triggering unit disappears after a wait time, I suggest you use a variable instead. (or even better a local variable, so it can be MUI)

 

[Mocreiazul]

could u explain how to do that ???
im a little nooby with triggers

im pretty sure thats not the problem, because triggering unit is the only one that doesnt disappear after a wait time, iirc.

and i dont know if possible but if it is what i would like to do is to make the effect of the spell depending on its level and not the level of the hero !!

Thats not very hard =D this is what you want.

Events
Unit - A unit Starts the effect of an ability
Conditions
(Ability being cast) Equal to Divine Intelligence
Actions
If (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions)
    If - Conditions
        (Level of Divine Intelligence for (Triggering unit)) Equal to 1
    Then - Actions
        Hero - Modify Intelligence of (Triggering unit): Add X
        Wait X seconds
        Hero - Modify Intelligence of (Triggering unit): Subtract X
    Else - Actions
        Do nothing
If (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions)
    If - Conditions
        (Level of Divine Intelligence for (Triggering unit)) Equal to 2
    Then - Actions
        Hero - Modify Intelligence of (Triggering unit): Add X
        Wait X seconds
        Hero - Modify Intelligence of (Triggering unit): Subtract X
    Else - Actions
        Do nothing
If (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions)
    If - Conditions
        (Level of Divine Intelligence for (Triggering unit)) Equal to 3
    Then - Actions
        Hero - Modify Intelligence of (Triggering unit): Add X
        Wait X seconds
        Hero - Modify Intelligence of (Triggering unit): Subtract X
    Else - Actions
        Do nothing

Lemme know if this works.

so what i got to do is ..instead of putting unit begins casting an ability i put starts the effect of an ability ?

 

[paskovich]

This can be made much simpler:

Events
Unit - A unit Starts the effect of an ability
Conditions
(Ability being cast) Equal to Divine Intelligence
Actions
Set MyHero = Triggering unit
Set X = 10 + (Level of Divine Intelligence for (Triggering unit) * 5)
Hero - Modify Intelligence of MyHero: Add X
Wait X seconds
Hero - Modify Intelligence of MyHero: Subtract X

See... X will be 15/20/25, according to the level. Tricky, heh?

 

[PurplePoot]

Triggering unit

if you use myHero everywhere else, use myHero here


and its great to c u back again, pask!

 

[Mocreiazul]

thx guys and even if i put more levels to an ability this trigger will still work ?

ohh and one more thing .. when i put a special effect on it it stays for a while then dissapear before the effect of the ability ends .. how do i extend the times the s effect is shown ?

 

[PurplePoot]

play the effect more than once? its the anim thats ending.

 

[Mocreiazul]

paskovich i cant find the action you indicated ...

this " set X " is a variable right ?? if it is .. of which type is it ?

and i cant find the action level of Divine Intelligence for Triggering Unit

 

[paskovich]

X is an integer (a number without decimals). Level of an ability for unit is an Integer Comparison.

PS: It is not necessary to name it 'X', you can name it what you like...[/quote]

 

[Mocreiazul]

ahh i cant do it !!!!!
where is the damn Level of Divine Intelligence for unit !?!??!?!

It looks like this is a GUI trigger you're making, so you want to do the following steps:

1) Add a new action "Set Variable"
2) Click "variable" and pick an integer variable
3) Click on "value"
4) Select "Arithmetic"
5) Click on "value" for the Arithmetic function and type in 10. Then press ok.
6) Click on "1" and select Arithmetic again
7) Click on "value" and select "Unit - Level of Ability For Unit"
8) Click on "ability" and select your Divine Intelligence ability. Then click ok (triggering unit is already picked)
9) Click on "+" and change it to "x". Click ok.
10) Click on "1" and type in the value 5.
11) Press ok about 3 or 4 times, until you get back to the trigger window.

That should do it for the step that's confusing you. I know I probably went more in depth than you needed, but oh well. You shouldn't have any problems with these steps at least.

 

[Mocreiazul]

wtf ? that function doesnt appear in here !!!

something's wrong with my we ..... well thx anyway ill reinstall it ...

i guess if install everything correctly this will work

 

[PurplePoot]

only prob i can think of is that you would be using an old patch, but then again, i think that func has been in the WE since the start.
