                            Else - Actions

The thing is, if you tested this, the hero moves correctly, but he moves riggedly (is there such a word?). I don't really know how to explain this type of movement.

The second thing: is there a way to cast a spell while moving using this system?

Thanks alot !

you can replace the system with slides instead of issueing a movement order (although that would take out pathing AI, but itll be alot smoother (although more cpu intensive))

btw use [WC3.][/WC3.] (remove the .) when your posting copied text from wc3

millz- · Dec 6, 2009

>The second thing: is there a way to cast a spell while moving using this system?
You probably will need to use dummy to "cast" the spell if you want move-n-cast system, I think.

werasd · Dec 6, 2009

Hey man. Can you attach the wc3 file for this?
But, i think the problem is that the game orders the unit to move to very near places (it's like if you get a unit in any map and keep clicking the mouse's right button in near places. The unit will walk "riggedly" as you said).
I'm not sure... so you could attach the map for me to check better.

Ryuu · Dec 6, 2009

> you can replace the system with slides instead of issueing a movement order

Yeah, the slide was originally what I intended. But after seeing that I couldn't cast anything while "sliding", I changed it to issue movement order, and it still didn't work.

> You probably will need to use dummy to "cast" the spell if you want move-n-cast system, I think.

You mean, while my unit is moving, the player selects a dummy unit at a far corner of the map? And through that dummy unit, abilities are casted?

> Hey man. Can you attach the wc3 file for this?

Sure.

When you've downloaded it, please let me know, I would like to remove it to prevent any further downloads.
Here it is: Map

Psiblade94122 · Dec 6, 2009

actually... you can use

JASS:

call SetUnitX(Your unit, a Real)

JASS:

call SetUnitY(Your unit, a Real)

and you can assign orders to the unit (this will not inturrupt spells)
One more thing, you might want to set the movement speed of the unit to 1, because if the unit moves while slideing with set unit X and Y itll move faster then intended (because your moving the unit directly and because the unit itself is moving)

Another method would be to order to unit to stop if issued a move order, but if your spells have range then the unit will still move to use the spell, but oh well you can add those two as custom scripts instead of using move unit instantly and youll be able to cast spells though that

Ryuu · Dec 6, 2009

Alright, but how do I manipulate around those two custom scripts so that I can move my unit according to my own custom speed?

avalya · Dec 6, 2009

I'd like to ask how the SetUnitX/Y works, actually, are the reals offsets or coordinates?

Executor · Dec 6, 2009

see marked

avalya · Dec 6, 2009

Hmm, so how do you know where you are supposed to move a unit? Can you check it's current X/Y position and move it according to an offset of those coordinates?

Executor · Dec 6, 2009

Yes, thats exactly how we do it.

JASS:

constant native GetUnitLoc takes unit whichUnit returns location

function PolarProjectionBJ takes location source, real dist, real angle returns location
    local real x = GetLocationX(source) + dist * Cos(angle * bj_DEGTORAD)
    local real y = GetLocationY(source) + dist * Sin(angle * bj_DEGTORAD)
    return Location(x, y)
endfunction

(thats how the GUI users do it, the JASS users evade locations)

avalya · Dec 6, 2009

So is that doable in GUI, and how would that look with custom scripts?

Executor · Dec 6, 2009

Trigger:

SomeTrigger
- Events
  - Time - Every 0.03 seconds of game time
- Conditions
- Actions
  - Set TempLoc = (Position of SomeUnitVar)
  - Set TempLoc2 = (TempLoc offset by SomeRealVar towards (Facing of SomeUnitVar) degrees)
  - Unit - Move SomeUnitVar instantly to TempLoc2
  - Custom script: call RemoveLocation( udg_TempLoc )
  - Custom script: call RemoveLocation( udg_TempLoc2 )

Becomes this in JASS:

JASS:

function Trig_SomeTrigger_Actions takes nothing returns nothing
    set udg_TempLoc = GetUnitLoc(udg_SomeUnitVar)
    set udg_TempLoc2 = PolarProjectionBJ(udg_TempLoc, udg_SomeRealVar, GetUnitFacing(udg_SomeUnitVar))
    call SetUnitPositionLoc( udg_SomeUnitVar, udg_TempLoc2 )
    call RemoveLocation( udg_TempLoc )
    call RemoveLocation( udg_TempLoc2 )
endfunction

//===========================================================================
function InitTrig_SomeTrigger takes nothing returns nothing
    set gg_trg_SomeTrigger = CreateTrigger(  )
    call TriggerRegisterTimerEventPeriodic( gg_trg_SomeTrigger, 0.03 )
    call TriggerAddAction( gg_trg_SomeTrigger, function Trig_SomeTrigger_Actions )
endfunction

I would do sth. like this (vJass example):

JASS:

scope SomeMovement initializer Init
    globals
        unit someUnit = null
        real someReal = 0.
    endglobals
        
    private function DoSomethingPeriodic takes nothing returns nothing
        local real a = GetUnitFacing(someUnit)* bj_DEGTORAD
        local real x = GetUnitX(someUnit) + someReal * Cos(a)
        local real y = GetUnitY(someUnit) + someReal * Sin(a)
        call SetUnitX(someUnit,x)
        call SetUnitY(someUnit,y)    
    endfunction

    private function Init takes nothing returns nothing
        local timer Timer = CreateTimer()
        call TimerStart(Timer,0.03,true, function DoSomethingPeriodic)
    endfunction
endscope

Psiblade94122 · Dec 6, 2009

uhhh personally i would take two real variables (X(real) and Y(real)) and set the X to the X value of the point that you want the unit to move to, likewise for the Y

That way you dont need to do all the math required because its done for you

In other words
Set a point to where you want the unit to go
Set X = X of point of where you want the unit to go
Set Y = Y of point of where you want the unit to go
call SetUnitX(Your unit, X)
call SetUnitY(Your unit, Y)

LearningCode · Dec 6, 2009

But you need to know where you are now in order to now where you want to go, correct?
Where you are now will be reference so that you can make the unit move at a constant speed.

In Executor's example, someReal will have to be the distance that you want the unit to move.
And I think it'll make your hero move forward ._.

Isn't it easier to detect a key-press and then make the unit move? O_O

Psiblade94122 · Dec 6, 2009

set point1 to position of your unit
set point2 to point1 offsetting by (any distance) twards (any angle)
Set X to X of point2
set Y to Y of point2
call SetUnitX(Your unit, X)
call SetUnitY(Your unit, Y)

Point1 is where your unit is now
The offset distance for point2 is your speed, so with a bit of math you can make this feel like normal movement (minus the pathing AI)

Ryuu · Dec 7, 2009

Executor,

Trigger:

Custom script: local real a = GetUnitFacing(udg_GLOBAL_Hero[GetForLoopIndexA()])* bj_DEGTORAD

gave me an error -> Expected 'endif'

Executor · Dec 7, 2009

You can declare local variables only at the beginning of the function.

JASS:


function something takes nothing returns nothing
local real a = 5. // works
set a = 3. // works
local real b = 2. // doesn&#039;t work because you left the &quot;declare local vars block&quot;.
endfunction

Yes, my example will move the unit all 0.03 seconds udg_realVar units in the direction it looks.

If its possible what Psiblade94122 said, do it, I'm no GUI coder anylonger^^
