NEEDS FIX


126248-albums6177-picture66522.png


  • Target point leaks in Armageddon trigger
  • Make the terrain deformation optional since it can cause an FPS drop
  • Dummies should not use the default upgrades and their
    death type should be can't raise, does not decay. They don't need to
    give vision either. Disable their attacks
126248-albums6177-picture66523.png


  • The duration data field of the ability affects the animation the caster plays
    It looks better when not set to 0.01, but to a higher value
  • I don't favour using dummy units instead of timer to be used for delays
  • You only need one dummy unit type, not three

Did you paste the incorrect trigger for the third, daRk_sParroW?

oops, my bad..

You leak the offset point in the first trigger.

oh yeah.. I missed it.

Dat-C3 said:
Shouldn't you fix your spellpack first?
Please learn how to use only one dummy unit, if you want people useing your stuff... it makes it much MUCH better. All you need a blank dummy unit where you can find on from vexorian I think and then just learn to use special effects.
Click to expand...

I'm working on it...

v.1.1 Update

replace Key(Triggering Unit) with an integer variable then do this : set Key = GetHandleId(udg_SomeUnit). SomeUnit is your triggering unit.That is just an example,replace all the parameters i have given.
This same goes to Key(last created unit).

Cache Owner of Caster

Terrain deform times , size, and depth should be configurable.

The "300" in the unit group should be configurable.

Because you are using so many dummies,i suggest using dummy.mdx. This will make the dummy data's very configurable.

Spell's variable prefix is too simple. Make it Armg or just AR. A is not enough to prevent variable collision.

You can merge Armageddon 2 and Armageddon Effect as one trigger by using If conditions.

The generic expiration timer value should be at least configurable.

Armageddon INIT:
- it's best to make the A_Damage[1], etc...into non-arrayed variables coz it's harder to configure that way and it's also slower, imo.

Armageddon:
- Use "Starts the effect of an ability" instead of begins casting
- You leak A_TargetPoint and offset point
- Use triggering player instead of owner of triggering unit
- key caster and alike (AKA StringHash is slow, use normal integers, like "Hashtable - Save Handle OfA_Caster as 1 of (Key (Last created unit)) in A_Hashtable"
- Imo, kill the meteors when 'it lands on the ground', not when the timer expires

Armageddon 2:
- When choosing color, integer is better then convert it to real

Armageddon Effect:
- Terrain deformation always leak, remove it

I would recommend my settings to be at this way to make it more configurable, for example what if a user would like to make the level 1 as 223 and level 2 as 346 or something like that would definitely hard for them to configure it.

The color is randomized so why change?.

Click to expand...
simple:
var1 = 223
var2 = 346
var3 = 1

although it's relatively the same, arrays should be used in a dynamic way like indexing not constants...

The color is randomized so why change?.
Click to expand...
why? coz reals are 0.1, 0.23, 0.35 etc.....colors usually is 5, 15, 1 etc...
although conversion is slow but it's better...

@Almia
integers don't leak :)
