[jass] unit's vertex color for only one player

[dracolich]

It is possible to change color of unit for exactly one player, when others will see old (default) color? If it is, do it exist in GUI?

if GetLocalPlayer() == Player(0) then // Which Player you wanna change vertect for
//Call Vertex things
endif

 

[dracolich]

great thanks. but I heard, that GetLocalPlayer results desync. It's not matter for me, but still - does it?

 

[Crazy_Dead]

I think it will desync.

 

[the Immortal]

It doesn't desync.
Tested.

Anything that changes gameplay or creates handles will cause a desync. Otherwise, light things like SetTerrainFog, DisplayTimedTextToPlayer, many others, are safe. For example you can play sound for player but you should not create sound for player.

But you can still use special effects in local code if done correctly.

//! tooltiperror
  function onInit takes nothing returns nothing
      local string model="abilities//something//somethingelse//thunderclap.mdx"
      if GetLocalPlayer()==Player(0) then
        set model=" "
     endif
      call AddSpecialEffect(model,x,y)
  endfunction

I think (not tested) creating sounds locally is fine.
Just because like texttags it's pretty much a local thing.
Else, KillSoundWhenDone would desynchronise players which have wc3 sound option to off, or wc3 minimized, and probably some other fancy stuff.
