Help with one skill

[dls]

Hi I am new in world edit and helper. Need help with one skill for my star ships. If I want to click on the skill to fly ship one way, others players can´t see ship, so that consume lumber and very fast speed. This is that hyperspace for ship. Hehe

 

[Ayanami]

Welcome to The Helper Forums!

Let me get it right. You're trying to make the ship invisible but consumes gold and lumber over time?

 

[dls]

If ship reaches level for example 6 player learn skill and skill is hyperspace. If click on the skill player click anywhere on the map and ship fast move in this place with invisible and consume lumber. Sorry for my English

 

[crazyfanatic]

you need a trigger for taking gold and lumber, but the invisible thing can be done by using wind walk.

 

[crazyfanatic]

or make it with shockwave with unlimited range, then add with trigger the invisibility skill and create a dummy casting bloodlust to the unit, increasing speed. Then issue mive and make a trigger that removes the buffs when another issue is given.

 

[Joccaren]

Base it off wind walk (This won't give you the move to point, the unit will have to be ordered by the player to move to that point) and use this trigger:

Event: Every 1 seconds of game time
Conditions:
Actions: Pick every Unit in Playable map area matching: '(Matching Unit) has (Your Buff) equal to true' and do actions:
Loop:
Set (Owner of (Picked Unit))'s current lumber to (Owner of (Picked Unit))'s current lumber - (Your Value)

he wants to set target with his ability, ww just uses a target dependant by the position and facing angle.

 

[dls]

It needn´t invisible , it can be invulnerable.

 

[crazyfanatic]

then the casual shockwavw works, maybe you can make it like dota's faceless void time walk skill without the colours fading

 

[Joccaren]

1. Not everyone plays DotA, explain what the spell does.
2. Use this Trigger as-well then:

Event: Unit begins the effects of an ability
Conditions: ability being cast equal to (Your Ability)
Actions: Order (Triggering unit) to move to (Target Point of ability being cast)

 

[dls]

ok when i come at home I test it . Thanks you :thup:

 

[crazyfanatic]

time walk is an ability, that makes you black and invulnerable, dashing to a point with very high movespeed /about 1500-2000 without seeing lag/ then returns your colours and makes you vulnerable.

 

[Joccaren]

A problem with using shockwave is the moving of the unit to the location. If it can move to anywhere on the map, this will be near impossible to time correctly. You could say 'Wait 5 seconds' but then, if they almost next to them, they will cast it and then wiat 5 seconds before appearing there. If you say 'wait 1 second', they could target the other end of the map move there before the shockwave reaches them. Any of these would really screw up the animations.

 

[crazyfanatic]

the trick is that the unit is paused during the move, you just move it every .01 seconds 15 units fwd, then check if the unit is at the target location, if so, unpause and other stuff, turn off periodic trigger, etc, else just continue moving.

The fade dummy and group is basically an extra eye candy I made for the spell. Leaves behind a trail of yourself. Hope this helps.

Yeah, but then how do you check how much lumber to remove each second and actually remove it each second?

Using Wind walk with my two triggers + one more to check when it reaches its target location then remove the buffs is an easy way of doing this.

Edit: Not refering to your method Glenphir, haven't checked yours yet but prob works

 

[crazyfanatic]

just remove lumber periodically, set the casting position and current position and remove lumber for distance travelled.

Edited my codes and map. Now it does check for gold and removes gold.

 

[crazyfanatic]

well thats the easyest part of it, isn't it?

 

[Joccaren]

Not always
