Units

How a server puts objects on the field and takes them away: champions, minions, neutral monsters, turrets, pets, markers and props. What a unit then does is in Movement, Combat and Spells, and what it is worth in Replication.

Every object is named by a net id, and Objects and identifiers says what removes each kind of object.

Creating

Each kind of object has its own message:

In 1.0.0.138–3.1.0.0

Several of these arrive on their own or inside the EnterSight that brings the unit into view (see Vision): a client takes either.

CharacterPreload has a client load a character’s art ahead of need.

Changing and removing

TeamChanged moves a unit to another side, and ChampionRemoved takes a champion out of the world. A unit’s death is in Combat.

Bots

A server can tell a client what a bot is thinking (BotDebug), weighing (BotTargets) or doing (BotState). None of them changes what a player sees.

Messages

Each message of this system in this book, with each layout it has across the book’s patches and every note its definition carries. A layout is the message’s body, after the header its channel’s family puts in front (see Messages).

CreateChampion

What a server sends to put a champion on the field. The header carries zero or names the object this is about; a client accepts either.

Definition.

The champion takes the id in champion, not the header’s; a client first removes any object holding that id. For the client’s own seat, name also becomes its own player’s name. A client drops the message while its map’s navigation data is unloaded, as early in a reconnection.

From 0 to 5, its side’s base position plus the offset the map sets for the side’s head count (players and bots) and this index plus one, facing as the map sets for them. A client works out the head count itself, counting SpawnStart’s bots in it. From 6 up, the base position itself, facing along +X. Movement or sight data replaces it.

A client takes the prop’s id from prop, not from the header. A scenery prop is turned by pitch, then yaw, then roll, each about the fixed world axes; none is negated or wrapped. An active prop only turns about the up axis, to face the ground direction its x and z give, and faces +z where both are zero.

FieldTypeWhat it is
propu32The name the prop answers to, so later messages can name it.
nodeu8Which network node the object belongs to. It is a field of its own, not the leading byte of the name beside it.
atXf32Where the prop stands, along one ground axis, in world units.
atYf32Where the prop stands, in height, in world units.
atZf32Where the prop stands, along the other ground axis, in world units.
rotationXf32For scenery, the pitch in degrees: a turn about the x axis, positive turning +y toward +z. For an active prop, x of the direction it faces.
rotationYf32For scenery, the yaw in degrees: a turn about the up axis, positive turning +z toward +x, so yaw 0 faces +z and 90 faces +x. For an active prop, y of its facing, which does not turn it.
rotationZf32For scenery, the roll in degrees: a turn about the z axis, positive turning +x toward +y. For an active prop, z of the direction it faces.
offsetXf32What is added to where it stands, along one ground axis, in world units.
offsetYf32What is added to where it stands, in height, in world units.
offsetZf32What is added to where it stands, along the other ground axis, in world units.
side2-byte bitsThe side the prop belongs to. A server sends 300, the neutral side.
side.sidebit 0 to 8The prop’s side.
side.unusedbit 9 to 15Unused; a server writes zero.
skillLevelu8Unused; a server writes zero.
ranku8How far it is advanced.
kindu8What sort of prop it is; a client makes nothing for any other value. A client first deletes any object holding the prop’s id, whatever the kind. Values: 0 active, 1 scenery.
nametext, 64 bytesWhat this prop is called, so a client can tell one from another. Written out in full and padded with zero bytes to the width above.
assettext, 64 bytesThe name the client loads its art and sound under, written and padded as above.

MapPropChanged

What a server sends to change something about a prop already on the map. The kind of change is named inside it, and the fields around the kind keep one layout whatever it is. The header names no object: it carries zero.

propu32The object changed.
valueu32A value the change uses: for animate, the animation’s flags; for linkEffect, the particle effect value; for look, the look’s number.
changeu8What changes. A client does nothing for any other value, nor where prop names no prop it holds. Values: 0 animate, 1 linkEffect, 2 look.
optionu8For animate, nonzero to remove the prop after the animation; for linkEffect, zero.
