Hook like spell

[sarumanthecursed]

Hey I need a hook like spell similar to Pudge's except I want it to only hook the desired target and not the first unit it encounters, plus a minimum firing range would be nice too. (I know i'm asking much but I got to try )

You can modify one of the many hook spells in the spell section. If you're requesting one then wrong forum.

Post what you've got and people can help.

Now, currently it hooks the first target it encounter but, I want it to only hook the intended target. Any help would be greatly appreciated >

You would probably have to save the 'target unit of ability cast' or whatever it's called into a variable and then simply check if the hook ever comes into contact with the target as it extends. It's somewhat difficult to read your triggers without the indentations but under the "Hooking enemy unit" comment in the second trigger, you would replace the condition of the If-Then-Else statement with a new one checking if the target unit is in range of the hook.

This won't completely solve your problem as you would still need to find a way to make this MUI but it's a start.

          • Else - Actions

 

[Dehua_Darbuya]

So I know this is late but I thought I'd better not leave this open ended.

I edited the triggers (changes in bold) which should make it so that only the target unit of the hook is a valid target. I'm not sure about the indexing of the target unit but I assume it could be set up the same way as the triggering unit. Also I changed the periodic timeout from 0.02 to 0.03 as anything less than that is redundant.

You have to change the condition to check for UNIT, that would be as simple as that.

 

[Dehua_Darbuya]

You'd think so but you still need those checks to make sure the unit is alive and such when the hook reaches it. Which reminds me...

@sarumanthecursed I didn't explicitly say this in my previous posts but you need to change the ability of your hook to one that has unit targeting otherwise this won't.

Yeah I figured that, and thanks again!
