yet another knockback spell

[I still need help!] yet another knockback spell

i need a knockback spell that uses the Damage detection system, which will 100% of attacks (Passive SPell) will do a tiny 50 push to units, but not a stun, i need it sort of like "Warlocks" where the unit can still cast spells or move around and attack.

if anyone can do this for me i would very much appreciate it

Quite literally exactly what you're looking for.

i like it, so do i just import all those triggers?



EDIT: why is it that syntax check shows up to have like, the whole trigger is full of errors?

(Im using JNGP but i can't do anything to the triggers)

 

[Cokemonkey11]

yes you just copy it.


It's using vJass, so the syntax button will give tons of errors. Just save it, I'm assuming there won't be any errors then.

I made a huge ugly "hashtable" (function) of units that deal piercing damage, since there's no way to get them from object editor data, so you can modify that trigger to make it faster or affect more units.

Glad you like,

 

[Just_Spectating]

ok cool, but is there anyway to reduce the knockback amount?



EDIT: Also, i only wanted 1 unit to be able to knockback, or maybe whomever has the abillity of a knockback

1: change this line:

set tempDat.power=R2I(power)

to

set tempDat.power=R2I(power/<anything>)

2: add a condition into the ddkb trigger.

 

[Just_Spectating]

sorry to bother u again, but, im kind of a nub in jass, and i don't want to mess up the trigger, so where exactly would i need to put the condition in the script?

 

[Cokemonkey11]

Change

    private function i takes nothing returns nothing
        set tDDKB=CreateTrigger()
        call TriggerAddAction(tDDKB,function a)
    endfunction
endscope

to

    private function c takes nothing returns boolean
        return GetUnitTypeId(GetAttacker())=='hpea' //replace peasant with unit xyz rawcode.
    endfunction
    
    private function i takes nothing returns nothing
        set tDDKB=CreateTrigger()
        call TriggerAddCondition(t,Condition(function c))
        call TriggerAddAction(tDDKB,function a)
    endfunction
endscope

 

[Just_Spectating]

Its not workin,

when i try to save, the "found errors" box comes up, and when that happens, my WE just freezes.

 

[Cokemonkey11]

wtf? I reread my changes, I don't see anything wrong. Maybe I'm retarded.

 

[Just_Spectating]

hopefully someone can shed some light T_T

 

[Just_Spectating]

Bump

I will post my map,

which is quite literally nothing but your trigger with the modifications and a couple units to test it out.

which is making me mad

 

[Cokemonkey11]

1.24 broke my JNGP, so there's not much I can do

 

[Just_Spectating]

aw man...

then i still need a system.

 

[Just_Spectating]

bump

bump

In the ddkb trigger, at the bottom, change call TriggerAddCondition(t,Condition(function c)) to call TriggerAddCondition(tDDKB,Condition(function c)).

Well, that gets it to compile, but no units are being knockbacked. I'll have to look further into the code to solve that...

 

[Just_Spectating]

cool, i hope you can fix it

 

[Sophismata]

That trigger is never called. You don't have an event.

 

[Cokemonkey11]

Because just spectating only posted 1 of the 5 or something triggers in the system. Look at it on my linked page. You gotta copy the whole folder.

 

[maskedpoptart]

Gah, it was so simple. In trigger ddkb, function "c", replace GetUnitTypeId(GetAttacker()) with GetUnitTypeId(GetEventDamageSource()). The event was EVENT_UNIT_DAMAGED, so we have to get the damage source, not the attacking unit.

 

[Just_Spectating]

awesome man, ur the best

 

[maskedpoptart]

You are very welcome.

 

[Just_Spectating]

i have another question.

i want a certain damage type not to knock back, Fire damage.

can you help me?

 

[Cokemonkey11]

There's no way to get a unit's damage type, which is why I had to make that huge ugly hashtableish trigger.

How many units are there that do fire damage, out of curiosity?

 

[Just_Spectating]

it was a trigger that deals fire dmg, but i don't need it any more so thanks anyway
