Camera problem that no one can solve!

[georgie]

Hey im still gettin the same problem and i really dunno whats wrong!!!

What i want is after the unit is bought and placed at the players start location, the camera pans over to that unit in a period of 3 seconds. But the camera panning isn't working!

Camera - Pan camera for (Owner of (Sold unit)) to (Position of (Sold unit)) over 3.00 seconds

Is my code.. after many suggestions, it still does not work!!!

and these are the two lines before it, which work just fine!

If (((Trained unit) is A Hero) Equal to True) then do (Unit - Remove (Triggering unit) from the game) else do (Do nothing)
and
If (((Trained unit) is A Hero) Equal to True) then do (Unit - Remove (Triggering unit) from the game) else do (Do nothing)

Thanks for the help .... lol

OMG I already said, pan the camera to the players start location... Its probrably panning to its location to early so it goes near the shop not where its moved to

These heros are sold from a tavern? If that is the case I would create a region around the tavern and then have this trigger

<not exact code>

Events: A unit enters region <Region around Tavern>

Conditions: <Triggering Unit> is a Hero equal to True

Actions: Unit - Move <Triggering Unit> to <Start Location of <Owner of <Triggering Unit>>
Camera - Pan camera to <Position of <Triggering Unit>> over 3.00 seconds.

Rad stop yelling as i told you in both my other topics, your idea did not work! sheesh why do you keep saying OMG I TOLD PFJAL:KJSDFL:KJASDLK: okay i know your trying to help, but your not,a nd all that's happeneing really is your making me look dumb

Anyways this is the idea.. You have a building which you choose your hero from (you do not need a hero selector blah blah balh) you have your own buildiong. Choose your hero from that building. The hero is moved to your start location then the building is destryoed. All that works except for the camera pan thing!

 

[Rad]

Event: Unit <Sells a unit>
Condition: Boolean - <Sold unit> is a hero equal to true
Action: Unit - Move <Sold Unit> instantly to (Owner of <Sold unit>) start location
Action: Camera - Pan camera for (Owner of <Sold unit>) to (Owner of <Sold unit>) start location

Whats wrong with that??

 

[georgie]

you want me to try that code? k i will if it works i owe you like 4 dollars

 

[Rad]

wewt 4 dollars, a few more deals like this and i can get my #7 from jack in the box!!

 

[georgie]

eh you don't get your four dollars

this is my code and it don't work

Events
Unit - Hero Chooser 0013 <gen> Sells a unit
Conditions
Unit - Hero Chooser 0013 <gen> Sells a unit
Actions
Unit - Remove (Selling unit) from the game
Unit - Move (Sold unit) instantly to ((Owner of (Sold unit)) start location)
Camera - Pan camera for (Owner of (Sold unit)) to ((Owner of (Sold unit)) start location) over 3.00 seconds

And nothing happens.. lol

building stays there.. unit spawns next to the building.. and no camera pan

Try my method please. As long as the <selling unit> is not normally ascessible durring the game it should work fine.

Also, remove that condition. Thats probably the problem.

Events
Unit - Hero Chooser 0013 <gen> Sells a unit
Conditions
Unit - Hero Chooser 0013 <gen> Sells a unit

?? Thats not a condition lol

If its a specific unit event you dont need a unit-type condition anyways... that trigger i said i used in a ... well not quite sure what you call it, almost like an arena but you chose then it moved ur camera to the region, would be same for starting location though

 

[georgie]

wow that explains it lol, wait it was a mis-copy,, the real condition is
((Sold unit) is A Hero) Equal to True

 

[Laika.]

Well, perhaps the problem is not in the trigger but rather with another object. Is the hero you're testing with really a hero? Is there a problem with the tavern building? I would check those things first.

Melee Initialization
Events
Unit - Farm 0001 <gen> Sells a unit
Conditions
(Unit-type of (Sold unit)) Equal to Footman
Actions
Camera - Pan camera for (Owner of (Sold unit)) to ((Owner of (Sold unit)) start location) over 0.00 seconds
Unit - Move (Sold unit) instantly to ((Owner of (Sold unit)) start location)


Just tested, worked perfectly fine... even made a video was gonna upload it but its 17mb and i got no compression system

When you made the unit it went to ur start location, and so did your camera!

 

[georgie]

its not worht it.. ill revert to my old method, thx anyways.. can figure any of this out.. dunno wat i fukked up
