Multiple projectiles for a spell

[johannesr]

How can i make a spell with level 1 its red lightning for lvl 2 its green lightning etc?

What kind of spell?

You'd have to make seperate abilities with each one having its own different lightning, I'm afraid. Then use triggers to detect it and stuff.

use your spell with no projectile(or a really small one) and do a trigger like this:

• Events
  • Unit - A unit begins casting an ability
• Conditions
  • (Ability being cast) Equal to SPELL
• Actions
  • Set Caster = (Casting unit)
  • Set Target = (Target of ability being cast)
  • If (All conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions)
    • If - Conditions
      • (Level of SPELL for Caster) Equal to 1
    • Then - Actions
      • Lightning - Create a Lightning Effect lightning effect from source (Position of Caster) to target (Position of Target)
      • Lightning - Change color of (Last created lightning effect) to (Color Numbers go Here) with NUMBER alpha)
      • Set Lightning = (Last created lightning effect)
      • Wait (number) game-time seconds
      • Lightning - Remove Lightning

the color numbers are Red, Blue, Green, and the alpha is for how visible the lightning should be, 1 being 100% and 0 being invisible

so red is 1, blue is 2 etc?
