[Trigger] Jungle creep -> giving a buf/ability

[Plunders]

I made a jungle-creep, and when i kill it, it's supposed to give me an ability (lifesteal for 60 seconds).

The trigger i tried is:

• ---Event---
• Unit - Dragon 0031 <gen> Dies
• ---Conditions---
• ---Actions---
• Wait 0.50 seconds
• Unit - Add Life Steal to (Killing unit)
• Wait 60.00 seconds
• Unit - Remove Life Steal from (Killing unit)

I don't recieve the ability, and afaik. <triggering unit> is no good here, since that would the the dying unit...

Thanks in advance
Truly yours

i think there is a timed ability system in the spell data base

Store Killing Unit into the variable and the problem is not MUI. Anyway you can use the Timed Ability System that hodenhelm said, because it is MUI tho.

Thank you for a quick response, hoever:

- I use gui triggers and such, and have no knowledge about Jass.

Do you have a link to a gui system like this? wouldn't know how to adjust that lump of text.

Use my system instead, Temporary Ability System, it's in my signature.

Well, it looks very messy imo, but i'll give it a try it out for sure.

might contact you again it the system bugs or puzzles me

It is requiring a function calls not JASS, but anyway it is the part of JASS xD. You can use that system in Custom Script In GUI not JASS.

 

[Rheiko]

still, it's complicated if you don't know anything about Jass

Define, messy.

You can use a local unit:

Trigger

• Trigger
  • Events
    • Unit - Dragon dies
  • Conditions
  • Actionens
    • Custom script: local unit u
    • Custom script: set u = GetKillingUnit()
    • Unit - Add (YourAbility) to (Triggering unit)
    • Wait 60.00 seconds
    • Custom script: set udg_Unit = u
    • Unit - Remove (YourAbility) from Unit

You need to create a variable named "Unit" of type unit for this.

No that doesn't work IcemanBo and leaks.

 

[Rheiko]

why not?

 

[IcemanBo]

No that doesn't work IcemanBo and leaks.

Same as Rheiko, yes why not?

Edit:
okay leak, set u=null after all...

 

[pOke]

Shouldnt you be adding the ability to u ?
Leaks? Sure u to null. Nothing else

 

[Rheiko]

this

Trigger

• Trigger
  • Events
    • Unit - A unit dies
  • Conditions
  • Actionens
    • Custom script: local unit u
    • Custom script: set u = GetKillingUnit()
    • Custom script: set udg_Unit = u
    • Unit - Add (YourAbility) to Unit
    • Wait 60.00 seconds
    • Unit - Remove (YourAbility) from Unit

and how to null it?

 

[IcemanBo]

Shouldnt you be adding the ability to u ?
Leaks? Sure u to null. Nothing else

Ah yes, add ability to (killing unit) ofc, thx.

Define, messy.

Know that i say this as a suggestion for noobs like myself to keep up

All the way through the trigger, there's not a single text string explaining what the next line does, or what not to touch.

This is important especially on interger functions because, a noob like myself doesn't find the same thing logical like you

It's not critisism, it's a friendly remark that I (the individual in this example) can't figure out what the system does or how to apply it to anything dying, or any other event for that matter.

Btw, unit variables do not leak values.
They might leak references, but that is rarely a problem.
