[Trigger] Judgement (Spell)

[TheAncient]

The spell i am designing is in 2 parts.
1. Building up charges.
2. unleashing charges.

1. The building up charges is supposed to be that when you cast an ability (with no target. like animate dead) it builds up 1 charge. animations and stuff appear on his weapon. Also, the strength of the unleashed charges is based on his stats when he last used his "build up charge" ability.

2. when he attacks and contains charges, he unleashes one charge per attack. It damages the unit he attacks, and all enemies for a small distance for damage based on his strength and intelligence from when he last built up a charge. (as i mentioned) while at the same time healing himself and allies around him for a small distance based on his intelligence from when he last built up a charge.

also, once he runs out of charges the animations on his weapon should disappear.

___________________________________

now... unfortuntaely it doesnt work. I am not sure why.

Here are the two triggers.

• Marshal Charge
  • Events

also, what "origin" do i type in if i want the special effect to be on the paladins hammer? cuz i am not sure what its called.

 

[mckill2009]

in my map Smells Like Dota, I have a hero there called the Dark Knight and he has a spell called Sudden Blow and Charged Bolt, see it that's similar of what you want...

also, you use "Selection - Select..." which is suppose to be a unit group, not select..., 'triggering' should be 'matching'...

 

[TheAncient]

oh yes. thanks.

but when i click "enable" the map disappears when i try and test it.

see attachment.

 

[mckill2009]

you mean it's not showing up?, if so, reduce it's filename...

 

[TheAncient]

when the second trigger is enabled i cannot see the map.
when the second trigger is not enabled i can see the map.

unless the trigger can create 5-7mb of memory on its own, it shouldnt be a problem.

 

[Jay the Editor]

How about try to click the "Test Map" (Ctrl + F9)? Or maybe try switch your version of your Warcraft to the newer version or older version using WVS (Warcraft Version Switcher)

out of topic

I just want to comment some in the trigger.
During charge,
Use A unit starts the effect of an ability instead of begins casting an ability.
When being attack after charged,
I suggest you to use custom script "set bj_wantDestroyGroup" instead of select it as mckill2009 commented.

Besides, don't use index unless it's necessary. Separate it to 2 different variables instead.

Have you stored anything in this variable yet?

• Special Effect - Destroy Judgement_specialE

Remove

• Do nothing

Just let it nothing there, it's similar to do nothing.

 

[TheAncient]

pardon my ignorence, but i have never used custom script outside of the call destroyblahblah_(udg_bvlahblah). Do i simply type that script in or do i have to modify things to adapt it to what the trigger requires?

also, whats indexing?

and yes i did store something in the vairable.... NO wait. no i didnt. my bad, i thought i did.

 

[mckill2009]

that's not possible coz many people are testing it...what version are you using?...

indexing and hashtables can make your spells/triggers awesome, because it can make your spells MUI...MUI spells can be casted by different units at the same time without interrupting each other, so you should learn them...but I suggest you to learn vjass immediately, since GUI has limitations and vjass can make your map 1000% better...

 

[TheAncient]

Yes i am attempting to learn vjass. But.. ye. I have a very very difficult time with languages of any kind.

 

[Jay the Editor]

To TheAncient:

destroy group functions

The custom script "set bj_wantDestroyGroup = true" will help you to remove the group after you use it. You just need to put this trigger script above a trigger that you used to pick unit.
For example,

• Custom script: set bj_wantDestroupGroup = true
• Unit Group - Pick every unit in (Units within 250.00 of casterpoint matching (((Matching unit) is alive) Equal to True)) and do (Actions)
  • Loop - Actions
    • Unit - Cause (Triggering unit) to damage (Attacking unit), dealing 500.00 damage of attack type Spells and damage type Normal

In this above trigger, you don't need to create a unit group and store it into variable. You just need to pick it and continue with your action. It will automatically remove it after using.

variables with array

Indexing is making the variable to variable with array. By making it to array, it have a lot of functions especially in making it to MUI (Multi unit instanceable) but it cannot be simply use because of ... <Sorry, I forgot the reason > (Ask Bribe). Anyway, just try not to use array. You should change this

• Set Judgement_stat_int[1] = (Strength of Judgement_caster (Include bonuses))
• Set Judgement_stat_int[2] = (Intelligence of Judgement_caster (Include bonuses))

to

• Set Judgement_stat_strength = (Strength of Judgement_caster (Include bonuses))
• Set Judgement_stat_intelligence = (Intelligence of Judgement_caster (Include bonuses))

Use different variables instead of using only 1 variable but with array unless you're going to make it MUI (Multi unit instanceable)

I suggest you to learn vjass immediately too. It's efficient and great! I currently trying to learn it too ><

This is the updated version. unfortuntaly the same problem occurs. i cannot see the map when i try to test it in any form. singleplayer, test-map, or multiplayer.

when this one trigger is offline, everything works fine.

[Jay the Editor]

I've done with your spell but not MUI because it seems that you haven't learn MUI yet so I afraid you won't understand which make it hard to adjust anything.
Thus, I made it in a simple trigger.
Anyway, I've tried it and it works perfectly (only for a single caster of course) on my Warcraft III version 1.26 but if you still unable to see the map, then I can't help anymore

your spell

First of all, you need to make 2 abilities.
One is for the Judgment spell which is based of an instant spell and the other one is based of "Sphere" ability which it act as an attachments/special effects for the unit. In the sphere spell, adjust the "Art - Target" and "Art - Target attachment points" to the special effects that you want.

Store energy to the hand of the caster. Whenever the caster attack, it damages all nearby enemies based on his Strength and heals all nearby allies based on his Intelligence.
Damage to the target: Strength of the caster
Damage to nearby enemies: Strength of the caster divided by 2
Heal amount to nearby allies: Intelligence of the caster divided by 2

[TheAncient]

I have never intended for it to be MUI really since it is for a specific hero.
but thanks a lot, ill see how your version works when i have time to work on it again.

 

[Jay the Editor]

Tell me whether if it's work. =)

 

[TheAncient]

Ok, the one thing i cannot find in all of that is "add attachment to j_caster". ive looked all over the gui area, and i cant find it anywhere.

Also, wouldn't it leak if the Unit-Group loops cause a large number of points without each loop ending in a RemoveLocation?

so this is the latest update. all that is missing is the attachment thing u mentioned.

Ok, the one thing i cannot find in all of that is "add attachment to j_caster". ive looked all over the gui area, and i cant find it anywhere.

Well, of course you can't find it. "attachment" is an ability based on a "sphere" ability. This ability act as the special effects when you still have the charges. As you can see in my trigger that I do remove the ability once it reach 0 which means it remove the special effect when the charges reach 0.

Also, wouldn't it leak if the Unit-Group loops cause a large number of points without each loop ending in a RemoveLocation?

It won't. You picked only once and the 1 point refers to each and every points of the units. If you're going to pick it many times like using "every 0.03 seconds" to pick it. Then you need to remove it once after you picked it else you can remove it at the end of trigger.
For example,

trigger

• Unit Group - Pick every unit in (Units within 250.00 of Judgement_Caster_point matching ((((Matching unit) is alive) Equal to True) and (((Matching unit) belongs to an ally of (Owner of (Attacking unit))) Equal to True))) and do (Actions)
  • Loop - Actions
  • Set judgement_aoepoint_ally = (Position of (Picked unit))
  • Unit - Set life of (Picked unit) to ((Life of (Picked unit)) + Judgement_stats_intell)
  • Special Effect - Create a special effect at judgement_aoepoint_ally using Abilities\Spells\Human\Heal\HealTarget.mdl
  • Special Effect - Destroy (Last created special effect)
• Custom script: Call RemoveLocation(udg_judgement_aoepoint_ally)

If it still can't works, then I guess I try to send my file to you. If you still can't see it then I have no choice. You gotta try download this http://www.dota-utilities.com/2009/09/warcraft-patch-version-switcher-120-121.html Try changing the version of you Warcraft III and give it a try. =)

[EDIT]: File sent to you through pastebin =)

 

[TheAncient]

still cant see it.
do u have skype? I am getting tired of this trigger and want to sit down with u and get it done!

 

[Jay the Editor]

Sorry I don't have.. How about MSN?

still can't see it.

You mean you can't the map? or you can't get what I meant?

erm... Go to Object Editor ---> Abilities ---> Create custom ability
Search for an ability called "sphere" in Units category
Create the ability and name what you like.
In the trigger, i named it "attachment" so that you know that that's a special effect for the hero.

create special effect

• If (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions)
• If - Conditions
  • J_cast Equal to False
• Then - Actions
  • Set J_cast = True
  • Unit - Add attachment to J_caster
  • Trigger - Turn on release charge <gen>
• Else - Actions

In the above trigger, I check whether the hero still have charges. "false" means the hero still don't have any charges. When the hero cast the ability and got charge(s), I set it to "true" and add the ability called "attachment".

end trigger

• If (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions)
• If - Conditions
  • J_store Equal to 0
• Then - Actions
  • Set J_cast = False
  • Unit - Remove attachment from (Attacking unit)
  • Trigger - Turn off (This trigger)
• Else - Actions

In this trigger, when there are no charges left, I set it to "false" which means the hero don't have any charge left. Then, I remove the "attachment" ability and lastly, I turn off the trigger (triggers are recommended to turn off when not in use).

the map isnt seen. thanks for the sphere thing cuz ive never messed with sphere before, i always believed it to be useless.

im gonna try working off your trigger map now.

msn works. i use Yim so it should work.

just use the email i sent ya.

and i imported your version and started changing variables to what i already have, ill disasble my versions and see if yours work. although honestly i dont see any real difference.

after test: ok. i found that your version allows me to see the map. (i know cuz i disabled all triggers but yours.)
but for some reason it doesnt heal allys or damage enemies other than the primary target. o.0 at least not that ive noticed. ill make the animations larger cuz i might not be seeing the stat change properly among the battle.

Don't double post =) The "Edit" button at the right bottom is there for reason.

Hmm... weird. I've tested it before I uploaded and it worked for me. But I guess you can solve it by yourself, d'you? It's just only a minor problem. Maybe you didn't change something in the checking when picking up the units. If can't then PM me =)
