[Spell Request] Elemental Punch!

[Nightbrowler]

Hi guys,
Im just about to finish my map and i would need this spell.

Spell:
Just a simple punch with some lightning sfx and a knockback, should be MUI GUI and iy should have a 30% chance to slow the targets MS and AS for 50% for 5 seconds.Knockback range should be 500 and the Damage should be (Intelligents X 6).

You're using three different parent keys:

• Hashtable - Save Duration as (Key Duration) of (Key (Target unit of ability being cast)) in HashEP
• Hashtable - Save Handle OfCasterLoc as (Key CasterLoc) of (Key (Triggering unit)) in HashEP
• Hashtable - Save Handle OfPlayerUnit as (Key PlayerUnit) of (Key (Owner of (Triggering unit))) in HashEP

You store locations into hashtable, but remove the locations immeadiately after that. You're not using the "stored" locations afterwards, so why store them?

The location removing scripts are all in a wrong place in the looping trigger.

Make the turn off check only after a unit is removed from the group.

Just trying to help you improve your spells

Ahahah no offense are taken, dude
Thank you for the tips
+rep haha

1. Did I use the stored variable, in my EP Loop trigger ?
Where the Set CasterLoc = (load) bla bla ?

2. Should the custom script be inside THEN function ?

3. I did the Number of units in group greater 0, right ?
If 0, well, turn off ?

Still learning ^^

Now it's a bit better.

But move unit instantly can make the knockback path "wiggle" a bit. Either stop the unit if it hits something or use setunitx() and setunity() with some collision detection.

Oh, because my Angle is based only once, not updated once every 0.05 seconds, that is why I didn't need to store CasterLoc and TargetLoc into the hashtable, is it ?
And thank you for the Turn off trigger when group 0

And may I ask you why did the Duration is loaded, outside the THEN function ?
Just curious

Wow thankis defskull and maker, you already posted on 2 of my threads thanks =) +rep

EDIT: I saw the spell it's great but could you add like a sfx when punching the target?!!

 

[defskull]

What SFX you want ?
I'm kinda bad when making spells to be "eye-candy" =,=''

Test map has been edited

 

[rcshaggy]

Would be useful for a Pokemon map and a way to make sure creeps or even unwanted people away with a punch of elemental!

 

[Nightbrowler]

Alright nice thanks =)!

EDIT: Last thing, i would need 2 other abillities that don't interfere with each other because i want to use these triggers more than just once !.. i wanna make fire, ice, thunder(made) Punch
