Finding nearest enemy

[overture2112]

Does anyone know how to determine whether an actor is attackable? Finding the nearest non-player with >0 hitpoints works when in certain locations but I'd like to make my selection process more robust.

Unit->getType() ?

That doesn't really help. Enemy creatures and guards of your faction share the same type (0).

Theres a LUA function GetDispositionTo that returns if its Hostile, Neutral or Friendly. You'd need to run it on the player unit and pass in the target unit. Theres an Enum with the Hostile/Neutral/Friendly integer status as well.

GameLib.GetPlayerUnit():GetDispositionTo(GameLib.GetTargetUnit())

Not sure how easy it is to access the actual functions in memory, but this should give you a starting point.

I hadn't looked at the lua stuff much yet, but clearly I should...

Thanks!

Internal function accepts TargetPtr..
-> int __thiscall GetDispositionTo(int this, int a2)

		enum class UnitDisposition
		{
			Hostile = 0,
			Neutral = 1,
			Friendly = 2,
			Unknown = 3
		};

		enum class UnitDisposition
		{
			Hostile = 0,
			Neutral = 1,
			Friendly = 2,
			Unknown = 3
		};

Is there an offset in the unit class that holds the UnitDisposition or is it neccessary to call the internal function?

[Midi12]

Maybe player + 0xB4 = target disposition, not confirmed.

(I know this doesn't answer your question directly, but it's the only offset I know that's refer to the subject, so currently calling the internal function is the way to get disposition)

I had a bit of trouble reversing the internal function, but it does certainly look at 0xB4 for /something/, so I like your theory. Haven't had time to inspect in game yet though.

I did some testing with Unit + 0xB4 (Note Unit not only LocalPlayer).

It returns Hostile when the unit is in the process of attacking you.
Neutral Otherwise. Havent found one tagged friendly yet.

Now. Im not sure if this is the units target disposition. or it to the local player. As currently Im always the target when Its hostile (Im attacking it..) im not sure how to test it (I cant run alt clients and setup a nice situation with an alt my pc can barely manage the single wildstar instance)

Note I was only checking objects where

 Unit->Type == UnitType.NonPlayer

Try Innerspace/isboxer? You can easily set cpu priorities and fps limits, which helps with running multiple clients.

Wont help. my processor is just terrible. Its overclocked to buggery and still only just makes wildstar playable on v-low.

Neutral Otherwise. Havent found one tagged friendly yet.

Unit + 0xB4 is unit target disposition not unit disposition

Thanks for clearing that up.
