This system will allow you to check whether a unit is in combat. A unit becomes in combat whenever it attacks, casts a spell, is attacked, or targetted by a spell, and will stay tagged as in combat for 4 seconds after attacks and spells stop.
Leak-less
Lag-less
MUI
MPI
Made in: vJASS
Usage:
Usage is pretty simple. If you want to use it in another JASS Code, use the functions SetUnitInCombat and GetUnitCombatState to get and set the combat state of the unit.
If you want to use it in GUI, you can use custom script to set a boolean variable to GetUnitCombatState(YOUR_UNIT). Then, that variable can be used to refer to the unit's combat status (True if it is in combat, False if it is not).
Requirements:
CSData v. 15.2
PUI v. 5.2
1 Trigger:
Trigger "InCombat"
--To put this in the map,
1. Create a new trigger.
2. Go to Edit -> Convert to Custom Text.
3. Rename it "InCombat"
4. Paste in the Code.
How it Works:
It's a very simple system. When a unit attacks, or casts a spell, it makes both the target as well as the triggering unit in combat. This is done by attaching a struct to the unit, and then running a timer which expires in 4 seconds. If the unit attacks again, that timer will start over again. If the timer expires, the attached struct is destroyed.
Lastly, if a user wants to know if a Unit is in combat or not, it simply returns whether any struct is attached to the unit.
System Code:
The example map that is attached allows the user to repick his hero through dialogs. However, you are not allowed to repick your hero, unless he/she is out of combat. Try it out!
