What do some of the fields in Targets allowed mean?
I've got a list of the ones that I think understand but could someone clarify if I've got those right?

Air - can only target all air units(units with movement type ground)
Alive - can only target alive units(units that are non corpse/skeleton)
Allied - ?does this include your units or just your allies units?
Ancient - can only target Ancients(Night Elf Trees, certain units)
Bridge - can only target Bridges(bridges(the things you can walk over rivers with))
Dead - can only target Dead units(corpses, skeletons)
Debris - can only target Debris? is that stuff like crates?
Decoration - ?whats decoration?(dunno)
Enemy - can only target enemy units(oposition)
Friend - ?does this include your units or just your allies units or both?
Ground - can only target ground units(units with a non hover/fly movement type)
Hero - can only target hero units(heros)
Invunerable - can only target invunerable units(fountains,vendors)
Item - can only target items(items lying on ground)
Mechanical - can only target mechanical units(catapults, etc)
Neutral - units which belong to neutral players(Neutral Hostile, Neutral Passive)
Non-Ancients - can only target units which are not Ancients(not Night Elf Ancients/Trees, certain other units(Cenarius?, Roshan(from DotA)))
Non-Hero - can only target hero type units(heros)
Non-Suicidal - ?uhhh.... not goblins?
None - No targets allowed
Not Self - All units but the unit with the ability.
Organic - non mechanical(catapults, etc) units
Player Units - ?Units owned by player of casting units/units owned by a player(non computer)?
Self - can target self(casting unit) only
Structure - can target buildings(Town Hall, Barracks, etc)
Suicidal - ?uhhh.... goblins?
Terrain - landscape(grass, water, dirt)
Tree - Trees(tall, made of wood, got leaves)
Vunerable - units that can take damage
Wall - ?what specified walls are there?maybe gates?
Ward - units which are wards(normally summoned)(Statis Traps, etc)

Well thats all the fields in allowed targets. Anyone want to comfirm the ones I don't know?
 
The only things that are ancients are the NE buildings that can uproot and such. Regular units cannot be ancients.
 
I thought dead meant only corpses, as zombies are 'un'dead :p

Player Units means just that player's units.

For invulnearable - you can set that as an armor value too, but when you do, you don't become invulnearable, merely untargetable and unaffectable by any other targeting type. I assume that invulnearable applies to that armor value as well (the values are the same, check it out :p). I believe decoration applies to doodads like torches, rocks, and plants (not trees). Wall applies to the stone wall doodad, I believe.

Hover is still classified as ground, I think (sorceress is hover, right? She seems to glide over the terrain ...)...
 
I wasn't sure about hover so maybe it does count as ground.

Roshan in DotA is classified as an ancient so untis can be.

Player Units was just what I wanted to know thx.

Invuvnerable should be farily self obvious but impossible to ward.
 
Movement type and targetted as are completely different.

You can have a flying unit be targeted as ground. In game normally hove is targeted as ground though.
 
Really? So what set whether you can target a unit as Air or Ground?

  • Varine Varine:
    So now he's getting scrutinized and will not be top of the list. I know I don't have the smartest people but I do expect them to have some common fucking sense
  • Varine Varine:
    I did do a rare thing for me and hire a girl last month without warning. Everyone was made at me because I started her at like 21, but she worked with me before and I was like don't care. She made 19 at her old job and I wanted her to come work with me, she is the best

  • Varine Varine:
    I'm going to get her a raise at the end of the summer. She wants to go to school again, but I want her to still work with me so.... she kind of can just tell me what the price is. I can go to 25 if she keeps up. I need to get her onto line more, that's what she wants, but I need her where she is and it's not fair that she doesn't get the little bit of raise that comes with it. She can do it no problem, I've worked with her there.
  • Varine Varine:
    It's just hard to move and train people unnecessarily right now. And also the line fucking sucks, it's not any more fun. This is turn and burn so I have the bankroll, and everyone suffers for it
  • Varine Varine:
    Eventually we'll get it balanced, we'
  • Varine Varine:
    we're starting online orders and stuff, but I also turn that off all the time because I barely keep up trying to be the best at Sysco shit
  • Varine Varine:
    I think it's gonna be a good fall and winter though. We're going to have a good staff, they will get along, they will be able to manage the workload and the complications, they know how to really cook this year, like every person on line knows their steak temps. Some of them use thermometers a lot and they don't always use them right, but they do know how to do it. Failure, especially in this field, is the only way to get better. They'll get it
  • Varine Varine:
    They won't get feel down while they do the thermometer, but we didn't have an instant read probe when I was learning. Like they did but god knows how off it is, you HAD to do it by feel. Even if the chef was fine with me bringing my own, it takes too long. Poke and know

    cool take it easy

    I recently had an experience with a waiter that really brought down @Varine's point about them being in sales. The first waiter just asked "anything else? deserts?" and when the table shook their head said "ok" and left. Then the other waiter came in and started going off describing the deserts and you could see the heads turning, and they finally got a bunch of deserts
  • jonas jonas:
    :p
  • jonas jonas:
    makes sense if you consider that the tip is basically a commission on sales

    That's an arbitrary number. It could be whatever you want, really. Though one wonders what the use case is for uploading giant files to a forum these days.
  • The Helper The Helper:
    I should have asked elsewhere but i wanted vsnes to see he is trying to upload a pic no big deal it can stay where it is.
  • The Helper The Helper:
    That was a fun trip. Next time I am going to get some kind of water thing like a kayak or something to boat out n the lake, maybe get a place with a pier on it.
