Triggers

Hi everyone,

This is the second real spell I ever made.
It is MUI and should be quite user-friendly.

To use this spell, copy the "Deafening Strike" folder and paste it into your trigger.
IMPORTANT: You should go into your preferences and set auto create variables for important trigger to yes before importing.
Then you have to import the dummy unit in the object editor or create your own.
The same you have to do with the "Defeaning Strike" spell, or create another spell.

This spell is free to use, but I would appreciate, if you gave me credits, when using it.
If you have any suggestions, detect any leaks/bugs or just to tell me it's a good spell (;D), just wirte a PM at hiveworkshop.com to Roflcoptor.

Credits go to the almighty paladon (again) for the respawn things, for just being almighty and for fixing a bug
(as everytime) and of course all hail to palaslayer, who brought me to real mapping (other than just changing model datas ;)), who tought me a lot, and the most important thing: who explained me MUI, and besides, from whom I got this beautiful testmap.

That's all so far

Ok here we go with some help for some questions which could be asked:

Q: How do I get the string text from a special effect?
A: Just create an action "Create Special Effect", then pick "Choose model" and select the model, which you want. After that you can see at the bottom the string of the special effect. Mark it (it then appears in grey) and press ctrl+c. Then cancel, so the action isn't created. Now you go to the variable and simply press ctrl+v where you have to enter the special effect string.

Q: Where do I get the names of attachment points from?
A: There is a great amount of possibilities: First I can tell you some, I know: chest (should be clear); origin (It's the base of the model, where for example the blue circle from auras are.); overhead (also quite self-explaining); hand right; hand left (these are the two hands^^); weapon (the difference to "hand" is, that it is at the weapon. If we take for example a felguard, the hands would be, where hands are ;), and the weapon would be the top of the sword;
The second possibility is to look in the object editor, at the spells and buffs.
The third possibility is to ask some experienced people at thehive or google it or whatsoever.

Q: Fine now I got these two strings, but now you want an animation? :/
A: At this point, I can tell you the same as at point 2: First thing is just read what I've got here: attack; spell; slam (for example the blademaster's critical strike)
Second is to take a look at the object editor
and third is to ask someone with experience in this.
However you should always be aware, that not all animations are available on all model datas (you won't see any "slamming" peon)

Q: Ok although you gave us quite some possibilities to change your spell, I'm still not satisfied, because I want to change something, which is not possible with your "Actions to apply".
A: Either you go into the "DefeaningStrikeInit" and "DefeaningStrikeRun" trigger, and change it, or you ask me! But if you change it, you should be aware that all triggers change, for example if you change the damage type, the damage type will be changed for all triggers using this. To avoid this you just copy the triggers, modify them, and then refer to those new triggers.

Q: Roflcoptor, you completely suck! This spell is full of leaks, has no full MUI and/or is bugged! What can I do to stop you?
A: Ok if you discover anything like this (which is hopefully unlikely), just tell me at hiveworkshop.com! If you don't like the spell, I've got a simple solution for you: Don't use it! If you improve this spell or fix any leaks, please tell me how you made, and why it had to be done, because this is my second real project and I want to understand, what I did wrong.

Q: You haven't answered an important question here.
A: Just PM at hiveworkshop.com
