Disable/enable or add attack to unit

[mastah_]

ok is there anyway to make a unit either:
A) have an attack but be unable to attack anything until you enter certain area
or
B) when enters certain area it gives the unit an attack

i want the attack to just be a unit (non-hero) attack

any help is great thxs

You can remove attack ability with custom scripts or you could use orc burrow ability.

non-hero? You mean attack type? or targets allowed?

ya as in Normal/Piercing/Chaos etc.

and i'm no good at custom script

Then set the units attack to 1 or the other.

If you want to allow 2 types of attacks, then use an ability that enables attack indexs, and have the indexs initially off.

If you want more, then you'll have to get chaos ability or replacement triggers.

Orc Burrow Ability is your thing then. Just don't use any cargo abilities and it'll be a dummy spell to disable attacks.

Hey Cidzero, i liked that stuff about orc burrow. Can you explain something more about?
An ability that can activate/deactivate atack???

 

[Cidzero]

Orc Burrow ability requires peans to infest it to allow it to attack. Hard concept?


Thing is, if you don't give the unit a cargo ability, it doesn't work properly, it only disables attacks. Unless...you want peons eating your brain :shades:

 

[joaoac]

ok ok...

But who will use that ability?
And that less of cargo ability?

I continue dont understanding.

You talk about give the burrow ability to an unit. But if there arent burrows owned by player on map? it only loses atack. is that?

i will test
Edit: didnt worked.
Orc Burrows have cargo hold(burrow) / battle station / stand down
witch one i have to use?

Cargo Hold(Orc Burrow) = no attack icon therefore no attack but u still can see how much damage u could do
