Gravity Control

[Ironside]

Hello, I want to request a spell for a hero I'm creating for my map:

Spell Name: Gravity Control
Type: Target Unit
Spell Description:

You select the target unit (CAN'T TARGET SELF!!!), then the target gets a buff that lasts 30 seconds.

Caster is paused in the spell dueration and unpaused when it ends

The Player who casted the spell, can control any unit with the buff of that spell with UP, DOWN, LEFT, RIGHT Arrow Keys (this movement is like magic moving, so no animations are played) the target unit can offcourse still move as he wants, but the caster can only with the arrow keys. The speed of the Arrow Keys moving should be about 10 range per 0,03 seconds.

After the target loses the buff, the spell ends.

Possible ways that the buff will be removed in the game: Despell, Death and Caster Event!

Caster Event: If the caster presses the ESCAPE key, then all targets lose the buff, and therefore the spell ends.


Credits and +rep for the one that can make this spell!

Edit:

sry =[

The targeted's unit movement is flying in mid-air or what ?
The targeted can also move while under this effect ?
It'll be conflict with movements don't you think ?

 

[Ironside]

1. well you see, the target can freely move his unit, while the caster moves him with the arrow keys, the arrow keys movement will work like a knockback movement (Move unit Instantly)

2. The units collision won't go off, so every target will be ground unit.

3. It won't conflict much I think.

 

[dardas]

well.. i thought you goddam meant like pein xD
i was like, goddam it how im gonna do that..
but i guess that makes it alot easier =]
if Defskull cant do that, me and InfiniateAnswers will..

 

[Ironside]

Ok ^_^

Barathrum, let's say you target a unit and your caster gets paused, you realise that each caster goes for one unit, right?
Let's say that we don't pause the caster. Now, if the caster affects 7 units, and then another caster (of the same owner) affects additional 3 units, if the owner of the casters presses an arrow key, do you want those 10 units to start moving, or do you want it like this: I select the caster, press the arrow keys and move the units that specific caster affected. So, if I have the first caster selected, it will move his 7 affected units, but if I select the second one, it will move those 3 affected units of his, BUT if I have both casters selected, it will move the 10 units (7 from the first and 3 from the second)?

If you do want this selection system, do you want the units to stop moving, if I select some other unit?

Can a unit be controlled by two players at the same time?

Please, elaborate.

Damn, and I know I've seen a spell that does just that here but I can't find it
May have been rejected

 

[defskull]

By making the targeted unit able to move can cause a lot of conflicts
Set the duration to 5 or 10 seconds and ability to move (change flying height to 300) the targeted unit over 100 movement speed per second is good

The caster does get paused, but each player only has 1 hero, meaning maximum casts of this would be 1 per player, and since you're paused in it, it means it needs to be only MPI not even MUI.

 

[Pharaoh_]

So, one player can maximum control (move) 2 units at a time (one of them being the paused caster and the other one being the target unit), right?

If a caster of a different player casts the ability on a unit that has already been hit by Gravity Control, what do you want to happen?

 

[Ironside]

1 player can only move 1 unit at the time, since caster is paused, you can't move him, you also can't target self.

If you cast on a unit already hit, it will do nothing.

 

[Pharaoh_]

1 player can only move 1 unit at the time, since caster is paused, you can't move him, you also can't target self.

but you said:

The Player who casted the spell, can control any unit with the buff of that spell with UP, DOWN, LEFT, RIGHT Arrow Keys (this movement is like magic moving, so no animations are played) the target unit can offcourse still move as he wants, but the caster can only with the arrow keys. The speed of the Arrow Keys moving should be about 10 range per 0,03 seconds.

Anyway, so, if I cast the ability on a unit, that has been hit by Gravity Control, won't it cause the unit to be under the control of the new caster's owner?

 

[Ironside]

Aww I guess I wrote that very bad then, that line means, that the caster can only control the target with arrow keys, he himself can't move at all.

 

[defskull]

Caster = Cannot move
Targeted = Can be moved with Arrow Keys
Ok Pharaoh_ ?

 

[Pharaoh_]

Hm, ok, check this if it suits your needs:

 

[Ironside]

Works like a charm!

Thank you so much, for both spells!

 

[Vuormalainen]

If you're gonna use arrow keys online, its gonna lag badly.

 

[WherewolfTherewolf]

I've actually seen Arrow Keys work decently for single spells that aren't used all that often in an online game with minimum lag

 

[dardas]

wow.. this was very.. buggy o.o
after the spell ended, it started bugging and moving camera..
when i pressed left/right, camera didnt move with me..
i couldnt even test it.. it was badly buggy..

edit: okay lol that was just the regular key arrows bug.. of instant press.. sry

edit2: yep, after buff it still follows the unit.. (camera)

Then go in the "open source" category. You will find the open-source version of my map, Restricted Complex 601.

Open it with the Jass New Gen Pack. You will find my gravity gun system.

Features:

It is MUI, uses spells. If you know VJass it should not disturb you.

Gentleman,
