Simple DoT spell

[Elfangor]

Hi guys can someone please teach me how to create a simple single-targetted DoT spell using triggers. Just a simple trigger will do. No need for special effects. Help is much appreciated. =)

• Trigger
  • Events
    • Unit - A unit begins to cast a spell
  • Conditions
    • (Unit-type of (Triggering unit)) Equal to CASTER UNIT-TYPE
  • Actions
    • Unit - Cause (Triggering unit) to damage (Target unit of ability being cast), dealing VALUE damage of attack type ATTACK TYPE and damage type DAMAGE TYPE.

The great letters written words mean your own choice. It's the simplest damage spell.

You mean damage over time? I guess best if you use this: Dot System.

Post if you dont wanna you system, and you want just simple thing, although this one give you option to make many dots in same time.

Mate please dont scream, i have written: ask if you need simple one, thats no problem for me.

That's not a scream, that's a kinda-like-bold font (I'm too lazy to write in bold, sorry if you're offenced by my words)

Made your DoT spell MUI so he can have fun with dotting everyone in same time, enjoy!

@Spinnaker: I'm pretty sure Paladon's system is MUI. He is known to be an excellent triggerer. And out of curiousity, are you Australian?

 

[Elfangor]

Thanks all. defskull's trigger will do just fine =). +rep

@GhostThruster: Man i use many paladon's systems/stuff and i know that he is best GUI triggerer here and an exellent Jass/vJass triggerer.

I just made your DoT spell MUI, since you told: Paladon's one is advanced.

Hehe... i'm from Poland

 

[Elfangor]

Oh one more thing, can anyone please explain the difference between MUI and GUI?

 

[defskull]

Multi-Unit Instanceable (MUI)
The spell can be used by anyone, anywhere, anytime (supports multiplayer using-spell)

GUI (Graphical User Interface)
This refers to a TOOL that is used in triggering/programming
It can be compared to vJASS/JASS
