Respawn
Events
Unit - A unit Dies
Conditions
Actions
Wait 5.00 seconds
Set Variable Set point = (Position of (Triggering unit))
Unit - Create 1 . (Unit-type of (Triggering unit)) for (Owner of (Triggering unit)) at point facing Default building facing degrees
Custom script: call RemoveLocation(udg_point)
Init
Events
Map initialization
Conditions
Actions
Hashtable - Create a hashtable
Set Variable Set hashtable = (Last created hashtable)
-------- Here we're just creating the Hashtable. --------
Set Variable Set ConflagrateDPHS = "4.00"
-------- Set this value to what damage you want the spell to do per half second per rank of the spell. --------
-------- So for example, 4 DPHS will mean the spell does 8 damage per second at rank 1, 16 at rank 2, and 24 at rank 3. --------
Cast
Events
Unit - A unit Starts the effect of an ability
Conditions
(Ability being cast) Equal to Conflagration
Actions
Set Variable Set point = (Target point of ability being cast)
-------- These special effects can be edited to whatever you desire. --------
Special Effect - Create a special effect at point using Abilities\Weapons\PhoenixMissile\Phoenix_Missile.mdl
Special Effect - Destroy (Last created special effect)
For each (Integer integer ) from 1 to 6 , do (Actions)
Loop - Actions
Set Variable Set point2 = (point offset by 150.00 towards (60.00 x (Real(integer))) degrees.)
Special Effect - Create a special effect at point2 using Abilities\Weapons\PhoenixMissile\Phoenix_Missile.mdl
Special Effect - Destroy (Last created special effect)
-------- As can these. --------
Custom script: call RemoveLocation(udg_point2)
-------- We define bj_wantDestroyGroup = true so that the group creation does not create leaks. --------
Custom script: set bj_wantDestroyGroup = true
Unit Group - Pick every unit in (Units within 200.00 of point matching ((((Matching unit) is alive) Equal to True) and (((Matching unit) belongs to an enemy of (Owner of (Triggering unit)).) Equal to True)).) and do (Actions)
Loop - Actions
-------- Setting the movement speed to double causes the frenzied running appearence. --------
Unit - Set (Picked unit) movement speed to (2.00 x (Default movement speed of (Picked unit)))
If (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions)
If - Conditions
((Picked unit) is in group.) Equal to True
Then - Actions
Else - Actions
-------- We only add a fire graphic if the unit isn't already on fire. --------
Unit Group - Add (Picked unit) to group
Special Effect - Create a special effect attached to the origin (Unexpected type: 'attachpoint') of (Picked unit) using Doodads\Cinematic\TownBurningFireEmitter\TownBurningFireEmitter.mdl
Hashtable - Save Handle Of (Last created special effect) as 3 of (Key (Picked unit).) in hashtable .
-------- First we save the timer (10 seconds). --------
Hashtable - Save 10.00 as 0 of (Key (Picked unit).) in hashtable .
-------- Then we save the damage source. --------
Hashtable - Save Handle Of (Triggering unit) as 1 of (Key (Picked unit).) in hashtable .
-------- Then we save the damage per half second. --------
Hashtable - Save (ConflagrateDPHS x (Real((Level of Conflagration for (Triggering unit))))) as 2 of (Key (Picked unit).) in hashtable .
-------- You can edit this in the intialisation trigger. --------
Custom script: call RemoveLocation(udg_point)
-------- Bye bye leaks! --------
Loop
Events
Time - Every 0.50 seconds of game time
Conditions
(Number of units in group) Not equal to 0
Actions
-------- To reduce processing stress, this loop will not run when the group is empty. --------
Unit Group - Pick every unit in group and do (Actions)
Loop - Actions
Set Variable Set handle = (Picked unit)
If (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions)
If - Conditions
Or - Any (Conditions) are true
Conditions
((Picked unit) is dead) Equal to True
(Load 0 of (Key (Picked unit).) from hashtable.) Equal to 0.00
Then - Actions
-------- This clears up dead units as well as those that have had their burn timers run out. --------
Unit - Set (Picked unit) movement speed to (Default movement speed of (Picked unit))
Special Effect - Destroy (Load 3 of (Key (Picked unit).) in hashtable.)
Unit Group - Remove (Picked unit) from group .
Hashtable - Clear all child hashtables of child (Key (Picked unit).) in hashtable .
-------- We remove the unit from the group, destroy its fire effect and then clean up its hashtable entries. --------
Else - Actions
Hashtable - Save ((Load 0 of (Key (Picked unit).) from hashtable.) - 0.50) as 0 of (Key (Picked unit).) in hashtable .
Unit - Cause (Load 1 of (Key (Picked unit).) in hashtable.) to damage (Picked unit) , dealing (Load 2 of (Key (Picked unit).) from hashtable.) damage of attack type Spells and damage type Fire
-------- Reduces the timer and deals damage. --------
Set Variable Set point = (Position of (Picked unit))
Set Variable Set point2 = (point offset by 600.00 towards (Random angle) degrees.)
Unit - Order (Picked unit) to Move To . point2
-------- This order causes the unit to run randomly around while it burns. --------
Custom script: call RemoveLocation(udg_point2)
-------- Again, we define bj_wantDestroyGroup = true --------
Custom script: set bj_wantDestroyGroup = true
-------- This unit group has a large amount of conditions, such as the unit must be alive, and not already on fire. --------
Unit Group - Pick every unit in (Units within 150.00 of point matching (((((Matching unit) is alive) Equal to True) and (((Matching unit) is in group.) Equal to False)) and (((Matching unit) belongs to an enemy of (Owner of (Load 1 of (Key handle.) in hashtable.)).) Equal to True)).) and do (Actions)
Loop - Actions
-------- All of the units here have the same values saved as those that were initially cast upon in the Cast trigger. --------
Unit - Set (Picked unit) movement speed to ((Default movement speed of (Picked unit)) x 2.00)
Unit Group - Add (Picked unit) to group
Special Effect - Create a special effect attached to the origin (Unexpected type: 'attachpoint') of (Picked unit) using Doodads\Cinematic\TownBurningFireEmitter\TownBurningFireEmitter.mdl
-------- The difference being that this time we transfer the data from the unit that the fire was caught from. --------
Hashtable - Save (Load 0 of (Key handle.) from (Last created hashtable).) as 0 of (Key (Picked unit).) in hashtable .
Hashtable - Save Handle Of (Load 1 of (Key handle.) in hashtable.) as 1 of (Key (Picked unit).) in hashtable .
Hashtable - Save (Load 2 of (Key handle.) from hashtable.) as 2 of (Key (Picked unit).) in hashtable .
Hashtable - Save Handle Of (Last created special effect) as 3 of (Key (Picked unit).) in hashtable .
-------- This ensures that all the burned units take into account who the original caster was, and how much damage should be dealt. --------
Custom script: call RemoveLocation(udg_point)
-------- Get rid of leaks! --------
