Ok so the spell, is 1 sliding , the caster hero will slide to the targeted point , and if in his collision are enemies he will pick up them , and will slide to the targeted point.
Here is my trigger :
Trigger:
  • Skewer
    • Events
      • Unit - A unit Begins casting an ability
    • Conditions
      • (Ability being cast) Equal to Channel
    • Actions
      • Set speed = 950.00
      • Set point = (Target point of ability being cast)
      • Set caster = (Triggering unit)
      • Set difference = (Distance between (Position of caster) and point)
      • Set real = (Angle from (Position of caster) to point)
      • Set unitgroups_unitcount = 0

Trigger:
  • Skewer Effect
    • Events
      • Time - Every 0.03 seconds of game time
    • Conditions
      • difference Greater than or equal to 0.00
    • Actions
      • Set caster_point = (Position of caster)
      • Set temp_point = (caster_point offset by (speed x 0.03) towards real degrees)
      • Unit - Turn collision for caster Off
      • Unit - Move caster instantly to temp_point
      • Set temp_unitgroup = (Units within 95.00 of temp_point)
      • Unit Group - Pick every unit in temp_unitgroup and do (Actions)
        • Loop - Actions
          • If (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions)
            • If - Conditions
              • (Number of units in temp_unitgroup) Greater than 0
              • ((Picked unit) is alive) Equal to True
              • ((Picked unit) belongs to an enemy of (Owner of caster)) Equal to True
              • unitgroups_unitcount Less than or equal to 2
            • Then - Actions
              • Set picked = (Random unit from temp_unitgroup)
              • Unit - Turn collision for picked Off
              • Unit - Move picked instantly to temp_point
              • Unit - Turn collision for picked On
              • Set unitgroups_unitcount = (unitgroups_unitcount + 1)
            • Else - Actions
      • Unit - Turn collision for caster On
      • Set difference = (difference - (speed x 0.03))
      • Custom script: call RemoveLocation(udg_caster_point)
      • Custom script: call RemoveLocation(udg_temp_point)
      • Custom script: call DestroyGroup(udg_temp_unitgroup)


My problem is: When the caster picks up the enemy unit , they will go back, i mean , they will slide in the wrong way. Can someone explain me why? And correct the problem :)?

PLS : DO NOT REWORK IT.(cuz i will be more confused)

Some help :D ?

PS:the variable : unitgroups_unitcount , i'm using this for counting the picked units , and the max number of picked units is 2 unit , this is why i put less then or equal to 2.

PS2: Fixed , and works good :D , thx for help.

Try not turning on the collition of the units every time the second trigger runs, turn it on only when the slide ends (i mind when you stop moving the units.)
Also dont set the temp_point to the position of the caster, instead set a fixed Starting_Position and set the temp point to that position offset by your an X amount towards your angle, in this way you make sure they go in a straight line

    The bots will show up as users online in the forum software but they do not show up in my stats tracking. I am sure there are bots in the stats but the way alot of the bots treat the site do not show up on the stats
  • Varine Varine:
    I want to build a filtration system for my 3d printer, and that shit is so much more complicated than I thought it would be
  • Varine Varine:
    Apparently ABS emits styrene particulates which can be like .2 micrometers, which idk if the VOC detectors I have can even catch that
  • Varine Varine:
    Anyway I need to get some of those sensors and two air pressure sensors installed before an after the filters, which I need to figure out how to calculate the necessary pressure for and I have yet to find anything that tells me how to actually do that, just the cfm ratings
  • Varine Varine:
    And then I have to set up an arduino board to read those sensors, which I also don't know very much about but I have a whole bunch of crash course things for that
  • Varine Varine:
    These sensors are also a lot more than I thought they would be. Like 5 to 10 each, idk why but I assumed they would be like 2 dollars
  • Varine Varine:
    Another issue I'm learning is that a lot of the air quality sensors don't work at very high ambient temperatures. I'm planning on heating this enclosure to like 60C or so, and that's the upper limit of their functionality
  • Varine Varine:
    Although I don't know if I need to actually actively heat it or just let the plate and hotend bring the ambient temp to whatever it will, but even then I need to figure out an exfiltration for hot air. I think I kind of know what to do but it's still fucking confusing
  • The Helper The Helper:
    Maybe you could find some of that information from AC tech - like how they detect freon and such
  • Varine Varine:
    That's mostly what I've been looking at
  • Varine Varine:
    I don't think I'm dealing with quite the same pressures though, at the very least its a significantly smaller system. For the time being I'm just going to put together a quick scrubby box though and hope it works good enough to not make my house toxic
  • Varine Varine:
    I mean I don't use this enough to pose any significant danger I don't think, but I would still rather not be throwing styrene all over the air

    I bitch about Xenforo sometimes but it really is full featured you just have to really know what you are doing to get the most out of it.
  • The Helper The Helper:
    It is just not easy to fix styles and customize but it definitely can be done
  • The Helper The Helper:
    I do know this - xenforo dropped the ball by not keeping the vbulletin reputation comments as a feature. The loss of the Reputation comments data when we switched to Xenforo really was the death knell for the site when it came to all the users that left. I know I missed it so much and I got way less interested in the site when that feature was gone and I run the site.
