REgrowing Trees

[Koopa124]

So I wanted to have a dryad have an ability to regrow trees (only from dead trees).

How would i do this, i looked at the map tree tag, and copied the ability from their, but when i put it in my map, it doesnt work. am i missing somthing?

The real way to do this would be with a trigger. Make an aoe castable/tragetable ability. Then when the unit casts that ability make a trigger use the regrow tree action (or something like that) on all the destructibles in that area. I think the action your looking for is reset destructible or something along those lines.

mm.....have u ever played tree tag? when they cast the ability, the trees sprout up frmo the ground. maybe they did it your way, maybe not.

He may uses a trigger like that..:
EVent
A units Finishes casting an ability
COndition
Abilty being cast equal to <Spell>
Action
Destractible create dead trees to <region>
Destractible recarnate last created destractible

SO If he uses sth like that they may seem to Grow up from NOwhere but In fact they were Just been created ^ ^


I am not really sure of the trigger, but it mast be similar

Make a custom ability based on a AoE spell. Dispell for example. Remove all the effects, put in the mana cost and cooldown and make a trigger like this:

• Trees
  • Events
    • Unit - A unit Starts the effect of an ability
  • Conditions
    • (Ability being cast) Equal to (Your ability)
  • Actions
    • Destructible - Pick every destructible within (AoE of your spell) of (Target point of ability being cast) and do (Destructible - Resurrect (Picked destructible) with (Max life of (Picked destructible)) life and Show birth animation)

what should i put for "unit"

cause it either says preset (no unit) or variable, and i dont know what variable it would be.

 

[Battle_Shipper]

No, use the Generic unit event, not the Specific one.

 

[Koopa124]

Hmm still not working, i get this wierd white blob, then it goes away.

let me take a look.

• Regrow Trees
• Events
• Unit - A unit Finishes casting an ability
• Conditions
• (Ability being cast) Equal to Regrow Trees
• Actions
• Destructible - Pick every destructible within 200.00 of (Target point of ability being cast) and do (Actions)
• Loop - Actions
• Destructible - Resurrect (Last created destructible) with (Max life of (Last created destructible)) life and Show birth animation

Like that? its still not working tho

 

[Wicky42]

change the "resurrect (last created destructible)" to "resurrect (picked destructible)". that should do it Though i don't personally know if you can "resurrect" dead trees... never tried it, but if you guys know it works then great.

 

[Battle_Shipper]

Is your ability a channeling one? If not, I'm pretty sure "Finishes casting an ability" doesn't work. Change it to "Starts the effect of an ability".

 

[Koopa124]

Channeling?

And i changed it to "starts effect of an ability" awhile ago.

I think there was one in another site, but I don't remember exactly. I will try finding it!

EDIT: Here it is Regrowth Trees!!! It s a bit outdated, but may help you!!! Check the triggers and see if it is of any use!

 

[Shadowman5573]

So your trigger example that says AOE of the spell isnt an option in the trigger editor

 

[Elprede]

The option is there. It is the Destructable - Pick Every Destructable in Circle trigger action.
