custom skills via blizzard skills

[blit_40912]

hello peepz,

I'm wondering if I can use all summons in war3 skills (without using Mousebuttons) and use it as a custom skill; like a dragon spawns a fireball in which that fire ball has the skillset:

-order the summoned unit to move 400units onwards its facing.
-fireball has permanent immolation.
-fireball has factory -spawns fireclumps O_O

I'm just trying to exploit all skills within war3arsenal without using to much triggers like MUI and advanced stuff since I'm still learning vector/array and how to clear unused slots in projectile array.

here's my sample trigger:

• fireblast
  • Events
    • Unit - A unit Spawns a summoned unit
  • Conditions
    • (Unit-type of (Summoned unit)) Equal to _req_firebolt
  • Actions
    • Set temp_unit = (Summoned unit)
    • Set temp_loc_from = (Position of (Summoned unit))
    • Set temp_loc_to = ((Position of (Summoned unit)) offset by 400.00 towards (Facing of (Summoned unit)) degrees)
    • Unit - Order (Summoned unit) to Move To temp_loc_to
    • Custom script: call RemoveLocation(udg_temp_loc_to)
    • Custom script: call RemoveLocation(udg_temp_loc_from)
    • Custom script: set udg_temp_unit = null

Not sure , but i think you should set temp_loc_to facing of the summoning unit.
Cuz if the summoned unit faces the wrong direction , it'll be uncontrollable

the spell is MUI and MPI , and looks OK.

I do have a Fireclump trigger. It is activated once a fireclump has spawned from the fireball using the "factory - ability". Here is it:

• dpsstack
  • Events
    • Unit - A unit Spawns a summoned unit
  • Conditions
    • Or - Any (Conditions) are true
      • Conditions
        • (Unit-type of (Summoned unit)) Equal to _temp_diswave
        • (Unit-type of (Summoned unit)) Equal to _req_clump <<< here
  • Actions
    • Set temp_unit = (Summoned unit)
    • Set temp_loc_from = (Position of (Summoned unit))
    • Unit - Order (Summoned unit) to Attack Ground temp_loc_from
    • Custom script: call RemoveLocation(udg_temp_loc_from)
    • Custom script: set udg_temp_unit = null

the unit order seems pointless. any reason?
remove it and its good to go.

I've used the units order atk ground to give it some sort of damage per second on an area, the fireclump has a combat type of artillery with cooldowns. I've used it there to to some area of effect visuals (combat projectile art). the fireclump then end due to factory ability (duration of leashed unit).
