Wander

[maerlyn]

Is there a way to make the Wander ability work only for Neutral Hostile units? A way to disable it for player controlled units?

You can trigger it so that when the Villager might, for instance, change ownership, remove the Wander ability from him.

Then I suppose I could make a trigger that takes the wander ability off spawning units. Thanks

Welcome

But, if you're just spawning the units, why not just make two different units? You can use the editor suffix to denote which ones you want to deal with, such as the ones without Wander and those with.

Well... if you mean two units for each creep, that would for me be an extra 50 units. Right now I'm just modifying the existing ones, which is an extra 0

Then you should either do what Rinpun said and add Wander whenever you create a creep (I'd suggest that over removing Wander for non-creeps) or trigger the Wander ability entirely.

Remove wander for all creeps in object editor.
Then add ability Wander with triggers only to those units owned by Neutral players.
After all, Neutral shouldn't spawn units automagically, should they?

Thanks. I added Wander to the creeps I am using in my map as Neutral Hostile (some are placed from the start, then creeps are set to spawn later on) and I made a trigger that takes Wander away from player owned creeps. That's the simplest way, I guess.
