Hey, for my map that im making I need a spell which is sort of just a modified knockback
The spell is called "upper cut" which basically deals 80 dmg and knocks the target unit back a few metres
However i want the target unit to fly up a bit, not too much, just a little.
You will probably be thinking "duh just look one up in the spell section"
I have done that, however a lot of the spells i found were too complicated to modifiy,
(adding flying height to them) and due to the new patch i am unsure of which spells will work
For you experienced spell makers hopefully this should be no problem.

and +rep of course!

I just made something like that for my new project
if you like it you may use it
I made it after patch got released so it is very likely that it will work with your map too

+ has many many options (but no sfx options because sfx leak and suck and fuck up performance)
+ GUI (or - if you don't like GUI)
+ does NOT leak at all!!!!! (this was very hard to acquire because it is impossible to create groups in GUI without leak)
- it has no documentation but if you want to I can tell you what stuff does

don't worry about the other stuff
you are free to use it if you like
you may give me credits if you like x)

Lol? that was an odd thing you got there, yes i don't mind if its in GUI
actually i would prefer it, i don't care about waits either, i dont nessecarily need a knockback system
just an ability which deals a little dmg (80) and hits them back a bit
without turning collision off
heres like what i mean

just knocks the target into the air, pushes them back, and stuns for about 2 secs.
And sorry i took long to reply my internet was stuffing up lol.

I made a skeleton jump away system, if the skeleton gets attacked, it jumps away.
I can upload it, and you can modify it.
But if you use it, please give credits.

I noticed that this knocks them backwards from the position they are facing
If you attack them from behind they fly towards you instead
And i'm not too experienced with spell making, i always used simple spells
so i'm not quite sure how i would turn this into an ability, and the facing thing would be a problem
I tried making this spell myself and failed miserably lol
If you can it might have to be made in Jass, however i have no idea how to use Jass
So you would need to document it a lot lol.

well, I can modify it for you.
but I'm not sure if I have enough time today.

[EDIT]

Well, here you have. Just change the ability condition to your ability.

Oh sweet you fixed the facing thing? tyvm i will use this. :cool:

EDIT: Is there anyway I could like halve the flying height and maybe increase the distance moved by about a third???
