Force Staff - Question

redblack · Oct 17, 2010

Hello, I need help with an item. It's Force Staff from DOTA.

Stats:
+10 Intelligence
+10 damage
+10% attack speed
Force (Active)
|
|
Force
Pushes any unit 600 units in the direction it is facing over a 0.3s duration.
Does not interrupt the target's actions.
Costs 25 mana, has a 20 second cooldown, and a 800 cast range.
Any ideas ?

If you want to make this item, use http://www.hiveworkshop.com/forums/spells-569/gui-knockback-system-paladon-v-1-60-a-107719/?prev=search%3Dknockback%26d%3Dlist%26r%3D20, and all other stuff is simple

redblack · Oct 17, 2010

It knockbacks, I want to push unit to way it's facing.

Lambdadelta · Oct 17, 2010

Then get a sliding / knockback system that allows you to set the direction of travel?

Nightmare Moon · Oct 17, 2010

Knockback is a push. I don't see any difference.

Well, my idea:

Have 2 Triggers:

ActivateForceStaff - Triggers if the item ability is used

Here you store the angle of your hero and the target unit.
We'll also need a maximum moving distance (e.g. 500).
Last thing needed is the speed of the charging.
Oh, and turn the units collison off!!

ForceAngle - global
ForceTarget - global
ForceDistance - global
ForceSpeed - global

Then you activate a periodic trigger (all 0.03s) MoveForceStaffTarget
MoveForceStaffTarget - it will move our target, we need 2 locations:

CurrentLoc - our units current location (really...^^)
DestinatedLoc - the position the unit will step to, all 0.03s

First we check if the ForceDistance is more than ForceSpeed. If so we have to move the target:

We need this usefull function: PolarProjectionBJ(CurrentLoc, ForceSpeed, ForceAngle)
to get the next position (DestinatedLoc) of the unit.

After that you could check if the terrain at this point is walkable (or a cliff) and move it instantly to this point. (==> IsTerrainPathableBJ(DestinatedLoc, PATHING_TYPE_WALKABILITY) )

Finaly you store the new remaining distance to ForceDistance (it is: ForceDistance = ForceDistance - ForceSpeed)

If the ForceDistanc is below ForceSpeed you'll have to enable collision for the target!

I hope that helps, ask if i sth. isn't explained properly or if it's my english^^

My idea is this xD
Events:
A unit start an effect of an ability
Condition:
Ability being cast Equal to Force Staff(push item)
Actions:
Set Target_Push_Unit = Target unit of ability being cast
Trigger - Turn on Pushing
Unit - Turn collision for Target_Push_Unit Off
Wait 0.45 Seconds
Trigger - Turn off Pushing
Unit - Turn collision for Target_Push_Unit On

Pushing:
Events:
Time - Every 0.01 seconds of game time
Condition:
None(xD,Condition does no use==)
Actions:
Move Target_Push_Unit instantly to ((Position of Target_Push_Unit) offset by 12.00 towards (Facing of Target_Push_Unit) degrees)
Special Effect - (Choose your Special Effect xD i lazy say=.=)
Special Effect - Destroy Last Create Special Effect
End =.=

Leaks.

So,you have idea?==
I also don't know how to make xD==
Give trigger to teach

defskull · Oct 17, 2010

No, I mean I have the same method with you. but I used a lag-less trigger, which is 0.03s ~ 0.05s per move.
0.01s per move is just too... FAST and can cause bugs and heavy lags
The way to clean those leaks is by indexing and hashtabling but that method goes beyond my standard =(

Oh,i don't know use hashtable==
but hashtable can clean those leaks?
And the 0.03 ~ 0.05s won't make the game lag anymore?==

defskull · Oct 17, 2010

Increasing the time of Periodic Timer will PREVENT the trigger to be lagged more often
It's LOGIC dude
The faster your car, the more chance you will get hit by trees on road

GangSpear said:

Nope. If you use 0.01 sec it will happen 100 times in 1 sec, while 0.03 gives 33.3 times per sec and 0.05 gives 20 times.

From what I remember WC III have a maximum fps around 47, so 0.01 would be an overkill.

Lambdadelta · Oct 18, 2010

47? I thought it was 64. So basically, you should aim for a timer period of 1.5625

But because people like me have crap computers and get general FPS of 35 ish, 0.03125 seems optimal (32 FPS). Why? IDK LOL.

the spell his asking for doesent work like that there is no target point... because the ability is casted on a unit and the unit will move the direction he is facing.

35 FPS is high. ^^ I played wc3 on 1 to 10 FPS for 4 years, and I get used to it

Anyway, every 0.05 or 0.10 would be the best timer, with no laggz..

you can set the knockback angle right? just set that angle to the unit's facing...

dude, the trigger is SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO long and SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO hard for you to understand. Even for me it's eyes pop-out like

My idea is this:

Force Staff
- Events
  - Unit - A unit Starts the effect of an ability
- Conditions
  - (Ability being cast) Equal to Item Dispel (with cooldown)
- Actions
  - Set Forcer = (Triggering unit)
  - Unit - Turn collision for (Triggering unit) Off
  - Set Force_Distance = 600.00
  - Trigger - Turn on Force Staff Loop <gen>

Force Staff Loop
- Events
  - Time - Every 0.03 seconds of game time
- Conditions
- Actions
  - If (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions)
    - If - Conditions
      - Force_Distance Less than or equal to 0.00
    - Then - Actions
      - Unit - Turn collision for Forcer On
      - Trigger - Turn off (This trigger)
    - Else - Actions
      - Set Force_Pos = (Position of Forcer)
      - Set Force_Pos_Off = (Force_Pos offset by 50.00 towards (Facing of Forcer) degrees)
      - Destructible - Pick every destructible within 150.00 of Force_Pos and do (Actions)
        
        Loop - Actions
        
        If (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions)
        
        If - Conditions
        
        (Destructible-type of (Picked destructible)) Equal to Summer Tree Wall
        
        Then - Actions
        
        Destructible - Kill (Picked destructible)
        
        Else - Actions
      - Unit - Move Forcer instantly to Force_Pos_Off
      - Special Effect - Create a special effect attached to the origin of Forcer using Abilities\Weapons\AncientProtectorMissile\AncientProtectorMissile.mdl
      - Set Force_Sfx = (Last created special effect)
      - Special Effect - Destroy Force_Sfx
      - Set Force_Distance = (Force_Distance - 50.00)
      - Custom script: call RemoveLocation(udg_Force_Pos)
      - Custom script: call RemoveLocation(udg_Force_Pos_Off)

I might have missed something, but i will be back in few minutes and tested if this works correctly (;

EDIT: Checked, did it by myself, attaching a test map. Changed the triggers
Don't mind the map name, i use this map to help hivers, you can find some other things inside the map.
