Request a spell for an archer

Nordmar · Nov 24, 2015

It would be great if someone could make this probably simple trigger for me.
It's a no target spell. If you click it, the hero creates 5 clones of himself like the ability "Mirror Image". The clones should randomly spawn in an range area of 500. and so should the real hero (so its not obvious to tell which one is the real) and automatically attack the nearest target (they dont deal damage). They have the same health/armor as the hero and if 1 clone gets attacked..every clone (including the real hero) takes reduced damage. After 5 seconds they should disappear and the hero gets snared to the ground (rooted) for 3 seconds but can still attack.

(it would be even cooler if the clones disappear..that they somehow get sucked in from the real hero..)
If someone could do this..that would be awesome. thank you

Making atm will upload later. Made a simple version at first using orc mirror image, ensnare and spirit link. Have restarted from scratch using hashtables for better animation of the sucking up part.

Here is an attached map. Feel free to ask if you don't understand anything

Nordmar · Nov 25, 2015

Hey, thank you. But when I used the spell..my hero immediately died?

kingkwong · Nov 25, 2015

Sorry, I was playing around with things that can go wrong to test the spell out and I uploaded the wrong version. This one should work.

BTW, I was testing mirror image on units with an expiration timer. Apparently they just die without creating the illusions. That's why the hero died straight away.

I don't know why but I'm asking now.

if 1 clone gets attacked..every clone (including the real hero) takes reduced damage

What does this mean. If a clone takes damage, all the clones and the hero get damage reduction? Like increased armor? Or the some of the damage dealt is spread across the other clones and the hero?

It means the second. That everyone loses life but reduced. Like 50% for example.
@kingwonk: i will test your version as soon as I am home. Thank you already

kingkwong · Nov 25, 2015

I don't really understand your spell. I can't tell if its a positive thing or a negative thing. You gain no increased damage output from using it and you also become rooted after use.

With 50% damage spread out, imagine if you got hit by an AOE spell. The You would take 100%+(4x50%) = 300% damage. I only put 20% in the map but all the spell variables can be changed in the constant trigger page.

I made the root only happen if they get sucked back into you rather than just dying since I feel like this spell is more of a hindrance than helpful. Unless I didn't fully understand your request. I'm new and this is my first spell request.

Nordmar · Nov 25, 2015

Ok no problem. I try to explain it again more clearly.
When casting the ability,..x Mirror Images get created in an area of y around the hero. The hero should get replaced aswell within this area. The clones should attack any unit near them. They all share the damage they take which means if 1 clone gets attacked..all the other clones and the hero receive damage. After x seconds..the clones vanish and the hero gets rooted/snared for x seconds

It is very important that I can change the damage and other variables any time and that it's MUI.

DEE-BOO · Nov 25, 2015

This is my version, I thought I'd give clones a try and using a DDS for the first time. MUI & no apparent bugs. It requires Bribe's DDS, you should also remove all the messages I put in the spell if you decide to use it.

Wow, that's exactly how I wanted it to be. Thank you very much :thumbs_up:

A moderator would probably tell you that 5 triggers are too much for a spell but I don't mind

U should upload this spell to the database - dunno if ppl care tho.

It's a good spell for PVP imo

@kingkwong I just checked your version and it's also exactly what I asked for. Thank you

(I think you forgot the sharing damage tho?) Thanks to both of you. Can't decide which one I should take >_>

My damage share does work. Its just that the footmen only do 12-13 damage and the damage share is initially set for 20%. You can see your Hero's health go down when you get hit but the regen heals over time.

Dee-Boo's version looks good. After looking at his I remember that I forgot to add something for if the hero casting unit dies.

EDIT:

Unit - Move Clone_TempUnit instantly to (Clone_TempPoint[1] offset by Clone_Speed towards (Angle from Clone_TempPoint[1] to Clone_TempPoint[0]) degrees)

This leaks

Unit - Kill Clone_TempUnit

Leaks.

Game - Display to (All players) the text: (String(Clone_Duration_Timer[Clone_Loop]))
Game - Display to (All players) the text: 8

Unit - Add a 0.50 second Water Elemental expiration timer to (Last created unit)

Water Elemental?

11-1=10 leaks...
You have to remove the created location before you overwrite the variable.
"Clone_TempPoint[x]" is only a pointer to a newly created location.
Every time that you point it to something else before you remove the location pointed by the variable, you leak a location.
The same counts for all other places where you did this.

Ok, I didn't know that.

I've read somewhere that using water-elemental is cleaner, someone said that Maker told them that.

Set Clone_TempPoint[0] = (Position of Clone_Caster[0]) (+1)

Set Clone_TempPoint[0] = (Position of Clone_Caster[1]) (+1)

Set Clone_TempPoint[0] = (Position of Clone_Caster[2]) (+1)

Set Clone_TempPoint[0] = (Position of Clone_Caster[7]) (+1)

Set Clone_TempPoint[0] = (Position of Clone_Caster[8]) (+1)

Set Clone_TempPoint[0] = (Position of Clone_Caster[9]) (+1)

Set Clone_TempPoint[0] = (Position of Clone_Caster[10]) (+1)

Custom script: call RemoveLocation (udg_Clone_TempPoint[0]) (-1)

11-1=10 leaks...

I don't think I did that :\ I just created two temp locations and made them array so I don't have to create separate two variables.

Set Clone_TempPoint[0] = (Position of Clone_Caster[Clone_Loop])
Set Clone_TempPoint[1] = (Position of Clone_TempUnit)
Custom script: call RemoveLocation (udg_Clone_TempPoint[0])
Custom script: call RemoveLocation (udg_Clone_TempPoint[1])

So this leaks? Sorry for not understanding, I'm still learning. Thanks for helping.

The buff id only gives some text to the expiration bar, you could leave it 0 when using JASS, but as far as this goes, a generic timer would be "cleaner", but it won't matter at all.

Place the "Set TempLocation[0] = ..." in a loop, place the "call RemoveLocation(udg_TempLocation[0])" also in the same loop.
You currently leak 2 locations multiplied by "Clone_Index - 1".
You only remove the locations created by the last iteration because you didn't place it inside the loop.

I thought it was in the loop. Is this outside of the loop?

Sorry, you create them in "Unit Group - Pick every unit in CloneGroup[Clone_Loop] and do (Actions)" this loop, but dont remove them in that loop.
Except if you are 100% certain that that group will always have 1 unit (in which a group is useless), then you havent got that leak
