Someone should be able to link you to Table, you should be able to just copy/paste it over the version of Table in the map.
C'mon, man. Replace Table by copy/pasting the new version over it...
tags, please.)
Just summons that are owned by the player but not controllable. It abuses the ward
classification that removes the interface buttons. Then it just needs these functions
to block smart (doble click) orders (the only orders that the player is able to give to
ward-classified units) And also make them have a support AI that follows and protect
its master.
Notice that the AI is just about following the master an attacking enemies, if you
need more you can make it so manually (not difficult, really) Check out the 'Bear Roars'
example trigger
Why would you want this system? I don't know, you are the one that downloaded the map.
And yes, this map used to be called diablo 2 summons. The AI is based on a function
made by Grater but I actually modiffied a lot of it.
Credit is the only prerequisite to use this system on playable maps. If you want to
include the system in a map that is to be uploaded to any sort of spell section you'd need
my permission.
Implement
¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯
- Requires the CSCache module (Part of caster system - <a href="http://wc3campaigns.net/vexorian" target="_blank" class="link link--external" rel="nofollow ugc noopener">http://wc3campaigns.net/vexorian</a> ).
- Then you must Copy the functions in the 'IndieSummon' trigger
- Then Copy yhe 'IndieSummon Code' trigger
- Then have a trigger that calls the IndieSummon_SetMaster function (Check the Call category)
- Make sure every unit you want to use as summon of this system has the ward classification.
Note: Units with even point values will get a tank ai, and units with odd point values
will get a support ai.

function IndieSummon_SetMaster takes unit summon, unit master returns nothing
¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯
Start everything (the smart order blocking + AI) for the unit summon. master
determines the master of the summon.
You can use this function to change the master of an already active
independant summon.

function IndieSummon_StopAI takes unit summon returns nothing
¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯
Stops the AI and the smart order trigger for that unit besides of cleaning the
memory used by them. It is a good idea to use this function before removing it. Although
exploding the unit instead of removing it is as effective.
