How To Use Aloc Post 1.14

sry for bothing such a readily available answer but i don't know jass or understand call functions and the parameters, returns ,etc. I was hoping someone could show me what line i could put in on the GUI editors insert line of code thingy to give a unit *last created* aloc. Or if someone could direct me to some explanations of variables and defining *i'm pretty sure that was a variable that was passed through* stuff like how to show last created units, triggering units, etc.

I don't know JASS or Custom Text but I found myself to be a quick learner so I'll try to remember what Lord Vexorian told me.

Assign the last created unit to a variable (else it would be something like getLastCreatedUnit but I'm not sure) and use something like this:

Custom Text: call UnitAddAbility( udg_yourvariable,'Aloc')

Just give it the unit ability named 'Locust': I'm pretty sure that's Aloc, only they gave it a name. It sure seems to work like Aloc for me, at least.

The correct usage would be:


Abilty before unit.


You can replace GetLastCreatedUnit with any unit you have stored in a variable, like this:


There are lots of posts explaining variables; search the forum. Here 's one for example.

Really, what's wrong with ' Unit - Add Locust to (Last created unit) '?

Is there a problem with that that I am not aware of?

Only special editors can do that

hunter, the correct qoute is "While I Might Not Agree With What You Say, I Defend Your Right to Say It. " and it was said by voltaire

Dude, I got that from a friking quote site, who mentioned voltaire, but also mkentioned that it was often wrongfully credited to him

It would be the same as the custom script line, but for some reason I can't find Locust in the add ability trigger action, probably because I am using UMSWE beta or the fact I am with 1.13b and not 1.14 probably
