Ships and Bridges

[Nathan0093]

Is it possible to allow both ships to travel under bridges and land units to walk on them? I tried using trigger to move the ships through a bridge but that doesnt seem smooth. Lets say I ordered a ship to move from point A to point B, and there's a bridge between two points. After the ship is instantly moved over to the other side it doesnt automatically continue to point B.

One more thing. I couldnt get multiple ships to travel through a bridge continously because that would cause some ships to land the "enter" region on the otherside. Those ships would then be instantly moved back to the side they came from. Help?

Maybe you can use portals.

But to make it look smooth I gues you'd need some kind of dummy leaving the bridge. But I dunno since the dummy would just appear on the bridgeinstead of under it :/

maybe you could turn the pathing off if the shipt comes into a region(which is place on the bridge)

Would that cause an error if land units are on the bridge when the ships were going through?

 

[Drunken_God]

dunno^^
maybe the top of the ships will look over the bridge

EDIT: LOL i tested it. my ships were swimming over the bridge but overall it worked

you could let the ship go over the bridge instead! by magic

if youre interrested i can make something out.

I think I'll go back to making the ships go through from under bridges instead. Now I have another problem that needs correcting.

        Unit - Order (Triggering unit) to Right-Click Current_Target_Point_Ship[Global_Array]
        Custom script:   call RemoveLocation(udg_BridgeLocation)

With these two triggers Im making it so that when ship A is ordered to move through a bridge, itll move toward the bridge and be instantly moved to the other side. Then itll be ordered again to move toward its intended destination. The problem is that the target point overlaps if another ship is ordered while ship A is moving. Ship A will then attempt to move to the new location instead. Can anyone help me fix this and make it MUI as well? +rep if it works.

that is wrong it's not a multi unit entering. remove "If (all conditions are true)
and make it a variable instead that will degrease lagg.
