Stop [v1.1]

Pharaoh_: The spell seems to be MUI.
• Add locust to the rune circle.
• The "speed" is not really configurable. You should add a value, which you will be subtracting 0.03 from, just like the "stopcount" variable.
• Use (Triggering player) instead of (Owner of S_caster[S_Index2]).
•

• Set S_stopmax[S_index2] = (2.00 + (Real((Level of Unknown (A000) for S_caster[S_index2]))))

reset the ability.
• You don't need S_stopmax; just use S_stopcount with the value of S_stopmax and subtract 0.03 in the looping trigger.
•

• Custom script: call RemoveLocation (udg_S_dummypoint)

Move this out of the if/then/else block.
• Untick the "Disables Other abilities" and use a Base Order ID (in case other spells are made out of Channel on the same hero).You can also use "Targeting image" and set an AoE value for the sake of the visuals.

• I really liked the effect

Edit: Important changes have been made; resource approved with a rating of 4/5 (Recommended).

The demo map is a little strange - why are you removing the ability each time it's cast?

It makes it really difficult to spam the ability before it expires.

It's because the "Disable Other abilities" is set to True. I didn't find it annoying to be honest

 

[Bribe]

Maybe your computer has less overhead when that happens - for me it's like a 2 second delay until I can cast again

 

[Pharaoh_]

It's hardly 0.5 seconds for me
Anyway, I will add it to the "needs fix" list.

Isn't pausing units a No-No? :S

 

[Pharaoh_]

Pausing a unit is indeed problematic, concerning the orders' queue and the fact that it clears the abilities' inventory. I discourage its use in systems that force units to fly. However, in spells/systems that "pause" time, I find it the most possible way (another way would involve 2 abilities). If you have a workaround of your own, feel free to submit it

 

[Bribe]

A dummy unit to cast stun would be less of a conflict with other systems, in fact a
good stun library should be made for GUI users for situations like this.

However, for the system's approval this is too complicated for what it needs to be,
so in this case pausing the unit is acceptable.

 

[Jay the Editor]

Pharaoh_, are there any disadvantages of using pausing units?

 

[korusas]

It's a little hard for me to get how you made the variable integer to be -None- cuz it doesn't allow me to do it like that and so the stop time trigger doesn't work. How do you do it ?

 

[Bribe]

How to get integer to be none? What are you talking about?

 

[Jay the Editor]

korusas, hmm? I don't get what you mean. If the trigger doesn't work, just copy the folder of the spells and paste it onto your map. Just remember to make sure that the "Automatically create unknown variables while pasting trigger data" is ticked. It's located in "File ----> Preferences ----> Automatically create unknown variables while pasting trigger data".

i guess this is a copy of dota void's ultimate

 

[Jay the Editor]

dota void's ultimate? @ @?

 

[Dogzo]

dota void's ultimate? @ @?

just go on youtube and see it

 

[Admiral Jack]

Nice work.....this is the spell closer to chronosphere in dota....
Rate: 4.98/5

No
This spell slows enemy then pauses them; but Cronos Sphere pauses them instant.

dota void's ultimate? @ @?

You should see it. It has very nice effect.

 

[woodknight]

Great spell. I will be using it. (will give credit ofcourse)

 

[Jay the Editor]

woodknight: Thanks actually i don't really need the credits.

 

[forthelols]

i prefer if you replaced the time rune with a spinning clock I think appears in a Diablo III map.

 

[Jay the Editor]

haha... I used the time rune as soon as I found it in Hive Workshop and did not even bother to go find the others because I just got excited when the idea comes in
