[Spell] Point in Region

[sentrywiz]

Hi all.

Is there a way to track if an ability has been cast in specific region?

I like to cast a point target spell like Shockwave and I want to track in which region was the spell cast. Note that the unit casting is not in the region, but casts it from outside the region, so the point is saved in a variable. I guess the question might be: is there a way to track the point variable in specific region.

Any ideas?

regions are rectangles.. with min/max X and min/max Y. if you cast a spell you can save x/y of the caster or the target unit or point and check wether X and Y are between min and max values.

So yes you can

Use an array that contains all regions. Then loop through them and check if the ability cast point is within region[x]

Can you show me via some trigger example?

Yeah but how? Where is the condition for that? I saw no condition "Point is in region". There is unit in region but not point

• For each (Integer A) from 1 to number_of_regions, do (Actions)
  • Loop - Actions
    • If (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions)
      • If - Conditions
        • (allRegions[(Integer A)] contains my_loc) Equal to True
      • Then - Actions
        • Game - Display to (All players) the text: found!
      • Else - Actions

it's a boolean condition, region contains point.
