Bribe: I'm gonna "highly recommend" this spell cause your GUI is boss.

The_Reborn_Devil:

Triggering looks really nice.
Good eye-candy as well.
It's also a very original idea.

I can't see any other option than approving this spell.
If you disagree you could PM me ^^

I Recommend this spell.

wow. WOW.
Really nice stuff. Tested it, I didn't look over the triggers because I hate GUI and everything worked flawless. Good job there. Liked the spell very much. 5/5

 

[Deuterium]

HAHAHA I LOVE IT! =)
Great job there!

And totally lagless

 

[Aspard]

Just a remake of the blue one version?
We've already disscused it, gj again

 

[Reaper2008]

D4RK_G4ND4LF, you really like hearing "GJ man!" don't you?

Good job anyway, love everything. Sadly GUI makes me nauseus, so no comment on the triggers.

 

[Diehard@Azeroth]

you see gandalf this is a good spell, but the only problem with these types of Z movement spells is that unit may be stuck in an unpathable place after getting knocked there :/ as for efficiency, use globals for the loop, better if in an array, you dont need to creat elocals for just looping through indexes. i know this is overrated, but gj ^^

 

[Deuterium]

Well he can use the Jass system: IsTerrainPathable for that problem

units won't get stuck anywhere as long as the caster does not cause they will be moved back always (or at least they should do so)

I deleted the one with the mana drain effects cause I thought it wouldn't be unique enough and there were some unfixed issues anyway

edit:
globals appear to be a lot faster then locals so I replaced them

 

[Deuterium]

Well they did get stuck once there's always is a chance they do

And non-arrayed locals are faster then arrayed globals

 

[Diehard@Azeroth]

if you make them arrayed globals then use [#] to set a limit for the global. Btw i really think u need to get ur resources from guys like vexorian or something, whos the guy at warcraft.de ?

globals preset values instead of constantly having to create them, they just insert them, so creating a local every time a spell is cast rather than setting it is slower tho i have a bad feeling about GUI globals hmm... prob just me lmao

wow srsly, it does make a difference from lets say 0.0000000000000001 seconds.

 

[Diehard@Azeroth]

hehe i did say gj first ^^ Sorry, became like this after learning JASS lmao...

anyways i just remembered you cant do that setting variable limit in GUI, hmm though i think u can in variable editor.

 

[D4RK_G4ND4LF]

anyways i just remembered you cant do that setting variable limit in GUI, hmm though i think u can in variable editor.

it's not the limit but the index until it will be set to some value which can be set there too

and jass globals are the same as GUI globals
at least it looks like that when exporting the script.j

 

[Diehard@Azeroth]

Alright bro, thanks for tip ^^ need to get beter wording, you know any specific word to describe the "limit"?

also sorry appearing to be an asshole talking about efficiency and shit like that... i really just wanted to improve coding to the fullest >_>

 

[Deuterium]

Globals are globals whether Jass or GUI...

And D4RK_G4ND4LF says in a short manner why non-arrayed locals are faster then arrayed globals (specially indexed ones which are arrayed twice).

 

[Diehard@Azeroth]

i wasnt referring to globals being different in GUI or JASS ,

hmm i think ur right about this subject in this case since it has the possibility of using multiple units and expanding its index ^^

 

[RiotZ]

is there a way to skip through putting in the triggers like a type of copy and paste

 

[cedi]

Nice... But its always intersting to see how many more comments the nearly same spell in GUI gets.. Naja its a GUI'ler site.

cedi

 

[topdog-160]

This spell is EPIC! 5/5

 

[Nice_Rampage]

Disculpa como puedo subir los niveles por ejemplo hacer la habilidad lvl 15 y restar los segundos por level de la habilidad

 

[D4RK_G4ND4LF]

Disculpa como puedo subir los niveles por ejemplo hacer la habilidad lvl 15 y restar los segundos por level de la habilidad

please translate that to english
the google translation does not make any sense at all
"Sorry as I can raise levels eg the ability to lvl 15 and subtracting the latter by the skill level"

 

[aider]

nice, but is there any way to make the units get blocked by trees and hills, so ppl dont get stuck in trees, and on top of hills? And remove the pullback effect, so units have to hit the target again to get knockbacked for the second time? Thanks

if the units are pulled back they won't get stuck

SetUnitPosition is too slow and item pathchecking is too unaccurate

Fucking awesome spell 5/5!
