(Edit : Sorry to update dead post : /) Hi there ! First, thanks a lot for making this function, so usefull ! Then, i have some questions : )

1- If I apply the function when the unit enter a region, and no when user press a key, it doesn't work : / Why ?

2- Xenrathe, how do you "give units a behavior with modification: Plane Delta: Ground -1 & Air 1" please ?

3- I have an error when unit lands : "CActorUnit[myunit]CActorMsg[AnimSetPaused {} 0]; This message needs a valid name for an active animation".

Thanks

Could you give an option that allows units to jump over unpathable blocks.

Basically make it check if the target location is pathable and if not make it jump to the furthest pathable point along the line between the unit and the target.

You don't need to change a unit's mover on the go, if you give units a behavior with modification: Plane Delta: Ground -1 & Air 1, then the unit should path like it were an air unit.  At least mine does, and that's the only way in which I altered movement.

Sorta similar to the lift function I wrote.

I agree that -9.8 doesn't look realistic, but it depends on your update speed.  Also to turn the unit into a flyer, just add a behavior at the beginning of jump that sets Ground-plane = -1, Air-plane = 1 (look at the Phoenix Anti-gravity behavior), and take the behavior off once it lands.  I also made it so that melee units can attack air while they are up there... nothing like watching a bunch of zerglings jump into the air to take a banshee down.  There's a lot of ways to do that; for example by enabling/disabling weapons via the above behavior.

Cheers!,

Edit: I think think you might need to useCatalog Field Value Set. I'm just learning about this, but apparantly you can use it to change data field values. Maybe you can access the mover with this trigger. :) Happy Mapping!

That's kinda what I was thinking Renegade. Maybe some how make a trigger that turns him into a flyer when the jump begins. That would be so sweet!! There are ways to change that data with triggers, Im just not sure how. =P

Loving the physics so far! its amazing! Thank you for adding the keeping its course thing i suggested :) I was wondering if instead of making that unit uncommandable to just instead make the unit a lot slower in movement.. you know cuz you do have some sort of mobility in the air i suppose? Also it would make it so units could attack in the air too which would be cool. Or you could just disable movement because we don't exactly have mobility in the air.. Maybe turning only?

I'm just rambling on here sorry :P. Just some friendly suggestions keep up the good work.

This is way cool.

Any chance we could define the distance of the jump too? (at least for when we have the Movement Lock on). It seems right now that the rate of which the unit moves forward is just the same as the unit's movespeed, but it would be cool if the variable could be adjusted too. :)

Thats really awesome! Is it possible to make it so you can jump up and down/over terrain? Or does it already do that?

Thank you, very well done !

seems like the units travel faster when jumping upward, and slower when falling.

9.8. Are all the other related parameters matching units? 9.8 was used so that it seems as most realistic right? but it looks way slower than realistic.

i think you posted the wrong map file with this...
