Effect/Missile?

[Prorox]

Hey guys,

I have the idea to make a spell which pulls an enemy to the position of a casting unit

It's for a strategy game, but I really need a model for this;
I thought about a net with a rope like you cast the ability then the net with rope after it goes at enemy and then it can be bulled back ._.

I don't know if such an effect/ missile or whatever is possible ... but would be epic if someone could do it

By the way, I also search someone for making icons (many icons ... for a dwarf race, there are nearly none fitting on hive unfortunally, It's this game:http://www.hiveworkshop.com/forums/project-recruitment-256/world-248946/
So if anybody wants to help you're welcome !!)

Well, all lightning effects are instant.

Yeah but you could make no lightning effect but a missile a net with rope behind.. I think that would fix it

But the missile will dissapear when it hits the target, I don't know if it is possible to make it last through the whole dragging spell.

hmmm maybe make an effect

[Prorox]

You can use a lightning and periodically update its position. Start at time=0 with a lightning from (position of caster) to (position of caster) and recreate the lightning for timesteps t = 1 to 100 (arbitrary number) like this:

Recreate lightning from:
(position of caster)
to:
(position of caster) + t * (position of target - position of caster)/100

This way it looks like the lightning connects the caster to a missile flying from the caster to the target. You can do the same thing in reversed order to pull the target back to the caster.

Yeah thats an idea ^^, but wouldn't if be simple if just someone could create the effect? also: I anyway need a rope lightning then
