Custom Ability Problem!

[reason 3]

Hey all,

Yesterday i was modyfing a default ability.... blink, and i changed the art effects to tornado spin effect.

The result was just what i wanted, i only encountered 1 problem. The tornados created by my blink(as an effect) continued to spin ...for a lot time after i did my blink.

For example, i blink just 300 range in front of me, a tornado effect is created at my initial position and at the position i blinked. Then the tornados keep spinning and disappear after 10-15 seconds or so...

Does anyone knows how to fix this?If not, the i guess i will have to trigger the spell on my own.

+rep for anyone who finds a solution!

It's because the effect itself takes 5.00 seconds to die + 5.00 seconds from the Gameplay Constants from the field Decay time (sec) - Effects.

You can create a dummy unit with the model of the tornado spin and use both actions Unit - Kill Unit and Unit - Remove Unit, to instantly remove it from the game.

Hmm..thanks.

I will try reducing those seconds from Gameplay Constants, and if it still isn't good enough i will trigger it.

I was just hoping to deal with this one without triggers.

(I would rep you if i could, but i need to spread!)

Gameplay Constants are global settings, as you might know. If you change the decay time just for the sake of the tornado, lots of other models will be affected.

Hmm, you are right..i will have to make a few tests.

Anyway, i guess i can't do anything but trigger the spell.

Thanks again.

Best way is to find a better model, hmm

Suggestions:
- A custom Model
- Use the tornado slow buff effect, that one disappears quicker
