[JASS] Charge spell

[l1lshadow]

I'm kinda starting jass and i was just wondering how do you make a spell that makes the caster faster and his damage gets stronger for a short amount of time.

 

[Arvedui]

Look at this map by emjlr3

it has the charge ability, I don't mean you should copy it, but learn from it.

And GUI is inferior to JASS.

 

[Kwah]

It is inferiror. If you look at my title it states that I am learning/beggining JASS. But the skill would be amazingly simple to make in GUI.

 

[Arvedui]

I know.. it would be.. but as he said he was beginning jass as well.. why not start off with something easy?
it's rare that you actually find someone that wants to learn.. just let him try it.

Thanks the charge ability is exactly what i wanted.(Charge of Darkness)

I have a question though

call IssueTargetOrderById(GetTriggerUnit(),851983,GetSpellTargetUnit())

what does this mean?

 

[PurplePoot]

ById uses an OrderId rather than an OrderString.

851983 happens to be "attack".

I made my spell, i copied and pasted it and edited it heres what i got

Edit: woah thats huge!

 

[Kwah]

Uhh, why is it so huge for such a simple spell. I still am voting for GUI for this spell.

There is no voting here, hes learning JASS and he wanted to make it in JASS, so just leave GUI outside of this...

 

[PurplePoot]

GUI cannot possibly be shorter than Jass anyways.

 

[Kwah]

Ok. I'll take your word for it.

 

[l1lshadow]

Lol it looks so complicated that i'm even dizzy.
