Earth-Fury	rects. (vanilla WE calls them regions for some inane reason) check if point of ability being cast is within an "unblinkalbe" rect. if it is, order the casting unit to "stop".

Vexorian	http://www.wc3campaigns.net/showthread.php?t=96003 In my arena I had 3 major regions (not rects) it was pretty complicated to decide when blink was a legal move...

botanic	what about simply making all units in an area flying then use pathing blockers so they act like ground and add a bunch of ground blockers so it is not a "valid" target for a ground unit to target. And create a region at the entrance to the area that gives flying? only thing is how can i make flying units look like there a ground unit?

fps-doug	for that you can change their flying height to -64, it works well for me but if they approach cliffs they will begin to levitate.

cohadar	Or if it fits your map, you can make that part of map have black mask for enemy players (like in pudge wars) so the enemies cannot blink but just walk in it.

cohadar	Are you telling me you are going to change all your heroes to fliers + add a bouch of pathing blockers on your map just so you could implement a restriction on a blink spell ???

botanic	no there is just one entrance to that area and when a unit enters that area im going to make it a flyer and when it leaves that area im going to make it lsoe flying... Least thats the plan so long as i can figure out how to make a flyer look like a ground unit...
