Simple Spell Request (Throw Stone)

[chilla_killa]

Hey guys,

I need a spell for my survival map. You can find stones all over the map as items. They're used as crafting material, but I also want them to be throwable.

I want to use it out of the inventory. You click on the stone, then click somewhere on the ground or directly on an enemy and it will throw the stone with a stone missile and if it hits something on it's way it will deal damage and stun for 1 second.

That's all I need. I need it in GUI please.

I will give you credits and reputation.
Thanks

Maybe Mirana's Elune Arrow will do the job? There are alot of spells in Hive try search ;p

Hmm no that's JASS and I can't modify it easily

 

[GywGod133]

For me, its not easy to create a spell like this on one day

I can create this spell maybe in 3 days lol

 

[chilla_killa]

Oh I didn't know it was so difficult

 

[Frotty]

It's not difficult at all.
YOu could either do it yourself or use systems for it.

But I need it to target ground or directly on unit. The missile system above is only with no target.

 

[Frotty]

You know there is a asearch function, right?

This one can even inflict damage.

 

[chilla_killa]

Well thanks, but do you even read what I need? This one works only if you target directly on unit. But I need it work without target, I mean targeting ground too.

 

[Frotty]

Dude you can do that with that system, it's a few lines of GUI, so pls, do some work yourself.

e: Seriously, Read the system doc

MS_TargetPoint1: Sets the target point of the missile.

 

[chilla_killa]

I wouldn't post this in the request forum if I knew how to and where to do this. So instead of simply linking me a system you could have told me what exactly to do. But thanks for the hint with the system doc, I didn't know it was there. I played a little bit with it, but somehow it doesn't do damage anymore?! Can you help me please?

 

[Frotty]

Yes, but should I leave you in your hole empty of knowledge ?
It is always a good idea to learn and improve your triggering skills.
And what do you mean "anymore", did it do at some point?
It works fine for me

 

[chilla_killa]

And what do you mean "anymore", did it do at some point?

Yes it healed and damaged before I changed the target to a ground target. Now the missile flies fine but it doesn't do damage.

 

[Frotty]

Did you change impactRadius?

 

[chilla_killa]

I tried modifying it, but it didn't change anything...
Could you please check the map and tell me what's wrong?
Example 1 is the only relevant spell.

 

[Frotty]

In the Example 1 trigger:
Change:

• MS_AoEorSlboolean1 = true
• MS_ImpactRadius1 = 64

and change

• MS_Target1 = (Target unit ..)

to

• MS_TargetPoint1 = (Target point of ability being cast) (leaks..)

Then make the channel-spell Point Target.
That worked for me.

The MS_AoEorSIboolean defines whether it's unit target or point target (judging from the explanation)

 

[chilla_killa]

Why does that leak?

 

[Frotty]

Because it creates a location that is not destroyed
e: unless the system destroys it the system doesn't remove the location
