Swapping a unit and selecting it if its original was selected.

04-03-2006, 04:41 AM

So I was trying to make an ability for a boss in my RPG, and I was hoping I could use War Club, but that didn't work out so I had to make two identical units with different attacks. The problem is that when the monster is swapped if the previous monster was selected by a player, I have no idea how to detect if the monster was selected then to reselect it by the player/s whom have it detected.

Here's what my trigger looks like thusfar:

Trigger:

Events

Unit - A unit Is attacked

Conditions

(Unit-type of (Attacking unit)) Equal to Behemoth Turtle

((Unit-type of (Attacked unit)) Equal to Sheep) or (((Unit-type of Attacked unit)) Equal to Rabbit) or (((Unit-type of Attacked unit)) Equal to Pig)

Actions

Unit - Explode (Attacked unit)

Unit - Pause (Attacking unit)

Wait 1.00 seconds

Unit - Hide (Attacking unit)

Unit - (Create 1 Behemoth Turtle (Spitting) for (Owner of (Attacking unit)) facing (Facing of (Attacking unit)) degrees

Unit - Set life of (Last created unit) to (Life of (Attacking unit))

Unit - Remove (Attacking unit) from the game

karukef	http://www.wc3campaigns.net/showthread.php?t=81742 Read about the ability called Chaos. It is a way of changing a unit into another unit without having to replace it and will not cause it to be deselected.

Ares_WarBlade	Wow, that sure did the trick, I had skipped the Chaos part in that tutorial, now I know I shouldn't have! Thanks.
