Traps v1.0.0

Traps

Made these two for a project long time ago. Maybe someone can use them.

The demo map:
  • Arcane and lightning trap with all required resources
  • A small demo map
Requires:
  • Dummy
  • optional TimerUtils

Credits:

  • Dummy

The spells use native UnitAlive

JASS:
library_once IsPointInRectangle
    //determins if point P is in rectangle ABCD
    function IsPointInRectangle takes real ax, real ay, real bx, real by, real cx, real cy, real dx, real dy, real px, real py returns boolean
        local real cross0 = (py-ay)*(bx-ax)-(px-ax)*(by-ay)
        local real cross1 = (py-cy)*(ax-cx)-(px-cx)*(ay-cy)
        local real cross4 = (py-dy)*(ax-dx)-(px-dx)*(ay-dy)
       
        return ((cross0*cross1 >= 0) and (((py-by)*(cx-bx)-(px-bx)*(cy-by))*cross1 >= 0)) or ((cross0*cross4 >= 0) and (((py-by)*(dx-bx)-(px-bx)*(dy-by))*cross4 >= 0))

There are two spells, both create a trap when cast. One trap
preriodically electrocutes nearby enemies and explodes corpses,
the other links the traps and an orbiting particle with
a lightning that damages enemies.
Triggers[/COLOR]]
126248-albums6177-picture66521.png
  • The triggering is very good. No leaks, lag or noticeable bugs.
    Clean code.
126248-albums6177-picture66523.png
  • Arcane trap could factor in flying height of targets, filter them out
  • You could use GetLocationZ when you create the arcane lightning
Objects[/COLOR]]
126248-albums6177-picture66521.png

Solid work in this department. The only flaw I noticed is that there is a wrong
hotkey for learning Arcane Trap.
Effects[/COLOR]]
126248-albums6177-picture66521.png
  • The effects fit the spells and are not over the top.
126248-albums6177-picture66523.png
  • There could be a sound when the spell is cast.

Hmm.. This is nice:
JASS:
library_once IsPointInRectangle
    //determins if point P is in rectangle ABCD
    function IsPointInRectangle takes real ax, real ay, real bx, real by, real cx, real cy, real dx, real dy, real px, real py returns boolean
        local real cross0 = (py-ay)*(bx-ax)-(px-ax)*(by-ay)
        local real cross1 = (py-cy)*(ax-cx)-(px-cx)*(ay-cy)
        local real cross4 = (py-dy)*(ax-dx)-(px-dx)*(ay-dy)
       
        return ((cross0*cross1 >= 0) and (((py-by)*(cx-bx)-(px-bx)*(cy-by))*cross1 >= 0)) or ((cross0*cross4 >= 0) and (((py-by)*(dx-bx)-(px-bx)*(dy-by))*cross4 >= 0))
    endfunction
endlibrary
