Spell Makers Required.

[Kwah]

I need people to make MUI, leakless knockback spells.

This is for my project: LIzard survival. The idea of the map is:

he goal of the map is to survive to the end of the round.

You can be killed by being trampled by a lizard.

Lizards come from the top of the map and collide with players and objects.

Players choose from either, Builder, Runner, Tank or Sniper.

Builder - Builds defenses.

Runner - Runs away quiickly

Tank - Slow with powerful melee knockback skills

Sniper - Ranged Knockback skills

There is a base of skills but some can only be bought by certain classes.


Spells are aquired inbeteewn rounds through a shop.

Every unti can also adjust it's stats:

Weight - High weight = low knockback and speed
Low weight = high knockback and speed

Strength - Increase amount that knockbacks.

All of the knockback spells should interface with the Wieght system. For example: Knockback distance = strength/weight. Or some other formula.


Spell makers must be experienced.

I will give out rep to spell makers.

If you make one spell you get a game credit in the Initiliaztion message.

More than 3 spells (including three) and a loading screen credit will be included.

Haha, your weight system, how does it work? you want to give globally every unit a variable? or how?

I could easily do nearly every possible knock back spell, i just need access to the weight to calculate the knock back :X.

 

[Kwah]

Hmm, that is the thing. . .

I don't have the weight system yet. . .

I was hoping that I could get help with that.

I was considering using variations of the base stats. Strength = Strength Intelligence = Mana and Agility = Weight.

Also if you design weight system and spells then your name will be features promenetly on the loading screen. (As big as mine)

It would be great if you could help.

+rep for interest

else u can have a function for type that returns weight. like

local unit u = GetSpellTargetUnit()
local real w = weight(u)

function weight takes unit u returns real
    local unit f = u
    local real weight = 0

    if IsUnitType(f,'Blah') then
         set weight = 200.
    elseif IsUnitType(f,'Halb') then
         set weight = 100.
    endif
    set f = null
    return weight
endfunction

im such a genius :>

 

[Kwah]

The only thing is that I want weight to be adjustable through items.

Ie: You buy any item and it has weight. Some items there only purpose is weight.

Thanks for all the interst people. +rep to you all.

You should probably use structs or units' custom values for the weight.

 

[Kwah]

I was thinking about using custom value. . .

Why not use stats?

 

[Ciebron]

well like i wrote it, it can be used for everything with some small changes


and im tottaly up for this :>

 

[redscores]

Well, I am up to do the system and the spells, its not hard to do it (just 1 or 2 header functions) but you will need WcNewGen to save the map afterwards, ok?

my MSN is [email protected]

 

[Kwah]

Ok, how do you get WcNewGen?

I will send you an email with some more details.

@cierebron - If redscores is up to do it all I think that I am going to let him.

Thanks for you interest.

 

[~Void~]

I was thinking about using custom value. . .

Why not use stats?

I was going to suggest that but I wasn't sure whether or not you were using it for something else =P

Maybe use Strength because it gives HP and usually more weight = more vitality? (well... for lizards at least =P)

 

[Kwah]

Hmm, I am not using the stats to do anything beside set weight.

 

[redscores]

Well, I maybe cannot work much... becoz i got own projects :X.

 

[Bobo_The_Kodo]

Im up for this, I can do as much as you want

 

[Kwah]

Hmm, redscores.

I think that I'm gonna hand this one over to Bobo cause I know him.


If you still want to help then I'll try to find a way. . .

If not. . .

Then have some rep for offering.

 

[Bobo_The_Kodo]

What. to. do?

 

[Kwah]

Umm, I talked to Sean and we are going to try to get together sometime soon.

I'll give you more details then.

For now just forget about it as the map is at Tom's instead of here. . .

I hear that you are going to Texas.

 

[PurplePoot]

This should mostly solve what you need.

 

[Kwah]

Ooooo, Thanks.

I'm still kinda lazy/nubby though so I'll see about getting Bobo to do some of my other more complicated spells.
