[Spell] FlamingArrows is not in the "Issue Order targeting a unit"-Action?

[The_New_Divide]

Anyone know where this is? I want, thats a unit use this spell in a special situation.


Dont tell me i should use "ActivateFlamingArrows". This can´t work for my goal!

Didn't see it on first glance in the menu, so if it's not there, you can use custom script:

• Custom script: call IssueTargetOrderBJ(CASTER, "flamingarrowstarg", TARGET)

Replace CASTER and TARGET with either variable or function call of the casting unit and targeted unit.

I'll use unit variables u1 and u2 as an example:

• Custom script: call IssueTargetOrderBJ(udg_u1, "flamingarrowstarg", udg_u2)

Excellent Nichilus. My Customscript-Skill is bad. I will try this.

What i must write when u1 is "attacking unit" and u2 "triggering unit"?

 

[Nichilus]

it's nothing hard lol, just copy'n'paste... if you use variables in custom script, just make sure they have udg_ prefix in the custom script.
e.g. a variable named u1 has to be "udg_u1" in custom script.


Edit: for what you must write... you can either save those units beforehand into variables - e.g.

• Set u1 = (Attacking unit)
• Set u2 = (Triggering unit)
• Custom script: call IssueTargetOrderBJ(udg_u1, "flamingarrowstarg", udg_u2)

Or as a function call:
GetTriggerUnit() = Triggering unit
GetAttacker() = Attacking unit

So then it would be:

• Custom script: call IssueTargetOrderBJ(GetAttacker(), "flamingarrowstarg", GetTriggerUnit())

Great. It´s working now.

But it was a little confusing: The graphiceffect was not seeing, just the normal projectile.

 

[Nichilus]

Hmm there may be something wrong then - does the target take increased damage from the arrow? If not, then the caster did not use flamingarrows.

I made my own test triggers and all worked fine, so I don't know where the problem could be.
Can you post your trigger?

 

[The_New_Divide]

• Firespears
  • Ereignisse
    • Einheit - A unit be attacked
  • Bedingungen
    • (Level of Firespears for (Attacking unit)) bigger then gleich 1
  • Aktionen
    • Set FirespearsCaster = (Attacking unit)
    • Set FirespearsTarget = (Attacked unit)
    • Custom script: call IssueTargetOrderBJ(udg_FirespearsCaster, "flamingarrowstarg", udg_FirespearsTarget)

Some important notes:

-The cooldown of the ability is 30 seconds. This cooldown work. It needs 30 seconds then for the next cast. Also this works.
-Graphicprojectile and Damage doesnt work.

 

[Nichilus]

The trigger looks okay, so the problem is most likely not there.
I'm at a loss as to what could be the problem.
The only thing that comes to my mind is that the Caster has another (Passive?) ability which collides/replaces the flaming arrow or that the Firespears ability is not based off Searing Arrows (though this is less likely to be the case)

 

[The_New_Divide]

The normal ability works; its the "flamingarrow"-ability.
The caster have poisonattacks and activable/deactivable dispel(But this was not reached by testing it).
