[Trigger] hero death

[Garra]

when a hero dies how do i make it where it dosent have that pic in the corner

 

[Eleandor]

remove the entire unit from the game. I do think the icon only disappears when a 2nd hero dies after removing the first one.

Unit - Remove Unit.

That's what you want. The unit you remove is the dying unit. (Use Triggering Unit, since the event should be "A Unit Dies")

 

[Garra]

ok thanks is there any way to remove the pic and still have the hero revivable

 

[darkwulfv]

No, I don't believe so. Removing the unit is permanent and will remove the hero from the game entirely, icon and all.

well, you could save the unit into a game cache (i think it will work) and reload it again when you need it.
If you need help with game cache, then i can help.

 

[darkwulfv]

That's slow, inefficient, and risky. And I don't think it'd work.

whoa! didn't think about that ^^ it helps me with stuff in my base map. (just hope i'll remember it >.<) +rep

one question, why do you need the remove the icon?

 

[Pyritie]

I'm guessing it's because a lot of heroes are going to be spawned.

 

[Garra]

yea kinda i made a map where i have an ability that creates clones of my hero but i dont want to use mirror image so i need to remove there pic when there timer runs out but not removing my hero when he dies

 

[Pyritie]

But can't you just use "Unit - Remove unit" when the images die?

 

[Garra]

its not a image its creating a copy of my unit so i dont no how i could remove it with out removing all dying units

 

[Pyritie]

So basically, when you cast the spell it creates a bunch of cloned heroes? That's easy, just do this.

Make two Unit variables: Cloner and Clone.

[trigger="When the spell is cast"]Events
Unit - A unit starts the effect of an ability
Conditions
Ability being cast is Equal to YourSpell
Actions
Set Cloner = (Casting Unit)[/trigger]

[trigger="When a hero dies"]Events
Unit - A unit dies
Conditions
(Unit type of (Dying unit)) is Equal to YourHero/CloneType
(Dying unit) is Not Equal to Cloner
Actions
Custom script: local unit udg_Clone = GetTriggerUnit()
-------- That "udg_" part means it's a global variable --------
Wait 6.00 seconds
Unit - Remove Clone from the game[/trigger]

that will leek if for than 1 unit casts the ability and how do u make a pic like this

 

[Pyritie]

Oh so you want it to be multi-instantable?

And it's just

• tags.

 

[Garra]

yea and how do u put it in the chat
and i fuigered it out
i think this will work
e-unit cast spell
c-spell = clone
a-creat unit x
-set special number of last cerated unit to 1


e-unit dies
c-special number of dying unit iis = to 1
a-remove dying unit

 

[Pyritie]

Vb codes don't work in the chat.

 

[humpadumpa]

i could make it MUI if it's only one clone per player is it?

 

[Garra]

no ti is not only 1 clone

 

[Sephiroth74]

Would mirror image work if you just remove the timer on the clones, and set their damage done/damage taken to 100%?

Or do you want to keep it off mirror image to avoid the blue color?

 

[Garra]

i dont need the blueness
