Dummy Unit Won't Slide?

[AoW_Hun7312]

Can anyone tell me why this trigger won't make my unit slide?

• Slide
  • Events
    • Time - Every 0.03 seconds of game time
  • Conditions
  • Actions
    • Set tempGroup = (Units in (Playable map area) matching ((Unit-type of (Matching unit)) Equal to Shockwave))
    • Unit Group - Pick every unit in tempGroup and do (Actions)
      • Loop - Actions
        • Game - Display to (All players) the text: lol
        • Set Temp_Point = (Position of (Picked unit))
        • Unit - Move (Picked unit) instantly to (Temp_Point offset by 13.00 towards (Facing of (Picked unit)) degrees)
        • Custom script: call RemoveLocation(udg_Temp_Point)
    • Custom script: call DestroyGroup(udg_tempGroup)

Not even the text will show.

Maybe it is because you are moving it instantly.

Maybe it is because you are moving it instantly.

I do believe that how all slides are, but I'm not too sure.

• Events
  • Unit - A unit Is issued an order targeting a point

My best suggestion. Instead of every 0.03 sec, if what the #2 poster said was true, that it happens instantly, and not "every 0.03" sec.

If I haven't misunderstood you compeltely that is

What this does is move the unit forward in a 'slide' every 0.03 seconds of gametime. However, what it's not doing is moving the unit. It just stays still.

EDIT: It displays the text after I have another set of dummy units cast the shockwave spell.

if even the text is not shown it means the group is empty. check for it.

and you still leak a location.

• Set tempGroup = (Units in (Playable map area) matching ((Unit-type of (Matching unit)) Equal to Shockwave))

isn't better that way?

• Unit Group - Pick every unit in (Units of type Shockwave) and do (Unit Group - Add (Picked unit) to tempGroup)

The slide works fine for other units (I just tested), but not my dummy.

I found out two of my dummy units have the same Raw ID. How do I change it?

> the group is empty

Which could also mean that the units are unpickable. They have Locust, I presume.

Ctrl+C, Ctrl+V
It will do a new unit with a different raw code(or should)

Ermm... For some reason the text displays when this trigger runs.

• Split
  • Events
    • Unit - A unit Dies
  • Conditions
    • (Unit-type of (Triggering unit)) Equal to Split
  • Actions
    • Set Temp_Point = (Position of (Triggering unit))
    • Set real = 0.00
    • For each (Integer A) from 1 to 10, do (Actions)
      • Loop - Actions
        • Unit - Create 1 Dummy Unit for (Owner of (Triggering unit)) at Temp_Point facing Default building facing degrees
        • Unit - Add a 2.00 second Generic expiration timer to (Last created unit)
        • Unit - Add Shockwave to (Last created unit)
        • Set splitPoint = (Temp_Point offset by 100.00 towards real degrees)
        • Unit - Order (Last created unit) to Orc Tauren Chieftain - Shockwave splitPoint
        • Set real = (real + (360.00 / 10.00))
        • Custom script: call RemoveLocation(udg_splitPoint)

Anyone know why?

Errr... Not sure why you quoted me. Anyway, create another new unit? It shouldn't be hard (it could, but...).
