This trigger is not compatible with TwistedMeadows_S2_v1.1Here's a basic system for destroying effects after a delay (see my 1st post):
[Solved] - Does this Special Effect leak?
Hi. I hope this question belongs here. Well, I essentially just wanted to know if the FX on the following trigger leaks or not. Hammer of The Lightbringer Events Game - DamageModifierEvent becomes Less than or equal to 1.00 Conditions (Level of Hammer of The...
Here's an advanced system that will be more precise:

How To Post Your Trigger
TopHow To Post Your Triggers I've seen many and many members around the site who need help with their triggers but don't know how to post their triggers in a thread, especially the newcomers. Posting your triggers in a thread is a very important matter when you're asking for a help from other...
The original TwistedMeadows_S2_v1.1 map doesn't seem to support JassHelper, so you'll probably have to write a trigger without a custom script.
That means your map is on the newer Lua scripting mode, which means you can do something even better:
Delayed Destroy Effect

Custom script: local sfx = GetLastCreatedEffectBJ()
Custom script: local t = CreateTimer()
Custom script: TimerStart(t, udg_DDE_Delay, false, function()

Custom script: DestroyTimer(t)
Custom script: end)
Where is Wait DDE_Delay seconds?That means your map is on the newer Lua scripting mode, which means you can do something even better:
Lua uses different syntax than Jass, but it's basically the same thing as you can see.
Custom script: TimerStart(t, udg_DDE_Delay, false, function()

Trigger - Run Delayed Destroy Effect <gen> (ignoring conditions)
I have one more question. Please tell me a trigger that will keep the effect for the duration (12 seconds) even if it is released from polymorph or hex (if it is released from resistance skin or dispel).The Wait is no longer needed and DDE_Delay is being used as the duration of a Timer:
All you need to do is edit that Delayed Destroy Effect trigger to look like the one I posted above.
Everything else remains the same:
I'm not sure I understand. The Special Effects created with triggers will last until you Destroy them.

If you are released from Polymorph or Hex (within 12 seconds), the buff will remain, but the effect will disappear. What I want is for the effect to remain for the duration (12 seconds) even if it is released. If I understand what you mean, is it okay to use that trigger?I'm not sure I understand. The Special Effects created with triggers will last until you Destroy them.
Are you saying that Polymorph/Hex causes the Special Effect to disappear? If that's the case, you may want to rely on a hidden Ability to display the Art instead.
Something like this could work:
This will Add the ability to your Unit, then after DDE_Delay seconds it will Remove the ability from the Unit.
You should be able to use that trigger, assuming that Abilities reapply their Art after Hex wears off.
I'm getting this trigger error. It looks like I'll have to apply it to the newer Lua scripting mode.I'm not sure I understand. The Special Effects created with triggers will last until you Destroy them.

Try this map out, I think the Custom Script was bad.
The latest version of the map is essential, so do you know how to create a trigger without a custom script?
--in a blank Lua trigger or map's custom script header:
function DelayedDestroyEffect(fx, duration)
local t = CreateTimer()
TimerStart(t, duration, false, function()
DestroyEffect(fx)
DestroyTimer(t)
end)
end
function DelayedRemoveAbility(unit, abil, duration)
local t = CreateTimer()
if (abil ~= nil) then
UnitAddAbility(unit, abil)
end
TimerStart(t, duration, false, function()
UnitRemoveAbility(unit, abil)
DestroyTimer(t)
end)
endThe effect should not be visible when polymorphed or hexed. When released, the effect should be visible again for the remaining duration.Lua:--in a blank Lua trigger or map's custom script header: function DelayedDestroyEffect(fx, duration) local t = CreateTimer() TimerStart(t, duration, false, function() DestroyEffect(fx) DestroyTimer(t) end) end function DelayedRemoveAbility(unit, abil, duration) local t = CreateTimer() if (abil ~= nil) then UnitAddAbility(unit, abil) end TimerStart(t, duration, false, function() UnitRemoveAbility(unit, abil) DestroyTimer(t) end) end
We understand. Pyro just posted everything that was in the map I attached.
I am always on the latest version and the map I attached works without issues. Custom Script works on every version of Warcraft 3.
It worked fine, but the problem is that the effect appears even when in polymorph or hex.
Oh, that's what you don't want to happen. Thought it was the other way around.
function DelayedDestroyEffectSpecial(u, model, attach, duration)
local sfx = AddSpecialEffectTarget(model, u, attach)
local isHidden = false
if IsUnitType(u, UNIT_TYPE_POLYMORPHED) then
DestroyEffect(sfx)
isHidden = true
end
local t = CreateTimer()
TimerStart(t, 0.03, true, function()
duration = duration - 0.03
if duration <= 0.01 or u == nil then
if sfx then
DestroyEffect(sfx)
end
DestroyTimer(t)
return
end
if not isHidden then
if IsUnitType(u, UNIT_TYPE_POLYMORPHED) then
if sfx then
DestroyEffect(sfx)
sfx = nil
end
isHidden = true
end
else
if not IsUnitType(u, UNIT_TYPE_POLYMORPHED) then
sfx = AddSpecialEffectTarget(model, u, attach)
isHidden = false
end
end
end)
end
(Ability being cast) Equal to Siphon Mana
Actions
Set VariableSet DDE_Unit = (Target unit of ability being cast)
Set VariableSet DDE_Attach = overhead
Set VariableSet DDE_Model = Abilities\Spells\Other\TalkToMe\TalkToMe.mdl

Trigger - Run Delayed Destroy Effect Special <gen> (ignoring conditions)
In previous versions, the effect should appear on both arms, but in the current version, it only appears on one arm. Also, in the previous version, the effect was compatible with the trigger that disappeared immediately upon death, but in the current version, it is not compatible with that trigger.Oh, that's what you don't want to happen. Thought it was the other way around.
How about something like this:
Lua:function DelayedDestroyEffectSpecial(u, model, attach, duration) local sfx = AddSpecialEffectTarget(model, u, attach) local isHidden = false if IsUnitType(u, UNIT_TYPE_POLYMORPHED) then DestroyEffect(sfx) isHidden = true end local t = CreateTimer() TimerStart(t, 0.03, true, function() duration = duration - 0.03 if duration <= 0.01 or u == nil then if sfx then DestroyEffect(sfx) end DestroyTimer(t) return end if not isHidden then if IsUnitType(u, UNIT_TYPE_POLYMORPHED) then if sfx then DestroyEffect(sfx) sfx = nil end isHidden = true end else if not IsUnitType(u, UNIT_TYPE_POLYMORPHED) then sfx = AddSpecialEffectTarget(model, u, attach) isHidden = false end end end) end

Thank youThis new version should destroy the effects when the unit dies.
You can also rely on an Ability using a new trigger:
The Ability can have multiple Art - Attachment Points so you don't need to create multiple Special Effects.
Edit: Reuploaded map, fixed bug.
No problem, let me know if there's anything weird about the code.
This time, I need to add sound, but I can only play sound for one unit. However, many units contain custom scripts. As you know, my map doesn't work with general custom scripts, so please tell me how to play sound (attack(applies separately to air and ground), casting) for each unit individually.
I don't understand what playing a Sound for one unit means. You'll have to explain in greater detail.
Your map works with general Custom Scripts. You're just using LUA mode instead of the default JASS mode.
Actions
Custom script: local unit u = GetLastCreatedUnit()
Custom script: call KillUnit(u)
Actions
Custom script: local u = GetLastCreatedUnit()
Custom script: KillUnit(u)
