Shadow/Day Meld

[Wolf Knight]

I am making a chameleon type unit. I gave the chameleon unit the shadow meld ability, and I want the chameleon to shadow meld durring the day. Also, with the effects of when a unit with shadow meld stops moving it goes into shadow meld. How can I create this?

You could fully trigger it.

Basically, check with a repeating system whether or not the unit is idle, via comparing orders. If the unit is using an idle order, the GUI functions that get the current order as a string will return "" as the string of the current order. If this be the case, decrement a value (which will serve as a timer for the invisibility onset). When that value decrements enough, have a dummy unit cast invisibility on the chameleon. If the chameleon becomes returns any non-"" order, set the value that gets decremented to it's initial value and remove the invisibility buff.

Have you tried checking the shadowmeld ability in the object editor? I have never messed with that ability, so I wouldn't know, but it might have an option to work in daytime.
