[Numerion]

[Razorbrain]

i could, so you want it exactly like the one in dota or just a similar one?

 

[Numerion]

i want like necro in diablo2 but it is very like in dota so...

 

[Razorbrain]

ah, okay, so you are looking for something like

1. Hero casts spell
2. Poison move outwards
3. When a unit touches the poison, they get a buff that deals damage overtime?

 

[Numerion]

yea something like that

 

[Razorbrain]

okay, just wait a minute, ill edit this post when im done

EDIT : Okay, here we go, you are going to need these triggers. Note, only 1 Unit per player can use this. I might be able to make it MUI, but imma have to think a lot more then

• Poison Nova Cast
• Events
  • Unit - A unit Starts the Effect of an ability
• Condition
  • (Ability being cast) Equal to Poison Nova
• Action
  • For each (Integer A) between 1 and 24 do (Actions)
    • Loop - Actions
      • Set Point = (Position of (Triggering unit))
      • Set Point2 = (Point offset by 500 towards ((Real(Integer A)) x 15.00) degrees
      • Custom script: call RemoveLocation(udg_Point)
      • Set Point = (Position of (Triggering unit))
      • Unit - Create 1 PoisonNovaDummy for (Owner of (Triggering unit)) at Point facing Default building facing
      • Unit - Order (Last created unit) to Move To Point2
      • Unit - Add a 3 second Generic experation timer for (Last created unit)
      • Custom script: call RemoveLocation(udg_Point)
      • Custom script: call RemoveLocation(udg_Point2)

• Poison Nova Buff
• Events
  • Time - Every 0.05 seconds of Game-time
• Conditions
• Actions
  • Pick every unit in PoisonNovaGroup and do (Actions)
    • Loop - Actions
      • If (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions)
        • If - Conditions
          • ((Picked unit) has buff Poison Nova) Equal to True
        • Then - Actions
        • Else - Actions
          • Unit Group - Remove (Picked unit) from PoisonNovaGroup
  • Set TempGroup = (Units of type PoisonNovaDummy)
    • Loop - Actions
      • Set TempUnit = (Picked unit)
      • Set Point = (Position of TempUnit)
      • Set TempGroup2 = (Units within 100 of Point matching (((Owner of (Matching unit) is an enemy of (Owner of TempUnit) and ((((Matching unit) is A structure) Equal to False) and (((Matching unit) is in PoisonNovaGroup) Equal to False)))
      • Custom script: call RemoveLocation(udg_Point)
      • Unit Group - Pick every unit in TempGroup2 and do (Actions)
        • Loop - Actions
          • Set Point = (Position of (Picked unit))
          • Create 1 DummyCaster for (Owner of TempUnit) at Point facing Default building facing
          • Custom script: call RemoveLocation(udg_Point)
          • Unit - Add Poison Nova Posion to (Last created unit)
          • Unit - Order (Last created unit) to Night Elf - Warden - Shadow Strike (Picked unit)
          • Unit - Add a 2 second Generic experation timer for (Last created unit)
          • Unit Group - Add (Picked unit) to PoisonNovaGroup
      • Custom script: call DestroyGroup(udg_TempGroup2)
  • Custom script: call DestroyGroup(udg_TempGroup)

i know its quite complicated, but some things you should know.

1. The PoisonNovaDummy units will move live for 3 seconds
2. They will move 500 Range away from the caster
3. The spell will not stack if 2 players from the same team will cast it at the same time or almost at the same time
4. You can use any poison you want instead of Shadow Strike, i just used it as an example

if you have any questions, feel free to ask. Im not 100% sure it will work, but i think so

 

[Numerion]

i will tell you when i test it (i am at holydays) , ty for it and i will tell you if it worked
i will give you rep now because i will forgot on it

 

[Numerion]

little question how i need the PoisonNovaDummy look like?

 

[Razorbrain]

well, you can make it look however you want. How it looks will not change the trigger a bit. However, you might want to add the Invulnerable and Locust abilities to it, since then they wont die and it will not look horrible when they do

 

[GhostWolf]

However, you might want to add the Invulnerable and Locust abilities to it

Locust'ed units can't be targeted and thus you do not need invulnerable.

 

[X.e.r.e.X]

Locust'ed units can't be targeted and thus you do not need invulnerable.

Wouldn't AoE spells still hit locusted if it isn't invulnerable?

 

[redscores]

They will Xerex.

 

[Razorbrain]

actually, you can pick units when using either Units Owned by Player or Units of Type if that is what you meant
