AOE Shadow strike

[Hairybeavet]

how would i go about making an ability that will allow be to make an aoe stadow strike like fan of knives!

events: unit casts an ability
conditions: ability comparison
actions: pick every unit withing XXX range of casting unit and do multpiple actions:
1) create a dummy at position of casting unit (must have a shadow strike based ability (from the warden)
2) order last created unit to 'night elf warden - shadowstrike' random unit withing XXX range of casting unit (issue order targeting a unit)

well now that i thought about it! is there any way to make an AOE Shadow Srike that that will be channeling? and if the casting unit moves then they remove buffs?

Just change the event to "Starts the effect of an ability" and "Stops casting an ability", explore them yourself, interesting.

yea just make a trigger that creates dummys every XXX sec. turn this trigger on when u start casting and turn off when u stop casting (use starfall as base spell)

 

[Hairybeavet]

well i want it to cast and hit them all!
but if he stops channeling then.
remove buff (shadow strike) from all units!
i got the idea i want! i just need a week to fuck around to finsih these spells! dam job and GF... nvr any time!

 

[Ramza]

well, add an action to the 'stop casting' trigger. just have a dummy that has abolish magic with 75 AoE and pick evrry unit with that buff in the map and order the dummy to abolish magic picked unit

ok that sounds good! i would have to make another dummy though! i will see what is easier!
