[Spell] Shockwave Spell From Scratch

[RupTure_QS]

How would one go about triggering a line-of-fire spell such as Shockwave? Where anything within distance of it as it's moving along it's line is damaged?

Request it on the Request Section or see some spells on Spells Section..

Of course it depends on how special you want it to do, but you can try to add immolation to a dummy model.

Then after casting you create this dummy model, and move it to aiming point. (movement: flying)
If you want it faser than speed 522, you can use SetUnitX/Y for movement.

And you could add expiration timer of course to dummy model.

Its just simple.. dude..

Ok here you go.. its MUI and just edit the settings..

the concept is..
Start the spell, add an expiration timer, create a group, move your dummy periodically, picks units within range, deals damage to them then check if the dummy is dead or not, if yes turn off the loop trigger

I asked it in this because I wanted to know how I would start making it, not a request of the whole spell... Sorry, but thanks for providing though.

ignore the stage 2 in the loop trigger

if you change the dummy to shockwave, it will become a shockwave spell x3

basically, make a dummy, give it the shockwave model, move it every few microseconds, check for enemies, damage and save each enemy so that it won't hit more than once on the same enemy

 

[Rheiko]

Yay! Adiktuz explained it :3

If you did anything in JASS every few microseconds, the game would definitely crash. A microsecond is 0.000001 seconds

 

[Adiktuz]

oh wait, miliseconds... hahaha
