i have some raised terrain scattered around a map and i have no idea how to find the height it, so i can change the camera height to that...so i just want to be able to pick any point on the map and find the height of it. Help would be much appreciated and rep would be rewarded! :god_help_us: |

Guest | I'm not used to this new trigger, but maybe create a unit at a point, get the Z of the unit with the new trigger, and remove the unit |

You don't need a unit, the new GetLocationZ() function returns the height value of a point. |

Guest | I don't know this new trigger much, I only used it once as "get Z of (position of unit)" to make a camera follow uphills, and I was too lazy to open WE :/ |

make 2 variables: tempPoint and tempReal set tempPoint = position of unit (or something u want, doesnt matter) custom script: set udg_tempReal = GetLocationZ(udg_tempPoint) custom script: RemoveLocation(udg_tempPoint) do actions here, tempReal = the terrain height. |

well, u don't need to know much to figure out all there is to it, i mean from the call statement you already know it takes a single point as a parameter, and u know what it does... thats about all there is to know seeing as how theres no operator overloading in jass |
