Flying unit cannot pass structure

[pongpong]

how can i make a normal flying unit, cannot fly over a certain building?

It is because i am making a very tall buildable tower, but it looks weird when
flying units can fly through the tall building.

try a pathing blocker air large

You cant make a unit type flyer to unable to fly over structures unless you use regions with triggers or pathing blocker for air.
Recommendation: pathing blocker is much easier.

Exactly ultimate11 and kayoss666 Pathing blocker air large would be the best way to go as they are the simplest to use.

exactly how am i going to do that? I am making a buildable structure?

 

[OMGOMGOMG]

Just go Doodads --> Pathing Blockers --> Pathing blocker (Air)
Then create them around the structure.

You guys are misunderstanding.
He means a buildable structure, not preset so it can't have pathing blockers.

Perhaps check the fields regarding movement type or something similar to check the height of the building.

Pathing blockers for air block the air pathing because of their pathing map.
You can set the pathing map for structures also.

If your building is a rather small building you can make it use the pathing map of the air pathing blocker and thus your building will block air pathing.

If it is a large building you can use the arcane observatory pathing map which also blocks air units.

There's this action that you can put into a Begins Construction trigger:

• Destructible - Create a Pathing Blocker (Air) at (Position of (Constructing structure)) facing (Random angle) with scale 1.00 and variation 0

Good idea Kaerf. or you could do it Accnames way, as it would be easier
