Wait, won't the caster face the spell targeted location when he casts the spell?

i made caster stop.
arrow will be shooted before caster fully turned to tageted location.

Was just about to say it. The caster must always be angle facing the spell cast.
:thup:

no i think it's not... i made it stop so,
'unit get ordered event' executed before caster totally turned.
caster angle means unit's angle right after ordered something like move.

Huh? i am more concern how to get your spell targeted point at left side, your hero facing right side. It is kinda.............weird, how to get that happen?

If you have trigger, post it up here?

i order caster move to the yellow position in the pic.
but it took caster a second to fully turned.
there is a gap between the blue angle and red one.

huh? even if you move the unit to the spell target point, when your unit cast spell, he should be facing to the casting point.

look at this pic

since your unit turn speed is slow, go to object editor, go to your unit, scroll down to movement - turn rate, set it to 1 or 3 (max)

Doesn't matter if it is possible or not.

location target = GetSpellTargetLoc()
location from = GetUnitLoc(GetTriggerUnit())
location face = PolarProjectionBJ(from, 500, GetUnitFacing(GetTriggerUnit())

location BlackArrow = Location((GetLocationX(target) + GetLocationX(face)) / 2, (GetLocationY(target) + GetLocationY(face)) / 2)

real Your_Angle = AngleBetweenPoints(from, BlackArrow)

I really don't know if there is easier solution.
EDIT: And I hope you know JASS

unit's turn rate is 3.0 already.

location target = GetSpellTargetLoc()
location from = GetUnitLoc(GetTriggerUnit())
location face = PolarProjectionBJ(from, 500, GetUnitFacing(GetTriggerUnit())

location BlackArrow = Location((GetLocationX(target) + GetLocationX(face)) / 2, (GetLocationY(target) + GetLocationY(face)) / 2)

real Your_Angle = AngleBetweenPoints(from, BlackArrow)

thanks a lot.
i will try in this way.
if there is proper way to do it, let me know

Sorry, but I was wrong.
I hope this is correct:

location target = GetSpellTargetLoc()
location from = GetUnitLoc(GetTriggerUnit())
location loc = PolarProjectionBJ(from, 500, AngleBetweenPoints(from, target))
location face = PolarProjectionBJ(from, 500, GetUnitFacing(GetTriggerUnit())

location BlackArrow = Location((GetLocationX(loc) + GetLocationX(face)) / 2, (GetLocationY(loc) + GetLocationY(face)) / 2)

real Your_Angle = AngleBetweenPoints(from, BlackArrow)
