How to "upgrade" an unit using spells! GUI based

[megmaconqueror]

Very simple to do. First create a custom spell from "channel" and name it what ever you want.

Next you will want to change this line.
Data - Options None"
To "Data - Options Visible"

Now change what ever else is needed, such as if it's a hero ability, item, or unit.

After you are done, open up the trigger editor.

Create a new trigger, and build it out something like this.

• Untitled Trigger 001
  • Events
    • Unit - A unit Begins casting an ability
  • Conditions
  • Actions
    • If (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions)
      • If - Conditions
        • (Ability being cast) Equal to Change Unit
      • Then - Actions
        • Unit - Pause (Triggering unit)
        • Wait 2.00 seconds
        • Unit - Replace (Triggering unit) with a Archmage using The new unit's max
      • Else - Actions

Now when ever a unit uses the "Change Unit" ability, they will change into an archmage after two seconds. You can change this how ever you like. You can add another You can add more If/Then/Else to increase the requirements.


Note: This is for andreas_asp on warcraft III frozen throne on useast!!

This is neither help or requesting. This is proof of concept to someone who thinks he knows the ins and outs of the world editor. He states that you cannot "upgrade" a unit by using a spell.

Maybe you should take it up with the person in question instead of posting it here.

Also, your method is inefficient.

You have explained what I was trying to write, well, this thread starter is happy enough, I'm happy too.

begins casting is bad
pausing a unit is bad

but seriously if this was just to prove that fact to that andreas someone, you should have just sent it to him rather than posting it here...

 

[defskull]

Well I'm sure that this "andreas" has (0.25 * megmaconqueror's knowledge on Trigger Editor) knowledge on Trigger Editor.

 

[megmaconqueror]

Look, I know that those two are bad. And I know that the GUI is bad in general. But the idiot andreas_asp doesn't know anything but GUI. So I gave him something in GUI. Also if I could give it to him I would have, but not only is he stupid when it comes to the world editor, he's also stubborn. And won't take the proof of concept map.

He did state that he comes on here for help with his map. But since I couldn't find him, or anything about his map. I just made a post with what he was having problems with.

Before any of you continue to make posts about how worthless this code is. I already know, and no I'm not some noob to VJass or regular Jass. So shut up, and leave the thread.

Oh my eyes! I don't know how to work with conditions

 

[Adiktuz]

You posted it on a public thread so you better have expected people will be criticizing it...

anyway, there's no point in this thread anymore... its not a tutorial, its not a request, its just something that was supposed to be for a single user... though the likelihood of that user seeing this is low as you don't know each other...

I hear people invented private messaging...
*trolling*

 

[Adiktuz]

he said he can't find the user here so that would probably mean he don't know that user's hive username...

That sounds like looking for a person named Mary in a public bar, so instead of asking who's Mary you start to shout what you would say to Mary and everyone can hear you. Courage+ for you, but quite dumb.

In either way, he can't expect not to be trolled, criticized for it.
