I am trying to give locust to a unit through trigger

Trigger:
  • Custom script: call UnitAddAbility( GetLoadedUnit(), 'Aloc' )


is that the right code? it seems so???
but all it does is make the unit invulnerable i can still select and move it around

this is the trigger:
Trigger:
  • Bunker Load Inverse
    • Events
      • Unit - A unit Is loaded into a transport
    • Conditions
      • And - All (Conditions) are true
        • Conditions
          • (Unit-type of (Transporting unit)) Equal to Bunker (dark iorn)
          • ((Loading unit) is A ranged attacker) Equal to True
          • ((Loading unit) is in BunkersUnitGroup.) Equal to False
    • Actions
      • Set VariableSet TempPoint = (Position of (Transporting unit))
      • Custom script: call UnitAddAbility( GetLoadedUnit(), 'Aloc' )
      • Unit - Order (Transporting unit) to Unload (Loading unit)
      • Unit - Set Unit: (Loading unit)'s Real Field: Scaling Value ('usca') to Value: 0.10
      • Animation - Change (Loading unit)'s size to (1.00%, 1.00%, 1.00%) of its original size
      • Custom script: call RemoveLocation (udg_TempPoint)


its not the complete trigger because i can't get locust right...

i will answer this one guys 'Aloc' is supposed to do 3 things
make unit invincible
make units unselectable
make it capable of walking through buildings

now their is glich that appears where all it does is make the unit invulnerable... kinda odd

you should probably try to unload the unit before giving it locust ('Aloc'). Play around with it a little while. Locust is a little weird and depending on the order in which you do things with it you can get different outcomes.

    Recently tried out ChatGPT about WE triggering. Wow it's capable of giving a somewhat legitimate response.
  • The Helper The Helper:
    I am sure it has read all the info on the forums here
  • The Helper The Helper:
    i think triggering is just scripting and chatgpt is real good at code
  • vypur85 vypur85:
    Yeah I suppose so. It's interesting how it can explain in so much detail.
  • vypur85 vypur85:
    But yet it won't work.
  • The Helper The Helper:
    it does a bad ass job doing excel vba code it has leveled me up at my job when I deal with excel that is for sure
  • vypur85 vypur85:
    Nice! I love Excel coding as well. Has always been using Google to help me. Maybe I'll use ChatGPT next time when I need it.
  • The Helper The Helper:
    yeah whatever it puts out even if it is not perfect I can fix it and the latest version of chatgpt can create websites from pictures it will not be long until it can do that with almost all the tools

    A lot more low quality content, a lot more half-baked stuff.
  • jonas jonas:
    If you're good enough to spot the mistakes of the answers you don't need it in the first place. If you aren't good enough, you're gonna rely on some half-correct stuff

    I used to be active on quora, it's now flooded with extremely similar, superficial answers that often miss the point of the question
