[Trigger] Auto Trigger

[Guishiu]

I need a trigger that "triggers", lol, when a skill auto ends.
Ex. Immolation autoshuts off,
I need the trigger to run when this happens.

 

[Inferior]

just create an UnitOrderEvent trigger. check the orderstring in object editor. e.g. immolation/unimmolation

 

[Guishiu]

I tried that with
Order (Convert string into Order(unimmolation))
and
Nightelf-Order, Deactivate Immolation

Neither of them will work

some triggers.

A unit cast a ability

Ability = immolatio

Wait (how many secs u want to make the spell end)
Do ur trigger.

yea, umm. what?
the trigger needs to be immediate? i guess is what youre asking.

The method with the order string should really work. Make sure you have no typos and teh right conditions,actions

 

[Guishiu]

No, it doesnt. I know it doesnt because Im using. it only triggers when I manually deactivate the spell. Instead it needs to do it when the spell turns itself off.

You mean when mana runs out? I think you got no other option but put every unit that casts immolation in a group (order event and order string comparison) and check if it has enough mana with a periodic trigger,, of course also check if it doesnt order to turn off in between, if so,, remove the unit from the group,,

• Order
  • Events
    • Unit - A unit Is issued an order with no target
  • Conditions
  • Actions
    • If (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions)
      • If - Conditions
        • (Issued order) Equal to (Order(immolation))
      • Then - Actions
        • Unit Group - Add (Triggering unit) to ImmolationGroup
      • Else - Actions
        • If (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions)
          • If - Conditions
            • (Issued order) Equal to (Order(unimmolation))
          • Then - Actions
            • Unit Group - Remove (Triggering unit) from ImmmolationGroup
          • Else - Actions

• Periodic
  • Events
    • Time - Every 0.25 seconds of game time
  • Conditions
  • Actions
    • Unit Group - Pick every unit in (Last created unit group) and do (Actions)
      • Loop - Actions
        • If (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions)
          • If - Conditions
            • (Mana of (Picked unit)) Less than 0.40
          • Then - Actions
            • Game - Display to (All players) the text: HIS MANA RAN OUT WHILE USING IMMOLATION
          • Else - Actions

I am not sure about the 0.40 real number in the comparison,, you should ask someone about it,,

 

[Guishiu]

I'll just make it shut off when their mana gets below 10.
But yeah, it looks like I have no other choice. Great Idea man thanks. Thats kinda what I had been working towards, when making my trigger. Just for some reason my mind kept going around the Unit Group idea.
Plus rep to you brother.

 

[CrueIIntentions]

There is also a wait until condition - checking every (x seconds)you could use. That would save the if/then/else, as well as the using a separate trigger. I have a similar trigger which uses immolation/ unimmolation. then run the trigger.

 

[Yixx]

Well, you seem to forget that wait until condition does the same, it makes a loop with a triggersleepaction in it (wait) and it only exits when the condition is true,, what we do is more accurate, since TriggerSleepAction(wait) really sucks ballz,, and that also doesnt cover the turning off immolation, what if you turn it on, it waits, waits, you turn it off, but it still waits untill you have 0 mana, what if he wants to make an effect when it turns off the immolation, it could stop the waiting when you do a spell that uses exactly the same amount of mana that you have got left, it would make the effect then,,

 

[Guishiu]

well, my spell requires a mana buffer of over 10, so it would be fine.
And for the others, If it checks for the buff that the spell gives, so is previously shut off by the spell and in another trigger. then this one wouldnd need to run.
Here is the reason I need this to work. My DBZ Spellpack. Just incase you wanted to take a look at the spell so far.
