[Trigger] Gui system! what do you want?

[kewlthis]

Hi! Iv started to create my own spells system (inspired by paladon )

What would you like you to see in it? I was thinking of adding.
collision and maybe knockback, due gui´s ineffiency more stuff might cause more lagg....so meh...

So far you can do the following with the system:
- create cones
- create novas
- change speeds/duration of the effects
- change delay of the effects
- create strairght line missile

And here is a picture of it. Maybe this will begin new era of gui spells

This should go in the Idea Factory section.

Seems nice, add channeling skills, that turns around the caster, or such

 

[Huurka]

This should go in the Idea Factory section.

Why?

 

[Avator]

Because he's looking for idea's and this section is for questions about triggering issues if I'm not mistaken.

"Discussions regarding GUI triggers & JASS/AI scripts may be found here."

 

[Avator]

And with such a thread, you think of Triggers & Scripts before you think about Idea Factory? Sorry to tell you, but I think it has more in common with gaining idea's, even though it's in GUI...

What would you like you to see in it? I was thinking of adding (..)

Just this proves that it should be idea factory.

 

[kewlthis]

Well the matter is highly related to triggers + I was planning on releasing the map for other people so....its fine here.


*fixed cone bug, it looks wrong on the old pic.

 

[Avator]

Well it's not a big deal, I was just saying that it might be nice to keep in mind next time.
And I like to keep pushing stubborn people xD

 

[kewlthis]

Meh now I started to wonder why havent I dont this before. Its suprisingly easier to make cooler spells like this.

*added same spells with just effect changed.

I since worked on a system which allows you to call a custom battle mode if an enemy encounters. The battle mode reminded to final fantasy and such.
But whatever, i haven´t the time to continue on it.
Maybe you may create something similar?

 

[TheBlooddancer]

Okay. I like such systems.
I'm actually going to create a Jass 'Create Multiboardsystem' which takes any values for creating and changes all what you need.

Nah. I just want to do spell system. Maybe even adding somekind of shield spells system or something.

 

[Paladon]

Kay.

@ Paladon: What kind of system do you mean? Just the turn-based ATB Gauged battle system? If so: I posted a tutorial for that on THW. It's completely GUI, so very easy ^^

@ TheBloodDancer: Why JASS? You can make it just as easily in GUI with ability buttons or text messages like '-make multiboard Test' (creates the multiboard), '-Make size 11 03' (Changes size to 11 rows and 3 columns), etc. JASS is more work then it's worth and half of the people don't know any JASS.

 

[TheBlooddancer]

Avator, cause in jass, if i create a function, that takes such, i can just

• Custom script: call CreatMultiBoard(This is a multiboard, 600, 200, 4, 6, true, 0)

Or such.
That would create a multiboard called This is a multiboard, 600 broad, 200 heigh, 4 rows, and 6 collumns. And it should be shown to player red.

Its easier than making all of thoose actions in GUI.

 

[Avator]

But annoying to edit for GUIers, which are (like I said before) a lot. But it's your system, so your call.
