aoe entangling roots?

[kdrocker666]

how would a go about making it? ive tried increasing the area of effect on entangling roots but i still only hit one person, i tried creating one based off blizzard, they take the damage over time but they can still move.

{EDIT}
i also tried to make a trigger that pauses units hit by it and then unpausing them after like 10 seconds but i failed n ended up pausing my hero forever...

This works this way:

You need a few things:

1. at first create a spell which is the heroes spell (let it call AoE Roots). It is based on silence. Very important: turn every efect of silence off and set the targeted units to no units. This spell is only used to start the trigger and cost mana etc...
2. then create a spell (called root dummy) which is based on entangling roots. Here you enter all the values. This ability will be casted on all enemies in the AoE. VERY IMPORTANT: this spell has cooldown 1 sec and does not cost any manapoints. This spell is no hero-spell
3. Create a unit, add the ability locust (makes this unit untouchable), remove the units model (makes the unit unvisible). u can call this unit dummy.


This is all you need. Then create this


Afterwards create this trigger.



When the Hero no casts his ability there will be one dummy for each enemy unit in the AoE you set in the trigger. This dummy will cats roots on the single units.


Im sorry for the half english and halv german but please use a dictionary

Doing this in GUI isn't the best idea because it will only target one unit at a time.

As i tried it yesterday it worked without any problems i always use gui and never had any problems. U cannot cast it the same time. the engine is too fast. If you could built it without gui using jass this would be better.


By the way, here i got the ability as map, look at it and test it
