2 Rogue Spells - Easy

[Nordmar]

Hey, I need 2 spells that work with multiple players.
1. The rogue can jump behind the target enemy (blink is fine..like..insta teleport), and stuns it for x seconds and deals x damage.

2. Rogue throws a knife at an enemy, causing a wound that bleeds him out..dealing x damage over x seconds. (Does a spell like this already exist? I couldnt find any)

thanks

2. is Warden's shadow strike.

ah ye.. i knew there is a spell like that just I couldn't remember which one. The problem is that I don't wanna have fix values. I want the damage to depend on the damage of the hero casting the ability.

I didn't add a pathing checker for the Blink Strike or a effect indicator for the DoT in Dagger Throw. I suggest you add those using any relevant system in the resource section. I also didn't know what you meant by "... depend on the damage of the hero casting the ability," so I just made it deal damage per second for now.

I made both of these quite in a rush, but as far as I know, they're leakless and MUI. Let me know if you run into any problems.

thanks man the Blink Strike is perfect and Dagger Throw is good too but it kinda sucks how to configure the damage. But gj overall

How does it suck to configure damage? It's literally a point and click.

 

[Nordmar]

because I don't wanna configure the damage before. It won't work if I want the unit to deal X % damage depending on the players custom_integer value.

I'm sorry I'm confused... I still don't see what's hard about that? Instead of doing Damage[] = flat integer, you can change flat integer to whatever you want including % of the caster's strength, max health, etc.

 

[Nordmar]

It's because every player deals different damage.

 

[KILLCIDE]

It's because every player deals different damage.

I don't understand you. You want each player to have unique damage, or do you want each unit to have a damage based on the level? I can do it for you if you can explain it clearly.

 

[Nordmar]

Every player has a variable called damage that changes all the time. I hope this explains it

 

[KILLCIDE]

Oh that's easy then. Can you show me the trigger that initializes the damage so I can show you how to implement it?

 

[Nordmar]

There variable has a starting value of 50 for everyone and I usually did this for other spells:

Unit casts ability
if owner if triggering unit is playerintegerA
then deal playerDamage[integerA] to target unit

 

[KILLCIDE]

Does Integer A refer to the the player number? If so, just index player number to a variable and replace the damage portion with playerDamage[playerNumber].

Does the damage increased based on a game mechanic?

 

[Nordmar]

yes to both of your questions. I think i can solve it..i just set the damage value not at map initialization but when the unit cast the ability. I would like the unit to have a buff while all the damaged happens and also i wanna spawn special effects of blood every 1 second its loosing damage. How should I approach this?

Lol thats what I told you to do.

I told you about this as well, sir.

I didn't add a pathing checker for the Blink Strike or a effect indicator for the DoT in Dagger Throw. I suggest you add those using any relevant system in the resource section.
