The triggering looks ok now, even though your recycling method isn't the most favoured, but it does it's job I suppose.

I'm afraid this is not MUI. I am not sure if it gets approved :/

Marsal · Aug 12, 2010

i don't really know how to make a spell with timer in MUI ~.~
how can i upload the triggers? there is just a TRIGGER tag but how can i insert the triggers?

Pharaoh_ · Aug 12, 2010

Well, go to your trigger and right click on the name of the trigger (not from the list of triggers, but within the trigger itself) and click "Copy as Text". Come back here and right click -> Paste.

Marsal · Aug 12, 2010

oaaaa thank you very much

First of all don't double post.The EDIT button is there for a reason.
Also... the triggers seem neater but I couldn't tell you if it is MUI or not.

Marsal · Aug 12, 2010

i know it but double post isn't as big problem as you think ~.~
there are much more bigger problems ~.~ (not exactly in this thread)

tjordell · Aug 12, 2010

nic00, Change the "Caster" variable from (Casting Unit) to (Triggering Unit). More flexible.

Also, instead of Integer A, Use a Integer Variable. Reduces the chance to 0% to get the spell Retarded xD.

Prince.Zero · Aug 13, 2010

you don't need a variable to define the creation angle..

Just use 72 * Integer A

Marsal · Aug 13, 2010

okay but this isn't the problem ~.~ and it adds 30 to the angle so this is the easier way (for me)

Adiktuz · Aug 14, 2010

Since IDK indexing, I'll be suggesting using hashtables

just add every target unit into a unit group, save all shadows in a hashtable, the duration into that hashtable and then just create a loop trigger that loops thru all units in the unit group...

if you do not know how to use hashtables, search in the tutorials section...

^^

anyway, nice spell idea...

Marsal · Aug 14, 2010

the duration depends on the enemy
if it has the buff and it starts the effects of a dispell the spell will end
i started to learn that hashtable thing but it's a little complicated ~.1
how can i make it without a concrete duration in hashtable?

baassee · Dec 12, 2010

This can only take 8190 instances split with 5 (for each illusion each cast) so 1638 instances.

Some useful links for you.

Link 1 Link 2 Link 3 Link 4

Marsal · Dec 12, 2010

isn't it enough that i make an if with condition SSIndex equal to 8190 and if it's true set the index to 1?

baassee · Dec 12, 2010

And if instance 1 is still on? No it will not be enough I am sorry.

Link 2 and 3 are the most common ones. Number 4 is hashtable usage and number 1 is for those who want to reach the top of the top

Marsal · Dec 12, 2010

is that possible?

who the hell will cast it 1638 times at the same time?

i'll read it

baassee · Dec 12, 2010

at the same time? it's total you dont recycle indexes

Nightbrowler · Dec 27, 2010

The dummies don't fade there remain there untill you recast the spell so 2/5

EDIT: and if you cast the spell 2 times on the same unit it laggs..

Marsal · Dec 27, 2010

the dummies are removed if the target don't have the buff or it's dead
it works for me

Dr. Boom · Dec 27, 2010

Moin moin =)

Wow! Another good example of a spell, where I need to ask myself, if a spell moderator know, what he do -_-. Why the hell (and this is nothing against you Marsal2000 now) this spell get an approval status? I tested the spell at all 5 times and I got those 7 things, which are NOT correct in any case (5. is not important). A spell creator should trust at least a rating and comment of the moderator, but after this spell, I hope everyone see, how much we can give to it!!

1) Look at the keywords: Not that if would be enough, that there are some unnecessary keywords, no there are even keywords, which are double used (like strike and shadow)

2) When I cast the spell two times and more, there's a huge lag!

3) It says "reduce movementspeed by 100%", you never ask yourself, why the target unit is still moving?

4) Also it says "deals 0.02/0.04/0.06/0.08/0.10 of the casters agility as damage", but look at the formula how the damage is calculated: "0.02 x agility of the caster * agility of the caster"

5) When the target unit is dead (which is very fast with that damage calculation), the summoned spirits stand around and do nothing until they die. If the target unit is dead, you should remove those spirits.

6) After the spell is done, even then some spirits can stay on the map and they never get removed.

7) You should really learn, how to make a spell correct MUI! not with pick every unit on the map to check when the trigger should be disabled and the way how you loop is not approve able too.

8) Also a huge bug, if I cast the spell and some spirits remains and I cast it again, those last spirit will attack to, so I have more then 5 spirits and at all I deal over 20000 damage in this way.

@Marsal2000: Again what I said above is NOT your fault ok? I'm just a little angry about the reborn devil in this case! I like the spell idea at all, something new here and I really hope you fix those bugs, make a good and correct MUI coding and improve the performance of the spell, because it's a really cool idea ( and then the approve status would be ok .. )

Greetings and Peace
Dr. Boom

Marsal · Dec 27, 2010

ookay okay i rewrite it using unit groups, i think it'll fix these bugs
and he just checked the code i posted ~.~ it's not his fault it's just a we error
1:that's not that important ~.~
2:the unit groups will fix that
3:it's because w3, there is no 100% slow
4: it's 0.02/0.04/0.06/00.08/0.10x Agi damage per slash (5 slash per second) per spirit
example: if the caster has 100 agility then if the skill is lv1 each slash will deal 2 damage, there are 5 slashes per secondso it's 10 and there are 5 spirits so the spell deals 50 damage/second
5:the unit groups will fix that
6:the unit groups will fix that
7:i know it's not the best but it's MUI and the disable part works correctly
8:the unit groups will fix that and they don't damage because it clears the target and caster variable so it deals damage to nothing

Dr. Boom said:
@Marsal2000: Again what I said above is NOT your fault

you're wrong, i've found the problem ~.~ i've swapped the target with the caster in some places~.~

Dr. Boom · Dec 27, 2010

To make it short:

1) It's more then just important, when everyone choose the keywords, like to did, we can delete the search function at all, now the search function doesn't work correct anyway ...

2) 5) 6) 7) When you know, that you don't the GUI + MUI way, why you even do it? I bet if you use it, the lag with reduced and thinks will work correctly anyway and the thing is, use a pick every unit in playable maparea is a complete wrong way to turn the loop of, this just will increase the memory used to this spell -> senseless.

4) and 8) ok I casted the spell 4 times on the same target, if everything would work, I don't get this values (the hitpoints of the target)

Start: 55100 after casting the spell 1.: 52500
Start: 52500 after casting the spell 2.: ~ 47100
Start: ~ 47100 after casting the spell 3.: ~ 38300
Start: ~ 38300 after casting the spell 4.: ~ 26100

So if I cast the spell more then one time, I see more then 5 spirits are attacking!!

3) You even say that it hasn't but you type it .... and by the way it has. First way: Make a trigger note that everyone know it: Go to Advanced > Gameplay Constant > Movementspeed - Unit minimum speed and set this to 0. Second way: Store the current movement speed in a variable and reduce the movementspeed of the target by this variable. After increase it by this variable again.

Edit:

you're wrong, i've found the problem ~.~ i've swapped the target with the caster in some places~.~

Maybe this will explain some things =)

yeah, almost everything ~.~
2) 5) 6) 7) hey it's my first try to make something in MUI loop using indexing
already rewriten it with unit group and reduced the size of max looping and now it's not lagging(for me) and works better
edit: but there is still a little problem :S if the target dies before the buff ends it's not 100% that the dummies die
edit2: YEAHA succes

agorgeous and useful, 5/5!

I seen your spell use the "SSTarget[SSInteger] has buff Shadow Strike 2" to detect and damage the target.
But if other people use this spell again, the "Shadow Strike 2" will continue more time, then your spell will also continue?

hmm... that's correct but I don't know how to fix it without changing it into a spell with exact timer, I wanted to make it dispellable easily ~.~

cool spell, its a perfect match for dark type models or units in warcraft :grin:

So, after killing the Brewmaster, I found some bugs. After using the spell multiple times, the units were still there after the brewmaster died, if you wish, I can make this in vJass to fix this?
EDIT: Also, just add a generic expiration timer to each unit, make a duration variable.
EDIT2: When you kill the dummy units, dont kill them, remove them. Just a personal preference.

Marsal · Feb 20, 2011

that was my first MUI spell made in indexing, I don't know why but if I cast it on the same unit when another spell still running on it the first one's dummies remains there, it's enough if you find what the bug is ~.~
duration can be changed by modifying the spells buff duration
it's not a good idea ~.~ the avatar of vengeance has a nice death animation and it looks much more beter when they leave a little dark explosion ~.~

Moin moin =)

Thing is, there must be something wrong. When I set the cooldown to a value, which is under the spell duration and cast the spell 3 times on one target, I got this after the spell is done:

These spirits just stand on the map then. I tell the truth I don't know why this happen, but you can prevent this, if you replace "Pick every unit in SSDummyGroup and (Kill Picked unit)" with "Pick every unit in SSDummyGroup and (Remove Picked unit)".

=== Just for typo ===
In the Ability learn text, the last part of the sentence is " and lows enemy it." I think you want say something else, if not I'm sorry.
In the Buff Tooltip is, that the target is slowed AND can miss on attacks. But I don't see anything, how you do this miss.

Else seems to be a good spell - Good Job

It's not problem if I just kill and not remove them.
The toltips are a little old ~.~

I'm just having an impression: Is this a "multiple-units-omnislashing-one-target" skill?

Marsal · Jun 5, 2011

If you want to define it you can call it a Damage Over Time spell. There were extras like slowing the target and others but I removed them.

Correction: It's a DOT spell with dramatic special effects. =D

Marsal · Jun 7, 2011

Correction: With kick-ass effects ^^

Why this version cant deals any damage?

Marsal · Nov 1, 2011

It deals damage for me. If you copied it onto your map check the triggers. The editor can mess it up at copy.
