 

[Gryffin]

for one it says must target air unit. for the other it says cannot target buildings. I tried removing one of the action but it did not make a difference. Any other ideas?

 

[Emu.Man00]

cannot target buildings will always happen unless u change it in object editor; change on the building 'is a building' I think u want it only able to be used on the building under a circumstance, so u can trigger that
make a unit variable (target)
in ur first trigger add as an action

set unit == target unit of ability being cast

unit-[starts casting an ability/is attacked]
conditions-[target unit of ability being cast/attacked unit] == unit
actions-order (casting unit) to stop

and 2nd one is when u do 'add classification flying' it removes the classification 'ground unit' and is thus unattackable by anyone melee with an orb. Does it need the flying classification for something specific? if not just delete it

I tried removing one of the add classifications, but it did not make a difference. The ability casts fine, and I think the rest of the code works fine as well. Its just that adding the classification isnt doing what I want it to. I want the building to be able to be targeted as an air unit, or a ground unit, or both, once the ability is cast.

I don't have WE with me at the moment.
So I cannot verify triggers.

But you can try to do a work-around.
- Make a duplicate of your "Mur'gul Den" in the object editor
- Set it to be targeted as Air / Land / whatever your want.
- Use a Trigger to replace the structure when your Hero cast the spell.

Repeat for all buildings.

yeah, I thought about that. Maybe I'll try it. But if anyone comes up with another way, I'd love to hear it.
