SC2Mapster

Could someone please make the A* pathing algorithm (or a better one if you know one that will work) with a condition I can use to check if a path from point A to point B is there == true?

Note: A* uses eight directions, but for what I need it only needs it use four direction (up, down, left, and right)

<<quote>> You can find what you search for in the advanced ai functions, it returns the distance for some specific unit to a specific point (returns an integer, -1 if there is no way). It is a gui function btw..

edit: the name is "AI Pathing Cost Unit" <</quote>>

Resolved on thehelper.net

Strange, I was expecting a response from sc2mapster before getting one from thehelper.net, way to disappoint...

Delete please

Delete please

why delete? this is information for anyone having the same problem.

It seems the action no longer exists or it's name has been changed? I can't seem to find it...

oops, thriple. calling all mods.

wtf? Is the editing system screwed up or something? I swear it's duplicating what I edit...

You just have to put it into perspective.

bool gf_PathFinding (point lp_from, point lp_to) {
    // Variable Declarations
    int lv_pathing;
    bool lv_return;

    // Variable Initialization
    lv_pathing = 0;
    lv_return = false;

    // Implementation
    UnitCreate(1, "ShapeApple", 0, 0, lp_from, 270.0);
    lv_pathing = AIPathingCostUnit(UnitLastCreated(), lp_to, c_includeAllBuildings);
    if ((lv_pathing == -1)) {
        lv_return = false;
    }
    else {
        lv_return = true;
    }
    UnitRemove(UnitLastCreated());
    return lv_return;
}

(returns false if the path is blocked)
