When Servers Collide

Just to jump in here
The hero picker system
uses random numbers
but if need be i'll write my own rand nuber genrator
taht will constanlty run to help with the randomness

Desk, what I'm taking about is a sort of random number generator but the numbers are put in a random order so that they don't repeat. Do you know how to do that sort of thing?

Lets say theres 10 heros, numberd 1 to 10, in a array varaible.

Give 1 to player one. Say, he got 7. Then remove 7 from the varible.

Or make taverens that playersa can see or pick from, and make the trigger rabdomly buy a hero out of taveran that make the taveran not sell it.

Then make them re-sellable later...

ya that needs to be done is to check the last interger used isnt quild to the current one

Or just leave it how it is...

No, I agree, there shouldn't be duplicate users. But the stuff about choosing users... I don't like.

Well, make it so a player cant get the same hero twice, too, so I dont get shados 3 times, uchi 5 times, and brad 2 times....

Well that's what we're trying. So that you'll go through all of the possible users before seeing duplicates again.

I think a while loop would do the trick.

Anyone have any ideas on what Unit I could be? I have no clue.

Or spell ideas.

Well, duplicits and the same hero twice are differnt.

Duplicits: Player 1 has shados and player 2 has shados, too.
Same hero twice: Player one has shados. Then he gets shados again.

If both those are fixed it should be fine w/o picking.

That's what we're trying to do. If you have a suggestion on how to do that it would be much appreciated.

What guy are you like? On personality.
Or what is your favorite hero/model?

Please include me. I'm working on a map called Triangle of power. Idea Factory. Title: Genre ? FFA/Team

If you want more people...

Name: Gilles.
Unit: Troll warlord I think. The Green troll with armor.
Icon: Any troll icon.
Skill: Appear Offline. (Windwalk) If it's possible you could make it so that when Gilles attacks a hero, only that hero can see him, just like Appear Offline works for MSN. I don't see how you could trigger that though.

Hey, stop whining. Why should Pyritie or DeskaladA even consider adding you, a user who has less than 50 rep, less than 50 posts and who joined this month, to a map that contains the well know people of the Hive or wc3c ?
Please stop whining and saying that you're important. You're aren't. Resign with it and let the mapper team in peace. And don't dare to say that I'm wrong with it or start crying by saying that you are important without even showing a freaking prove that you are. Period.

BTW, Pyritie, Werewulf allowed me to use one of her great icons.
I would like to use this icon:



I hope it's okay for you if somebody is running through the map as a dragon too.

brad.dude03 already is using the Forest Troll Warlord model/icon, and Samuraid already has a windwalk-based spell.

This is using your draconian, correct?

I think an ogre model would work better for me anyway, so let Gilles take the troll.

Im using a oger model atm...

Shame. But there are tons of different ogres, so i'm sure that I could find a free one to use.

Pyritie, for this random hero thing, where two heroes can't be picked twice, you could use either unitpools or groups:
http://hilton.vs.oiccam.com/showthread.php?t=97706

Hereto's using the basic ogre; do you want the blue one or the warlord?

EDIT: Ah, thanks for that HINDY.

Hmmm... last time I played WILLTHEALMIGHTY's Black hole was ridiculously powerful.

And you didn't use the model I told you to use!!!11!11!!1

I couldn't find which model you wanted me to use as you just linked to your unit twice! And I just used the model the black hole spell came with!

Okay...

Model: Wildkin (No tinting please!)

Spell: Chance to increase attack speed by 200% (if 200 looks lame go with 100) on hit for 10 seconds or four hits!?!

That's doable, yes.

Dont forget there's Ogres with just 1 head, too.

Some issues I've found.
- Kaitech's poison thingy spell is overpowered. I kills target hero instead of poisoning it.
- The AI of Dan van Ohllus does not use his spell.
- Volcano mini-game: Looks more like the volcano avoids to damage victims. I tried to go suicide, but the volcano seems to move it's projectiles away from the orbs.

Some suggestions:
- brad.dude03 can always use a Troll Headhunter or a Troll Witchdoctor if Gilles want a Forest Troll Warlord.
- I think you should replace the custom orbs with in-game Wisps instead to reduce the map filesize a bit, or use one of my gem models at wc3c.

Yes, but besides the amount of heads, they're very much a like.

Already fixed.

The AI of lots of users don't use their spell.

It's just moving to random rects every 1 second.

Those gems don't really work, and the orbs don't take up much filesize. Besides, the main things that are taking up space are the UI and several custom heroes.

Ok I have some questions. (These come from the paired mapping contest version so they might be nulled.)

1. What are those bases in the South West, and North East Corners for?
2. Why do a few turrets leave circles of power behind when killed?
3. I find it strange that the units that are playable are heros yet they can't level up nor gain an ability like an hero.
4. Where do I put the server upgrades? (Or were they supposed to happen as soon as you bought them.)

1) Those are where the "banboxes" will be. Banboxes contain the banned users from each site, destroy the turrets guarding it and they will begin to attack their captor's server. They cannot be controlled, however.
2) They do? Well we were planning to make it so when you make your user walk on a circle of power they'd take control of that turret (as if you garrisoned your user in it) but that idea was scrapped. Too confusing.
3) They're mainly heroes because you can do more things with a hero than a unit. It's mainly a trigger thing. And also because it shows that the named users are stronger than the generics.
4) They don't work yet. You're supposed to buy the upgrades (and the item gets removed), but we haven't gotten around to that part yet.

Hey there,
if you still got some space left in your map, you may put a MoCo char on your character-inclusion-list. I'd be very happy

He should use the Admiral Proudmore model (if possible with a pirate or ghost-pirate skin).

Ability: Get drunk (the Hero get's drunk, heavily influencing his physical abilities. When drunk, the hero has a 30% chance to miss on his attacks but also a 30% chance, to avoid enemy attacks. Every successful attack of the hero has a 30% chance to make an enemy unit drunk as well.)

Thanks.

No.

Owned again... But always with a good reason.

Lol I delighbertly made it insane.

Well I am thinking of changing it into a more simple aura but this requires ALL spells to deal magic damage to work.

What it does is add to all allies in the area the ability night elf archers have to reduce magic damage (or the one item ability) but set to 200% reduction (all magic damage heals). You then make one for the enemies but set to -100% reduction so that they take twice as much damage from spells. You then make an aura system that adds them to all allied units in the area. On top of that you can then add a system that simply recasts spells back at enemies that start an effect of an ability within X of my guy.

That should be a lot easier than making 100 exceptions odd and all it really needs is an aura system which can easilly be done via the enter / leave X trigger event. JASS needed ofcourse.

DSG, thanks for that. We were stuck on how to do your ability.

By the way I think I can actually do that in GUI... shouldn't be too hard.

EDIT: DesKaladA, are you even working on this map any more? It seems like you're always busy working on something else nowadays.

Well yes i am sorry,
But i do have some stuff to add if i can find it again
