Ok well bumped into an odd error...

I have a location being constantly centered (preserve trigger) on a unit. I have a trigger where the unit *lures* all the units around him on top of him. I do this by ordering all the units in his vicinity (I actually have two mobile locations actually a big one and a small one) to ATTACK to the small location.

I am finding that the units keep running RIGHT, continuing past the location all together, would anyone know what this is?



None.

Perhaps the location they are ordered to attack is centered on 'anywhere'. Then they would run right if your hero/whatever was in the left side of the map.

Just post the triggers, it would be much easier to find the error that way.



None.

Yeah sounds like a trigger error. Or are you using the "make these units patrol" ai instead of order to patrol action?
Besides you don't need 2 locations. Order the units inside the big location to patrol to the big location and they will move to the center.

Tried what you said hmmm they still move to the right....

CON
activate spell
ACT
set DC to 1
deactivate spell
preserve

CON
DC is 1
ACT
add DC 1
order all men owned by Force 2 at location BIG LOCATION attack to location BIG LOCATIOn
preserve

CON
DC is 16
ACT
set DC to 0
preserve


They move to the right and then sorta turn around and come back at me once the spelll finishes. If I spam the spell they just go right for miles.

EDIT: sorry guys found the problem. I was using the DC for something else which I can't remember, I just changed to a different unit type and it works fine now.

Thanks.

Ultraviolet -- That's strange, it looks like you targeted the base image file (sometimes people make the mistake of just using the imgur page link which doesn't work for embedding) but it still didn't work it sounds like.

ManCubuS -- I should try a workaround, thanks! Sadly imgur is blocked in my country for some unknown reason.

NudeRaider -- I think SEN has trouble with https or hotlinking is forbidden. It certainly is nothing about the size, it just fails to get any size. You can get it working if you use imgur and include the actual image link for the img tag. Like this: [img=https://i.imgur.com/ddYqXZa.jpeg]

ManCubuS -- Hey fellas! Anyone knows why when I try to upload an image it says "failed to get image size"? I even tried making it so small. Imgur isn't working here and I tried postimg no luck.
