Targeting Stunners

[Sorrontis]

have you tried:

SetText <-stunner

[Nicant]

have you tried:

SetText <-stunner

Now in the debug box it says STUNNER, but there is no stunner clearly visible.

Code:

Code Select Expand

# --CHEEKY MONKEY-- 12/13/2016 3:53:59 PM

->Stunner2 "STUNNER"


CurrentCoords <-Stunner2 CreateUnit ->stunner
<-stunner print
90 Delay TraceAll


Edit: Also tried turning it into an enemy, but doing that makes the debug box empty again.

Code:

Code Select Expand

# --CHEEKY MONKEY-- 12/13/2016 3:53:59 PM

->Stunner2 "STUNNER"


CurrentCoords <-Stunner2 CreateUnit ->stunner
<-stunner SetUnitIsEnemy
<-stunner print
90 Delay TraceAll

Edit2: also tried replacing CurrentCoords with CurrentPixelCoords, still nothing new.

Try this:

Code Select Expand


"Stunner" CurrentCoords CreateUnit ->Unit


In PRPL, some strings need lowercase.

[Nicant]

Try this:

Code Select Expand


"Stunner" CurrentCoords CreateUnit ->Unit


In PRPL, some strings need lowercase.

yes it finally works! Turns out i have put the notations in the wrong order. :P Thanks!

So, it's a unit then? not a particle?

[GoodMorning]

Yes, Sorrontis.

If you think about it, it makes sense, as it doesn't need to directly interact with the particle sim.

Note that "Omni" has already been proven to be needed.

Additionally:
Particles seem to come in standard and virtual varieties, with VPs on everything from Emergent to Omnis to ships. Probably amp factories and energy pods as well. If it can be hit by particles (and is not land or a standard particle), it has a VP, I think.
