Spell Question

[solomon409]

Hello, Thank you for clicking for i have a big problem, Im am creating a spell called Posssesion that is diffrent from the ingame possesion where the hero has a CHANCE of possesing the target unit.

I have made a ability with triggers but i dont know if it will work.
Bascily the Spell is composed of a few steps:
1-Unit is hit by "Possesion" Spell(target spell)(based off storm bolt)
2-The spell deals low damage and stuns for a few seconds
3a-IF the unit's hp is lower then or equal to (level of spell x10)%, then it is yours!(a small floating message appears above the target displaying the success message)
3b-IF not, then nothing happens.(and a message above the unit appears saying "Possession Failed"

Basicly, the dummy base spell takes care of the stun and damage, then my triggers do the rest, i just need someone to examin and tell me if it leaks or if there are any problems.If yes, please tell me what are the problems, if not, then please say so.

      • If - Conditions

1. For Event, please use the "Unit - Starts the effect of an ability"
It's the safest, most efficient Event to use in a Spell-casting Event

2. Add your Conditions, you don't want to make ANY unit casting ANY spell, will trigger this trigger, right... ?
So, add Conditions, like this:

• Conditions
  • (Ability being cast) Equal to Possession

3. Do NOT use Wait, as it will bug your trigger, very much

4. Use this Action to destroy Floating Text without the usage of Wait

• Actions
  • Floating Text - Create floating text that reads Possession Success ! above (Target unit of ability being cast) with Z offset 0.00, using font size 10.00, color (100.00%, 100.00%, 100.00%), and 0.00% transparency
  • Floating Text - Set the velocity of (Last created floating text) to 64.00 towards 90.00 degrees
  • Floating Text - Change (Last created floating text): Disable permanence
  • Floating Text - Change the lifespan of (Last created floating text) to 3.00 seconds

5. If you have any more problem, please, do tell.
