Title: May someone do a quick getPos test?
Post by: Mandoble on 09 Jul 2007, 11:33:12

Place a unit above the roof or in different floors of different buildings and for each one get:

Code: [Select]

unitname distance (getPos unitname)

Eh...

So the distance gets bigger the higher you go in the building..
The change in getpos height is like 0.00000xxx meters, but the distance grows by meters between floors... ???

Do I smell getPosInBuilding function coming?  :D

So, did distance between unit and its position increase?

EDIT: So it does. Quite interesting. That means the real height of a unit is its current height plus the distance between the unit and its position. May be this is the data LCD and Mr. Peanut were looking for  ;)
