Movement Problems.

[ShadowSnipe4]

Okay, what the script is supposed to do is make it so that whenever a player preses the up arrow, his unit goes foreward, but if they pres up and left or up and right the unit goes up-left or up-right. As it is now he just keeps going up or turns left or right. Any help?

function Trig_HeroMovement_Press takes nothing returns nothing
set udg_MoveActive[GetConvertedPlayerId(GetTriggerPlayer())] = true
endfunction

function Trig_HeroMovement_Release takes nothing returns nothing
set udg_MoveActive[GetConvertedPlayerId(GetTriggerPlayer())] = false
endfunction

function Trig_HeroMovement_Actions takes nothing returns nothing
    local integer currentPlayer = 0
    local unit currentUnit = null
    local location currentPosition = null
    local location positionToMoveTo = null
    local real offset = 0.0
    loop
        set currentUnit = udg_MoveUnit[currentPlayer + 1]
        if currentUnit != null and udg_MoveActive[currentPlayer + 1] then
        set currentPosition = GetUnitLoc(currentUnit)
        if udg_MoveActiveLeft[currentPlayer] then
        set offset = 20.0
        elseif udg_MoveActiveRight[currentPlayer] then
        set offset = -20.00
        endif
            set positionToMoveTo = PolarProjectionBJ(currentPosition, 128.0, GetUnitFacing(currentUnit) + offset)
            call RemoveLocation(currentPosition)
            set currentPosition = null
            set currentPosition = null
            call IssuePointOrderLoc(currentUnit, "move", positionToMoveTo)
            call RemoveLocation(positionToMoveTo)
            set positionToMoveTo = null
        endif
        set currentPlayer = currentPlayer + 1
        exitwhen currentPlayer > 9
    endloop
    set currentUnit = null
endfunction

reset your "offset" during the loop?

 

[ShadowSnipe4]

Didnt fix it >_<.

 

[Duwenbasden]

GetUnitFacing(currentUnit) + offset

Try to get currentUnit's angle to a variable first, add the offset, and use it the variable in the function call instead. it fixes mine and might fix yours too.

 

[Heptameron]

GetUnitFacing(currentUnit) + offset

Try to get currentUnit's angle to a variable first, add the offset, and use it the variable in the function call instead. it fixes mine and might fix yours too.

If that fixes it my faith in all rules of logic will be shattered.

Go into your custom maps file and find the blizzard custom maps that came with your game... one that everyone has is called "blizzard grand prix" it is much like mario cart in all that it does... the arrow keys move you, and you can move up and right or up and left and back and right and all the other combo's... check it out in your editor and it should help you fix your problems...

That's a heck of a lot of work when it already works 98% of the time.
