When a person casts a custom spell I created in a map I'm making, I obviously use a trigger to check the order and perform whatever actions necessary. But I want it to stop the unit if it is out of range of the thing it is casting on, so I said: if ( DistanceBetweenPoints(GetUnitLoc(GetOrderedUnit()), GetUnitLoc(GetOrderTargetUnit())) > 850.00 ) then call DisplayTextToForce( GetForceOfPlayer(GetOwningPlayer GetOrderedUnit())), "|cffffcc00You are too far away.|r" ) call IssueImmediateOrderBJ( GetOrderedUnit(), "stop" ) return false endif is there like a little wait that i have to add in before i issue another order, because this should work fine, but the unit still goes and tries to cast the spell. |

Guest | Well in TFT there is an even you can use called Unit - A unit Begins casting an ability that should only set off if the unit has the mana and is in range. |

well i'm actually not using TFT to make this map. I don't even own it in truth. I want to make the map work for both regular War3 and TFT due to the lack of fun maps out there. What happens if I instantly move a unit to the location it's already standing, then? Would that stop from moving? |

Guest | The thing is if you search it in this forum the ability cast functions just don't work in ROC. You have to have a such a complicated trigger just for one spell its really not worth it your better off just getting TFT and making it work there. |
