[Trigger] Event for checking when a unit

[BagOfChips]

stops using immolation? As in turning it off?

ty for help in advance.

Check when a unit makes a Order With No Target and put your order as a condition.

 

[BagOfChips]

Here's what I did... but no worky =/

• Tornado Off
  • Events
    • Unit - A unit Is issued an order with no target
  • Conditions
    • (Issued order) Equal to (Order((Name of Storm Slow (Storm))))
  • Actions
    • Set Tornados = (Units in (Playable map area) matching ((Unit-type of (Matching unit)) Equal to Tornado))
    • Unit Group - Pick every unit in Tornados and do (Unit - Kill (Picked unit))
    • Custom script: call DestroyGroup(udg_Tornados)
    • Trigger - Turn off (This trigger)

 

[Dreadnought[dA]]

lol

issued order = unimmolation

that should work

 

[BagOfChips]

lol

issued order = unimmolation

that should work

Thanks, I guess now there's something wrong with my actions, but the trigger does get run.

• Actions
  • Set Tornados = (Units in (Playable map area) matching ((Unit-type of (Matching unit)) Equal to Tornado))
  • Unit Group - Pick every unit in Tornados and do (Unit - Remove (Picked unit) from the game)
  • Custom script: call DestroyGroup(udg_Tornados)
  • Trigger - Turn off (This trigger)

Does anyone see anything wrong with this? Tornado is a unit spawned by a trigger that turns this one on.

I do see the error of triple posting

But other than that, i can only see that it will remove other players tornados as well, not MUI.

Only one person can pick each tower race, and the best towers of each race are limited to 1 per player. (So why bother making it MUI?)

As of now it doesn't remove the tornados =/ I've tried to kill them too.

 

[Sabertooth]

That tornadoes variable looks un-needed. I don't know if the fact that it's a variable matters, but it's not MUI soooo

• Tornado Off
• Events
  • Unit - A unit is issued an order with no target.
• Conditions
  • (Issued order) equal to (unimmolation)
• Actions
  • Unit Group - Pick every unit in (Units in Playable map area) matching ((Unit-type of matching unit equal to Tornado)) and do ((Unit - Kill (Picked Unit))

Try it like that, I know having the variable and then removing it is cleaner, but you never know.

Oh, you didn't say that.

anyway i don't know why it wouldn't remove the tornados, but i think it lies within your first action.
I don't use that version to get that effect though.
Try to do it like me.

Actions
Pick all units in (Playable map area) matching condition (unit-type of (Matching unit) is equal to tornado.
Loop
Add (Picked unit) to (Tornados)
Pick all units in (Tornados) and do actions
Loop
remove (Picked unit) from the game

No work still =/

 

[Dr Super Good]

Immolation leaves a buff on the affected unit if I am not mistaken. Thus you can detect when it is turned off by when the buff is lost. Also remember that as it chews mana it turns off when there is not enough mana and thus it will not register an order being given in that situation.

 

[terradont]

Y, that would probably work, check for the immolation (caster) buff instead in conditions, or the edited version. If you just removed it from the ability, it will have the default buff(immolation(caster))

How do I check if a unit has a certain buff? the only buff condition I see is "Buff equal to buff".

also, what event would I use? A unit stops ability ?

 

[terradont]

Well, that's a common "newbie" error that also i did before. It's a little "hidden"

It's under Boolean - Unit has specific buff

        • Unit - Remove (Picked unit) from the game

Still no go =/

 

[terradont]

then i have no idea, i could try doing the trigger myself, and then send it to you, but that probably won't happen until tomorrow, im to tired atm.

alright

if you wanna email it to me: [email protected]

hopefully I'll remember to look there haha

 

[redscores]

what should the spell do?

so i can help you

 

[BagOfChips]

Pretty much -

1.) Tower Casts Immolation
2.) Tornados are spawned by trigger and wander about.
3.) If immolation is turned off, the tornados should die.

Step 3 doesn't work.

 

[redscores]

Thats it, 20 seconds of work.

Take this trigger, specify your tower as the unit which is ordered and put the actions in there.

Or i could just let Redscores do it instead, since he is better than me

Ty, that part works but...

• Immolation Detection
  • Events
    • Unit - A unit Is issued an order with no target
  • Conditions
    • (Issued order) Equal to (Order(unimmolation))
    • (Unit-type of (Ordered unit)) Equal to Weather Control Center
  • Actions
    • Game - Display to (All players) the text: TEST
    • Set Tornados = (Units in (Playable map area) matching ((Unit-type of (Matching unit)) Equal to Tornado))
    • Unit Group - Pick every unit in Tornados and do (Unit - Remove (Picked unit) from the game)
    • Custom script: call DestroyGroup(udg_Tornados)
    • Trigger - Turn off (This trigger)
    • Trigger - Turn off Tornado Mana <gen>

When I put it in my map, and changed the actions, all it does is the game display. I don't see why the rest of the actions don't work. (If it helps the tornadoes are based off of the default tornados).

 

[redscores]

Okay, i did the remove stuff in the map too.

I am sure that works.

Great. Works.

+ rep

 

[redscores]

No problem, just doing my work, which i love.

Now on to the Hurricane attack for my tower.

lots of fun to watch the invades go splat.
