PerditionsEdge Lightning Spells V2.3

Approved.
The spells are quite simple and spam effects. No leaks and spells are MUI.
You could share the variables between spells.
You could hide the floating text for players that can't see the caster.
Remove the useless 0 from the equation the Exterme Voltage.

 

[Maker]

No leaks, MUI, good tooltips.

Some problems with spells:
The caster doesn't get the credit from the kill.
While the effects are good, there's maybe too much of them.
In my opinion, you could use shared variables. For example, don't use different caster variable for each spell. You can use the same for all.
Dummies give vision.
All the spells are not easily configurable. For example, if I change how many times the loops run, then the calculations inside the loops won't work correctly. The amount of dummies created (how many times it loops) should be set into a variable.

Plasma Storm comments

Useless variable, you might as well use the point array.

• Set Plasma_Storm_Loop_Location = ...

Another useless variable:

• Set Plasma_Storm_Target = (Position of (Triggering unit))

you have already stored this:

• Set Plasma_Storm_Point[0] = (Position of Plasma_Storm_Caster)

Overall quite good.

Thank you for the advice, I'll see what I can do.

 

[Magtheridon96]

Please, next time post the triggers.

I love your spells The effects are awesome

I can see they're MUI, and i can't seem to find any leaks,
but you might wanna listen to Maker and fix those problems.

Btw, you called it version 2.1, yet this is the first release.
Desperate much? jk

+rep

 

[PerditionsEdge]

Desperate? Lol you could say that.

Thank you for the comment. Was just playing around with triggers and decided to make a spellpack, so feel free to use it or edit it.

In the meantime, I'll see what I can do to fix the problems

Spells look great! Creative enough! And i haven't seen lately lightning spells...
Okay now lets see what could be improved:
-in some triggers you add to a dummy Generic expiration timer to big, you only need 0.50, it's the best one;
-sounds leak, you need to remove them after creating;
-floating text leaks, destroy it too;
-in

here

• Set Extreme_Voltage_Loop_Loc = (Extreme_Voltage_Location offset by (0.00 + (10.00 x 3.00)) towards (100.00 x (Real((Integer B)))) degrees)

you use 0.00 + (10.00 x 3.00), no need for that 0.00.
Other thing look fine, spell is creative as i already told.

5/5 vote for approval!

And +rep for stimulation

Just for info, use custom integer don't use A or B please cause it can come to big troubles. Stanley, about that 0.00 + 10.00 x 3, i think that he was doing something with that 0.00, then just saw that it doesn't fits, he became bored to do it again. Samething happens to me always. Gj!

Very nice abilities. It provides a neat effect with relatively little triggering, yet the triggering is very effective.

Oh, and please post the triggers in the description.

What could make the Plasma Storm lagg?
Its not the amount of "Dummy - Plasma" units made, but my map got a lot of doodads, could it be something affecting the terrain like "War Stomp" does? War Stomp lagg like hell when your map got a lot of doodads cus of its ability to do Terrain Deformation, but I cant see anything like that in the Plasma Storm ability..

And you forgot to set the level of the dummy ability to the level of the caster's ability, the ability is dealing the same amount of damage on every level

• -------- ----------- --------
  • Unit - Create 1 Dummy for Plasma_Storm_Owner at Plasma_Storm_Point[0] facing Plasma_Storm_Point[0]
  • Unit - Add Plasma Storm (Dummy) to (Last created unit)
  • Unit - Order (Last created unit) to Human Blood Mage - Flame Strike Plasma_Storm_Point[0]
  • Unit - Add a 1.00 second Generic expiration timer to (Last created unit)
  • -------- ----------- --------
  • -------- Removing leaks --------
  • -------- ----------- --------
  • Custom script: call RemoveLocation(udg_Plasma_Storm_Point[0])
