Pathing under walkways

Ok I'll try to word this so its understandable.

I have a raised pathway (made out of tables and legless tables) that i want units to be able to walk under. I placed invisible platforms on the raised pathway so its walkable but if a unit tries to move under the pathway/bridge they automatically jump up to the platform. Is there a way to adjust invisible platforms so they only affect things at their height level? Also, if I place pathing blockers along the edges of the pathway so units dont fall off is there a way to only get them to affect things at their height on not on the ground (so the pathing blockers arnt stopping units from passing under)?

It's nearly impossible. You can't do it without using triggers. The only way I could think of doing it is making a custom doodad where the death anim is exactly the same as the stand anim and then kill the bridge as needed to have units walk under it. Of course, units couldn't be on top and below the bridge at the same time without having to do wierd stuff.

Nope. Can't be done, been asked a thousand times.

There are ways around, but simply making it so you want walk underneath them is indeed impossible.

Ive been able to do it using trigger in my capaign but since its an rpg it wasn't designed ofr multiple units to be using the bridge at a time. I created an invisible building that was walkable and then when a unit wanted to go underneath the bridge i had the building removed then replaced when a unit wanted to go over the bridge. But errors do occur when you have a unit trying to go under and aunit trying to go on the bridge at the sme time.

The problem is that warcraft only allows for one level of pathing, meaning that there is only one plane a unit can walk on. Adding invisible platforms will only change the height of the plane at the spot you placed the platform on. For example, I'm going to resort to text images.

So the periods are unwalkable areas and the underscore things is your pathing. As you can see, adding invisible platforms does not add another layer of pathing, so therefore, you can't make underpasses or overpasses without messing up the pathing of your map.

If you want to trigger it that's fine, but I'm clueless about triggers so don't ask me.

I've seen you saying that before Beam :D

As far as i'm into trigger's, it's quite possible, but you can't make it so that it's really a smooth system.

Lol I know. Man I should make a faq. These things are getting redundant. Or just make a sticky thread dedicated to this topic. Hell I think I'll do that now.

Ok, good :D
