How do you launch a spell at a different angle?

[X-Death]

Spells (abilities) typically shoot straight down from the sky. How do you make abilities shoot down from a different angle (Lvl 6 Dreadlord's ability is example of this)?

 

[Chaosy]

I think its hardcoded but I am not sure.

Trigger it yourself.

 

[X-Death]

Trigger it yourself.

How do you do it with triggers? To make the spell come down on an angle instead of straight down?

Create a new custom spell, that's what he meant.

The Inferno spell's effect is a model with the animation of going downwards from the sky.
One way of getting your spell to come from the sky would be to create a flying dummy unit with a say 500 flying height then tell that unit to cast the spell.

I'm gonna try making a spell like this

 

[Meticulous]

You can do a sideways inferno by basing a dummy unit on the inferno effect model and setting its Art - Maximum Roll Angle to -90

Spells don't launch anywhere... projectiles do... it will really depend on which ability you want to... but if you want full control, using a custom projectile script is the one to go...

in the meantime i got into the parabola formulas and using them in the triggers isnt easy as i thought it would be like but in a few days i'll solve everything. I mean it's very fun to experiment while trying to get to some point sorry if i sound too excited like a child
