Omni Slash help plz

[thrakath]

Im trying to make a spell similair to the omnislash from dota, both spells that are similar on this site: Omnishlag and blade dance only attack 1 unit and have far to much coding in it for me to work with. If someone could give me a few tips or make a simple test map with the basics in it i would appriciate it. If you are not familiar with the dota spell i am refering to heres a description : blinks around battlefield slashes random units in area of targeted unit (x) times for (y) damage. while omnislashing your unit becomes invulnerable and 50% transparent.

this is quite simple, now there are two ways, a loop and just the same action repeated
basically the first thing moves you to the target and plays the attack animation, then it picks one unit within range and moves and damages,this just continues until the max number of hits has been reached

This has already been requested soo much... I also think there is an omnislash posted into the spells section. Search for it and you may find it. If not, check older threads which refer to the same spell.

Unit Group - Add all units of (Units within 512.00 of (Target point of ability being cast)) to bladeweavetarget
Animation - Change (Triggering unit)'s vertex coloring to (100.00%, 100.00%, 100.00%) with 50.00% transparency
Unit - Make (Triggering unit) Invulnerable
Wait 0.50 game-time seconds
For each (Integer BladeDanceHitAmount) from 5 to 6, do (Actions)
Loop - Actions

Animation - Play (Triggering unit)'s attack,slam animation
Unit - Order (Triggering unit) to damage (Target unit of ability being cast) for (Max(((Percentage life of (Target unit of ability being cast)) x 25.00), ((Percentage life of (Target unit of ability being cast)) x 30.00))) using attack type Chaos and damage type Universal.

Unit - Make (Triggering unit) Vulnerable

The only thing that happens when i use the skil is that my hero becomes invulnerable and 50% transparent, then he teleports to the middle of the map and nothing else happens.. any ideas why this is happening?

I don't think they've ever made one and posted it that actually was dependant on the actual amount of damage done by the hero at the current time of catsing (as in delaing the exact range in damage the hero would normally deal. The reason this would be nice is you could weave a crit strike in the spell for higher chances of effectiveness.

Yhis is not exacly Omnislash, cos oryginal deal allways 150 - 250 phisycal damage, but it's ok tooo.

One major problem i have found with all these omnislash like skills is that it will also teleport to your allies, now i have tried on numerous occasions to fix these but have no god damn clue how to, so please could an expert programmer on this site please post a proper Omni slash like skill so people could download it, thanks

 

[fl3h]

message me on aim, ill give you omnislash. =) im not screwing around, ill help you import it into your map and all.

 

[Chuckle Brother]

To keep it from picking allies make it do soemthing like this

Pick overy units in Random 1 units in 500 range of Casting unit matching condition Boolean Comparison(owner of unit is an enemy of Owner of Casting unit)

The comparison will ensure that only enemy units are attacked
