can anybode pointed out what's wrong with the 2nd trigger? the unit always moves in a straight line, to left/right/up/down i want the unit to move to its target

Trigger:
  • Shotlock Starts
    • Events
      • Unit - A unit Starts the effect of an ability
    • Conditions
      • (Ability being cast) Equal to Shotlock
    • Actions
      • Set ShotlockIndex[1] = (ShotlockIndex[ShotlockIndex[1]] + 1)
      • Set ShotlockIndex[2] = (ShotlockIndex[ShotlockIndex[2]] + 1)
      • Set ShotlockTarget[ShotlockIndex[2]] = (Target unit of ability being cast)
      • Set ShotlockTargetPosition[ShotlockIndex[2]] = (Position of ShotlockTarget[ShotlockIndex[2]])
      • Set ShotlockCaster[ShotlockIndex[2]] = (Casting unit)
      • Set ShotlockCasterPosition[ShotlockIndex[2]] = (Position of ShotlockCaster[ShotlockIndex[2]])
      • Set ShotlockAngle[ShotlockIndex[2]] = (Angle from ShotlockTargetPosition[2] to ShotlockPosition[2])
      • Set ShotlockDuration[ShotlockIndex[2]] = ((Real((Level of Shotlock for ShotlockCaster[ShotlockIndex[2]]))) + 2.00)
      • -------- Create Projectile --------
      • Unit - Create 1 Compressor for (Owner of ShotlockCaster[ShotlockIndex[2]]) at ShotlockCasterPosition[ShotlockIndex[2]] facing ShotlockAngle[ShotlockIndex[2]] degrees
      • Unit - Turn collision for ShotlockCompUnit[ShotlockIndex[2]] Off
      • Set ShotlockCompUnit[ShotlockIndex[2]] = (Last created unit)
      • Set ShotlockPosition[ShotlockIndex[2]] = (Position of ShotlockCompUnit[ShotlockIndex[2]])
      • Unit - Set the custom value of ShotlockCompUnit[ShotlockIndex[2]] to ShotlockIndex[2]
      • Unit - Set the custom value of ShotlockTarget[ShotlockIndex[2]] to ShotlockIndex[2]
      • Trigger - Turn on Shotlock Moves <gen>


Trigger:
  • Shotlock Moves
    • Events
      • Time - Every 0.02 seconds of game time
    • Conditions
    • Actions
      • Game - Display to (All players) the text: Shotlock Moves Run
      • For each (Integer ShotlockIndex[4]) from 1 to ShotlockIndex[2], do (Actions)
        • Loop - Actions
          • Game - Display to (All players) the text: (Picked + (String((Custom value of (Picked unit)))))
          • Set ShotlockTargetPosition[ShotlockIndex[4]] = (Position of ShotlockTarget[ShotlockIndex[4]])
          • Set ShotlockPosition[ShotlockIndex[4]] = (Position of ShotlockCompUnit[ShotlockIndex[4]])
          • Set ShotlockAngle[ShotlockIndex[4]] = (Angle from ShotlockTargetPosition[4] to ShotlockPosition[4])
          • Set ShotlockTempPoint1[ShotlockIndex[4]] = (ShotlockPosition[ShotlockIndex[4]] offset by 25.00 towards ShotlockAngle[ShotlockIndex[4]] degrees)
          • Set ShotlockDistance[ShotlockIndex[4]] = (Distance between ShotlockPosition[ShotlockIndex[4]] and ShotlockTargetPosition[ShotlockIndex[4]])
          • Unit - Move ShotlockCompUnit[ShotlockIndex[4]] instantly to ShotlockTempPoint1[ShotlockIndex[4]]
          • Custom script: call RemoveLocation (udg_ShotlockTempPoint1[udg_ShotlockIndex[4]])


note :
the Game - Display blablabla was for debugging purpose
some variables are used in other trigger, those 'other' is completely irrelevant since those only works if the 'Shotlock Moves' worked properly

just a heads up your triggers are leaking, you need to set a variable temp_Location or something of that sort to the positions and destroy them after the trigger finishes

    Looks like Google fixed whatever mistake that made the recipes on the site go crazy and we are no longer trending towards a recipe site lol - I don't care though because it motivated me to spend alot of time on the site improving it and at least now the content people are looking at is not stupid and embarrassing like it was when I first got back into this like 5 years ago.
  • The Helper The Helper:
    Plus - I have a pretty bad ass recipe collection now! That section of the site is 10 thousand times better than it was before
  • The Helper The Helper:
    We now have a web designer at my job. A legit talented professional! I am going to get him to redesign the site theme. It is time.

    I got one more day of community service and then I'm free from this nonsense! I polished a cop car today for a funeral or something I guess
  • Varine Varine:
    They also were digging threw old shit at the sheriff's office and I tried to get them to give me the old electronic stuff, but they said no. They can't give it to people because they might use it to impersonate a cop or break into their network or some shit? idk but it was a shame to see them take a whole bunch of radios and shit to get shredded and landfilled

    How come you're so into recipes lately? Never saw this much interest in this topic in the old days of TH.net
  • Monovertex Monovertex:
    Hmm, how do I change my signature?
  • tom_mai78101 tom_mai78101:
    Signatures can be edit in your account profile. As for the old stuffs, I'm thinking it's because Blizzard is now under Microsoft, and because of Microsoft Xbox going the way it is, it's dreadful.

    I am not big on the recipes I am just promoting them - I use the site as a practice place promoting stuff

    @tom_mai78101 I must be blind. If I go on my profile I don't see any area to edit the signature; If I go to account details (settings) I don't see any signature area either.
  • The Helper The Helper:
    You can get there if you click the bell icon (alerts) and choose preferences from the bottom, signature will be in the menu on the left there https://www.thehelper.net/account/preferences
