Transfer a build order

ShadowDestroyer	Here is the issue: I have an immobile unit with the ability to build structures. However, when it gives a build command, I want a builder to spawn at that location and begin building the building. How would I go about doing this?

?? You've basically said how to do it in your post.

So, create a builder at that location and order him to build the building (the order id will be the same as the one issued to the immobile unit), then order the immobile unit to stop.

ShadowDestroyer	Yes, but not exactly. How do I detect when a build order is given, but hasn't actually started constructing? How do I detect which building this is?

I don't know how much you know about rawcodes and JASS, but well, here goes:

Trigger:

Untitled Trigger 001

Events

Unit - Peasant 0000 <gen> Is issued an order targeting a point

Conditions

Actions

Custom script: if GetIssuedOrderId()=='hhou' then

Set stopunit = (Ordered unit)

Countdown Timer - Start Stoptimer as a One-shot timer that will expire in 0.00 seconds

Wait 0.00 seconds

Unit - Create 1 Peasant for Player 1 (Red) at (Target point of issued order) facing Default building facing degrees

Custom script: call IssuePointOrderByIdLoc(GetLastCreatedUnit(),'hhou',GetOrderPointLoc())

Custom script: endif

Trigger:

Stop

Events

Time - Stoptimer expires

Conditions

Actions

Unit - Order stopunit to Stop

'hhou' is the rawcode for the unit being built (in this case, I tested with farm). Press Ctrl+D in the Object Editor to view a rawcode.

This code is leaking a location, so you might want to clean that up.

ShadowDestroyer	Thanks! I think that is what I needed. I will let you know if it works! +rep
