NEEDS FIX

The spell won't work correctly if more than one unit cast it at the same time There are lots of leaks, which is not acceptable Things that leak Hashtables and MUI Dynamic indexing Spell Submission Rules

i really don't see the bad thing about waits

 

[Tank-Commander]

Waits are bad for spells before they're -very- inconsistent, an alternative is here http://www.hiveworkshop.com/forums/...279/mui-spells-using-artificial-waits-223315/ to get that delay you want with it always being consistent

Needs an ingame screenshot for a spell
Your loop trigger should run every 0.03 seconds as well, 0.01 is just too fast
I also get the feeling that this isn't MUI

thx for the link
if you read the description: my screenshots don't save for a reason i don't know and i specified that the spell is not MUI

 

[GreeN!X]

I recall that submitted spells MUST be MUI in order to be approved..

Read the link tank-commader gave..

and BTW, I think it would be better if you do not use custom models in spells so that the size will not be big..

 

[Almia]

I have already given you tutorials to make your spell MUI :/
It seems that you ignore me then.

v

you wanna know ?
Do you really wanna know ?
Are you prepare ?

Okay, put 2 faceless void in that map and order them to cast any same ability at the same time (like if you order unit a cast time warp, order unit b to cast time warp too), the last cast would bug out.
What kind of bug ?
You will find out.

Mui stands for multi-unit instanceability, it's a property for a trigger that is able to support certain spells/systems for more than 1 unit casting it at a time.
Now your spell will bug if there's more than 1 unit cast this spell at a time.

And yes, all your spells are not mui.

lol i again got insulted, my sistem even if it is bad is much more usefull and better then this, i wont say a word anymore untill u learn what is mui

EDIT: When time comes u will see how bad things you were making

 

[T. D. W.]

ok just had the idea of MUI and modifying the spell

 

[shadowvzs]

oh sorry i was too busy when you gave me the link and i forgot then

MUI = multiple unit instance if i am right, and its mean more unit can cast the spell without problem (same time), if something not mui then if 2 unit on map cast it in same time then 2nd caster screw up/make bad the spell what dont work well after 2nd cast

so overall, the uploaded spell must be mui, so its must work well if more unit cast it same time

about leak that also must fix else its cause laggy game what also bad thing :/

 

[T. D. W.]

ok so the idea of mui i had was right the spell update should take an hour

• Lightning Field Unit Move
• Events
• Conditions
• Actions
  • For each (Integer x) from 1 to 5, do (Actions)
    • Loop - Actions
      • Set temp_location = (Lightning_Field_Target offset by 500.00 towards ((360.00 / 5.00) x (Real(x))) degrees)
      • Unit - Order Lightning_Field_dummy[(x + 1)] to Move To temp_location
      • Set Lightning_Field_Angle[x] = ((360.00 / 5.00) x (Real(x)))
      • Custom script: call RemoveLocation(udg_temp_location)
  • Animation - Change Lightning_Field_dummy[7] flying height to 600.00 at 600.00
  • Wait 1.00 seconds
  • Trigger - Run Lightning Field Lightnings <gen> (ignoring conditions)

Well, the custom script should be before the wait action, else if you leave it as it is now, the dummy will move to the center of the map, (temp_location is removed after the first dummy goes to the location.)

 

[T. D. W.]

Triggering unit will only be overwritten if you cast the spell another time. So if you cast it again on another unit, the triggering unit and the variable will change.

i made two units that have this spell, they caste it at the same time
it worked perfectly until it reashed the second trigger

wich means don't focus about the first trigger focus on the second

 

[Wrda]

Why you are using: Hashtable - Save something as 1/2/3/4/5/6/7/8/9 of Hashtable_Value in Hashtable?
You don't need to save it like that, you could just save it as 0, but you made an effort to make this spell MUI, so let it be like it is.

This is absolutly good BUT you should REALLY remove all of those waits, the wait action is terribly known for its bugs for not being very accurate and by that cause skips and order failure of actions / triggers. Instead, you should aim for using Hashtables that handle the caster, holding all the lightning effects and the dummies as a saved data inside the Hash, and really avoid using any wait at all. As the spell is right now, I belive it can handle only one single caster and is using a known for its bugged action. Fix those and you get +1. The spell looks awesome visually and it does't look like its creating needless points without removing them.
I give it 4/5 and recommand it for use of maps who don't need more than a single caster for this ability.
