if someone played gem td, that fire tower with Immolation got a ability that show up a circle on how long range the Immolation has, looking for a model simulary too that one, if it is a model they are using.

any idea someone?

else i'm looking for some way to show up the range of a unit has.
like if an arrow tower have 600 range on his attack, it will show up a circle around it with a diameter of 600 around the tower.
 
You could use the selection size circle, but you'll have to test to find out what scale matches what range. That will probably take some time to get...
 
thats exactly what i dont want to do -.-.
1. takes alot of time.
2. not 100% sur that it will be exact.

is there any other way to make it show up 300/400/500 etc etc range around a unit?
 
find out how much range a grid square is? then make a dummy aura unit and try match its size with the grid, ingame give it locust and set it at the position of the tower?
 
Trigger:
  • Range indicator
    • Events
      • Unit - A unit Starts the effect of an ability
    • Conditions
      • (Ability being cast) Equal to (==) You Range Checker Ability
      • (Unit-type of (Triggering unit)) Equal to (==) Your unit you want the range checked (You need one trigger for every unit setting the range of the unit each time
    • Actions
      • Do Multiple ActionsFor each (Integer A) from 1 to 10, do (Actions)
        • Loop - Actions
          • Set temppooint = (Position of (Triggering unit))
          • Unit - Create 1 Dummy unit for (Owner of (Triggering unit)) at (temppooint offset by unit range towards (36.00 x (Real((Integer A)))) degrees) facing Default building facing (270.0) degrees
          • Unit - Add a 10.00 second Summoned Unit expiration timer to (Last created unit)
      • Custom script: call RemoveLocation(udg_temppooint)


Your going to want a dummy unit with locust that is some sort of indicator.

    News portal has been retired. Main page of site goes to Headline News forum now
  • The Helper The Helper:
    I am working on getting access to the old news portal under a different URL for those that would rather use that for news before we get a different news view.
  • Ghan Ghan:
    Easily done

  • The Helper The Helper:
    https://www.thehelper.net/pages/news/ is a link to the old news portal - i will integrate it into the interface somewhere when i figure it out
  • Ghan Ghan:
    Need to try something
  • Ghan Ghan:
    Hopefully this won't cause problems.
  • Ghan Ghan:
    Hmm
  • Ghan Ghan:
    I have converted the Headline News forum to an Article type forum. It will now show the top 20 threads with more detail of each thread.
  • Ghan Ghan:
    See how we like that.
  • The Helper The Helper:
    I do not see a way to go past the 1st page of posts on the forum though
  • The Helper The Helper:
    It is OK though for the main page to open up on the forum in the view it was before. As long as the portal has its own URL so it can be viewed that way I do want to try it as a regular forum view for a while
  • Ghan Ghan:
    Yeah I'm not sure what the deal is with the pagination.
  • Ghan Ghan:
    It SHOULD be there so I think it might just be an artifact of having an older style.
  • Ghan Ghan:
    I switched it to a "Standard" article forum. This will show the thread list like normal, but the threads themselves will have the first post set up above the rest of the "comments"
  • The Helper The Helper:
    I don't really get that article forum but I think it is because I have never really seen it used on a multi post thread
  • Ghan Ghan:
    RpNation makes more use of it right now as an example: https://www.rpnation.com/news/

    What do you think Tom?
  • tom_mai78101 tom_mai78101:
    I will have to get used to this.
  • tom_mai78101 tom_mai78101:
    The latest news feed looks good
  • The Helper The Helper:
    I would like to see it again like Ghan had it the first time with pagination though - without the pagination that view will not work but with pagination it just might...
