Hanky:
There are just two things that I dislike. First of your spell could be really laggy since there are so many effects. The second point I dislike is the indexing system. But apart from that two things the spell is fine enough. Approved!

You do the damage with carrion swarm?

The end trigger wont work as it only will remove the last caster, how about if another caster wants to stop it? Just make it a loop and it will be fixed

You should turn off the periodic in the end trigger

 

[cyberkid]

from screen looks nice, I found no leaks, enough documentation for noobs like me, but your trigger "End" can be puted in loop trigger by using if/then/else, ofc it's just my opinion =)

Good Work!
EDIT: also you turning on loop, but don't turning off it when it not used.

4/5 - vote for approval

+MUI
+Enchanted description
+Nice visual effects
-I guess you can remove the last trigger (Fire And Ice Synergie End)
-Very laggy when the spell is casted in row

*Notes & Recomandations*
-Remove "If you cast this spell multiple time in a row, it could be laggy. Sorry." from spell description
-Fix the start location (put it in position of hero)

You do the damage with carrion swarm?

Yes because:1- I don't know how to make a constant speed
2- I don't know how to damage the enemy only once whit trigger into periodic trigger

how about if another caster wants to stop it?

I didn't realy understand what you mean there, Do you mean something like immolation?

EDIT: also you turning on loop, but don't turning off it when it not used.

Oops...my bad...

And for finish I'll try to remove the last trigger...


Edit:

-Remove "If you cast this spell multiple time in a row, it could be laggy. Sorry." from spell description

Well , I just want to prevent tester of this

 

[baassee]

• Unit Group - Remove FICaster[FIIndex[1]] from FICasterGroup[FIIndex[1]]

This line dont work in the end trigger because?

Lets say 5 ppl starts to cast this

1 2 3 4 5

Number 2 ends before the rest so it's

1 3 4 5

your action will instead of removing number 2, remove number 5 as it is the last number in the indexing (Index[1])

just loop it threw instead

neah ... let them see the lag

 

[Dr. Boom]

Seas =)

I think this spell would be cooler if the fire deals [for example] dps and the ice slows the targets down =)

Else the lag is a bad point too, so I think I will give 3,5/5 - if you make some changes with the fire and ice [for example] I would give 4,5/5 [ -0,5 for the lag]

Try something against the lags, + for approval.

 

[baassee]

to reduce the lagg, make a counter to check intervals and fire the swarms after as it now fires 6 swarms every 0.06, it just makes sense to lagg

What is suppose to be a "counter to check intervals" and maybe I should reduce the loop to 4 swarm instead of 6 , it will reduce the lag and it will maybe stay cool.

 

[baassee]

Every tick you set a integer to +1 and you check with an ITE if it reached a certain number. When it do, you swarm all shit and then resets it

Now i'm rather noob to this with editing, but when i try to copy this spell to my own map it isent working, some of the files are " bugged ", i belive its some of the triggers, however the spell work perfectly in the map i did download, why is it bugged, and how can i fix it?

 

[-Kobas-]

Well I used you spell as base for my one!
I created some new effect add/remove some stuff etc etc
Thanks it looks really cool but it lag terrible! It lag on temp map lol my map was almost crushed when I cast spell ingame ^^

+REP and I put ya in Credits (Must wait to upload new map version)

 

[Arisato]

quite useful, i might use it for my map ^^ when the mage comes!

 

[mathias4u]

are there somebody there can help me to import spells i have tryed many times but its not working

 

[Shattersky]

Hm, I have copied all the triggers, variables, units, and the abilities (On a different map)

But when I go in and use it, it only does the initiation part, lasts for only .40 secs (I believe) and after that quick use it doesn't show the graphics after that. I know this is a little bit older spell but If I could get some help, please?

 

[Oljin]

quite a lot of animations, and when i played alone (1 player) with multiple heroes (3 kaelthas) then their spells were linked somehow, so it was not really MUI when i play alone. but i it's different when multiple players cast it, then it works. So it's just "half MUI" for me...

and also i had to increase the trigger periodic time from 0.03 seconds to 0.1 seconds, because it was too laggy on local games (1v1) when creating so many animations within 0.03 seconds.

 

[Oljin]

I rewrote the whole trigger to make it IMO MUI.
I used a more sophisticated indexing system I learned from other spells.

I don't need the caster group now. Also, I can cast it multiple times on the same hero (with reset ability cooldowns i spammed it on a single hero before it turned off) and on many heroes with many spells active (totally spammed it as hard as i could). and it worked out correctly and still worked afterwards.

Here are the triggers:
