Some Spell Requests! pls help me!

[VoidLordXtreme]

Ok hi at first
I got some spell ability ideas, I tried to make them … but I failed!!
So plz help me guys!


Spell nr1: Force of Nature
[Passive]
The hero gains 1/2/3/4 intelligence point for every tree in 600 range.
If the Tree is contaminated (undead tree) he looses 1/2/3/4 int instead of gaining it!

Effects: some natural/green Done!! many thx to Thanathos!!


Spell Nr2: Liquid Form
[Passive]
Every time the hero walks on water (the light blue one you can walk on) he gets invisible and gains 2/4/6/8 % Movement and Attackspeed!
(When he attacks a unit while in water he turns visible as long he attacks.. fade time about 2 sec.)

Effects: it should look like the hero turns into water… Ofc only for enemys well done by D4RK_G4ND4LF!


Spell Nr3: Curse of Flames
[active]
Tagets: Trees
Burns up a tree creating a Fire which damages nearby enemy Units with 5/10/15/20 dmg/ sec!
If there are other trees near the Burned Tree they also start to burn.
Lasts for 10 Sec. Trees die.

Effect: fire, smoke maybe … ... done! thx to AlienAtSystem


Spell Nr4: Chaos
[active]
Targets: no target! (like berserk or thunderclap)
Switches all unit positions in 600/700/800 Range (alive and no buildings) with other unit positions.
(Except of yourself) That means it swaps the units randomly.
Dmg= Distance warped (or swapped) divided by 4/3/2.
Effects: something red/orange/yellow or some dust... also done by D4RK_G4ND4LF !! thx^^



Pls pls help me with these

Here is the Curse of Flames Spell. Its not tree-targeted, but ground-targeted because its difficult to make a spell tree-targeted. It summons a fire on the target position wich burns enemies in range. Every second it is checked wether a tree is near a fire. If, the tree dies and a fire is created at the position. The Spell is MUI and MPI and leakless, but may lag by great amounts of fires.

Give Credit to D4RK_G4ND4LF too, for his tree detection system.

i will give credit to you and D4RK_G4ND4LF ofc.

Ok here´s your Force of Nature. It follows the Spell Section rules and is coded in vJass. It got a manual in the map and comments in the code so that you know what you´re doing when you adjust it.

Details

Force of Nature The caster links his mind to the trees of the forest in a range of 600 gaining acces to their ancient knowledge. For each tree the casters intellegence is increased, but if a tree is corrupted the caster looses intellegence. Level: 1 Level: 2 Level: 3 +2 Intelligence per Tree -2 Intelligence per corrupted Tree +3 Intelligence per Tree -3 Intelligence per corrupted Tree +4 Intelligence per Tree -4 Intelligence per corrupted Tree NOTE: Strength and Agility bonuses are also avaiable.

• Anachron for the Icons.
• shamanyouranus for the mode file.
• PitzerMike for the IsDestructableTree library.

awesome what my stuff is able to do thanks for spell and idea

now everything might be fine (since I don't use JNGP the prefix stuff with private and everything with globals won't work but I think this is more the less best what can be done with it)

Nice to see you coding in jass D4RK_G4ND4LF. First please use hidden tags for the code, it takes a lot of space. When you´re coding in Jass you need to put prefixes for your functions to prevent name clashes. In your AoE and Damage function you should add an integer parameter for the level so you can leave out the expression in the I2R() function. (Besides you don´t need use I2R() in jass, typecasting from integer to real is implicit in Jass.) You should use constant functions for adjustables like the spell id or the special effect, so the user can configure them from the top of the script and does not need to jump in the script to change them. The expression in the IsValidTarget function can be optimized to:

Suggestion

function IsValidTarget takes nothing returns boolean
    return (not IsUnitType(GetFilterUnit(), UNIT_TYPE_DEAD) or GetUnitTypeId(GetFilterUnit()) == 0) and not ( IsUnitType(GetFilterUnit(), UNIT_TYPE_FLYING) or IsUnitType(GetFilterUnit(), UNIT_TYPE_STRUCTURE) or GetFilterUnit() == GetTriggerUnit() or IsUnitType(GetFilterUnit(), UNIT_TYPE_MAGIC_IMMUNE))
endfunction

(i just summarized the not´s in that expression.)

The Actions function looks ok so far. You may use a variable for GetTriggerUnit(), that would reduce some calls and makes it more readable. You also should declare the integer which holds the level of the ability, so you can pass it to the Damae and AoE func. The FirstOfGroup-Loops are not recommended to use, it would be better just to use ForGrop instead. But considering this being your first jass spell it´s ok to do it that way. Also im too tired now to think for an optimization for that loop issue. GroupPickRandomUnit() and CountUnitsInGroup() are some avoidable BJ´s but removing them would also be part of the loop optimization. Fix the things besides the loop issue and the spell should be ok.

thanks for the comment but I am to tired to read anything right now probably later this day (it's 1 o'clock at mine)
(quite sure this contains JNGPrelated stuff anyway which I am not using but however I'll see)

I also made the Liquid Form Spell

 

[AlienAtSystem]

• Anachron for the Icons.
• shamanyouranus for the mode file.
• PitzerMike for the IsDestructableTree library.

Since its senseless to use two tree detection systems in the same map,you can reconfigure my system easily to work with the IsDestructableTree library. In the loop there is somewhere a run Trigger funktion:

• Trigger - Run Treecheck<gen>(checking conditions)

replace this line with Custom script:

udg_tempbool = IsDestructableTree(udg_tempdest) and (not Is DestructableDead(udg_tempdest))

(I think that function should be right. Never worked with Jass before, much less vJass libraries)
Then my spell uses Pitzer-Mikes tree detection too. (Sorry Gandalf, but his is a bit faster imo)

I've improved the Forest Fire spell
now the trees are burning more randomly and it does not lag anymore every second
there also is no need for dummys now and the casting animation is cooler now

I'd like to upload this spellcollection to the spell section so the other users are able to see this stuff too (of cause mentioning everyone in this thread as a person to give credits and rep to)
is there anyone who does not want his spell to be published or want to publish it himself?
and I'd also like you, VoidLordXtreme, to think of more cool spell ideas
they are very original and nice

wow thats a great compliment thx
yeah you could post it in the spell section as a spellpack.. thats a good idea btw if everyone allows it!

btw add the Abilities\\Spells\\Human\\Polymorph\\PolyMorphDoneGround.mdl Effect to the Chaos spell it fits better
also you forgot at the liquid spell to set the level of the dummy ability to same level of the hero ability and also add a effect to the slow buff (naga death fits good).

i will also try to think of new spells as i need them for my map!

You have my permission. My Spell wasnt really mine since i only used predefined Blizzard Spells and your tree detection system. And since you improved it now, i think there is no need to mention me (i dont want rep for a thing that everyone could do in 5 minutes if he got the right ressources).
