This bundle is marked as recommended. It works and satisfies the submission rules.
This is quite a simple, but I think quite useful as well.
When activated, knockbacks all enemies away, not allowing to enemies to get too close to you.
This spell is based on Wind Walk, so it won't interrupt current action while cast.
v0.01 - First uploaded
v0.02 - Fixed the leak, Instant Knockback is no more.

Review:
In the version I downloaded it isn't. The change-log is blank, so I'm assuming he hasn't changed anything. Look closer?
I see you use the dummy-unit to have a unique handle ID that you can reference for each instance of the spell.
| Repel This spell has been done many times over, and perhaps with a little better quality than this. - You could name your variables a little better, as this spell would be pretty difficult to simply do a copy+paste. The user would probably have to rename all of your variables and fix the references for them in all of your triggers. Try to keep your names unique to the spell, in this case you could give them a "Repel_" prefix or something. - - The location "Points[1]" leaks in your "Repel Cast" trigger. - I won't say this is a "problem" per se, but in "Repel Effect" trigger you have the following line:
Also you shouldn't be using the position of the caster when knocking the affected units backwards, instead you should be using their position ("Points[2]"). This will require another location, so don't forget to clean that either. - There are too many effects displayed on the affected units, it poorly represents the effects of the spell. |
