[Trigger] Cast spell at random location

[Ryuuzaki]

How can I make my hero to cast spell based on breath of fire at random location?

current trigger(which works with breath of fire, but I want to make it work with my spell:

• Actions
  • Set random = (Random integer number between 0 and 101)
  • If (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions)
    • If - Conditions
      • random Less than or equal to 100
    • Then - Actions
      • Unit - Order (Triggering unit) to Neutral Pandaren Brewmaster - Breath Of Fire (Random point in (Region centered at (Position of (Triggering unit)) with size (100.00, 100.00)))
    • Else - Actions

Rather use the function "Position with polar offset". With this function you can choose an angle, and for your angle you can use the real function "random angle".

By the way, you're leaking locations. See here for more information on how to fix it: http://www.hiveworkshop.com/forums/triggers-scripts-269/things-leak-35124/

Works better, but how do I replace breath of fire with my custom made spell?

 

[rulerofiron99]

Every spell has something called a "use/turn on string", which for breath of fire is something like "breathoffire".

So if you make a custom version of breath of fire for your hero, ordering it to cast breath of fire will make it cast that custom spell, because its use string is still the same as breath of fire.

To cast any spell, just order the unit to cast the spell you based it on.

e.g. if you have an aoe spell with Blizzard as the base, order it to cast blizzard.

yeah I know about the string thing but still it doesn't work.
When I added firebreath to hero it was fine...
Let me note that the custom firebreath is located in spellbook, might that be the case?

• Actions
  • Set random = (Random integer number between 0 and 101)
  • If (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions)
    • If - Conditions
      • random Less than or equal to 100
    • Then - Actions
      • Unit - Order (Triggering unit) to Neutral Pandaren Brewmaster - Breath Of Fire (Random point in (Region centered at (Position of (Triggering unit)) with size (100.00, 100.00)))
    • Else - Actions

Maybe there's other way to do it?
Something like :
unit starts casting an ability
ability equal to custom breath of fire
actions: order unit to cast spell at random anglee

Is there a way to do it like this?

what's the event?

are you making AI? you want the unit to cast breath of fire at a given time?
*make sure the ability has less cooldown
