Archer on a Tower

[Sevion]

Hmm. I'm making the entrance to a city and I have two scout towers. I want to put two archers on top of them so it looks like they're standing at the top of the towers like look outs. I thought about just spawning them with triggers and creating an invisible platform there. Not too sure though. Any thoughts?

 

[Atreyu]

I changed the DragonHawk's rider with a archer instead. And Placed him a top of the tower setting his Move speed to 0. If the tower dies. So do the archer.

Events
 A unit dies
Condtions
 Dying Unit equal to Scout Tower
Actions
 Kill Archer.

Hmm. I see. I'll try it out tomorrow.

if it is only for scouting, not for shooting you can always make it a destructible with the archer model and then use control page up to put it on the tower...

 

[Sevion]

Well, it is supposed to shoot at any approaching enemies. It's a defense thing for the city.

OK. I just set it's move speed to 0 and move height to 225. It fits perfectly.

why don't you just set


Animation -> Change Flying height X at Rate 0 (instant i guess)

Untitled Trigger 001
    Events
        Time - Every 2.00 seconds of game time
    Conditions
        (Variable Unit is dead) Equal to True
    Actions
        Unit - Create 1 Archer for Player 1 (Red) at (Center of Region tower <gen>) facing Default building facing degrees
        Animation - Change (Last created unit) flying height to 250.00 at 0.00

Instant would be 10000 or higher this rate 0 does nothing.

0 is instant. Warcraft 0 is not equal to real-life zero.

Don't you have to add "flight form" to a unit to allow you to change it's movement hight.

But why don't you just make a custom unit in object editor and change it's movement hight there?

I've already solved the problem...
