[Trigger] Rot

[Extarz]

1)I'd like to know how the Rot Pudge (from DotA) uses is made. I suppose it's original spell is the Night Elf ability Immolation and a dummy with slow aura. But how do I make Pudge lose the HP, is it triggered? And how to I make the slow effect appear on the targets, because it won't work if I set it from the Buffs/Effects editor. (Solved)

2)I did the following: every 1.0 sec of game time a dummy with slow aura would appear at the position of the unit using the Rot ability with an expiration timer of 1 sec. But how do I make that when rot is turned off (because it's based on Immolation) the units stop appearing? I tried using the events 'when a unit stops casting an ability' and 'when a unit finishes casting an ability' but they keep on appearing.

Set the Immolation to target self too.

Yeah I did that now. The only question remaining now is wether the slow is spread by an aura ability used by a dummy or not?

 

[Razorbrain]

the aura is dummy based, but not on a dummy unit. Pudge gains the aura when he activates Rot

 

[lnfernal]

You can order a dummy to cast slow or create a dummy at position of the pudge every second and then killl it with the slow aura.

Oh, so you mean the following: make a spellbook with slow aura in it everytime Pudge activates Rot?

@Infernal: I think I'll make the dummy have the slow from the Tornado rather than make it cast slow. Thanks mate.

the slow from the tornado doesnt take up an icon on the UI, so you can add it to the hero without worrying if it will look bad

Ooo, just add and remove icon then? Great, thanx mate! I've been trying with the dummy but doesn't work as expected. Thanks a bunch!

Okey I did what I had said above but the aura just doesn't work... Why? I put it on my hero and nothing, the ms of all nearby units, including opponents, is the same...

EDIT: Nevermind, I tried with a negative Endurance Aura and it worked.

try using a Issued Order event instead, and instead of a Ability Comparsion, do a Order Comparsion

Hehe, it worked. Thanks a bunch, everything is fine now.
