problem

1st , ur sleep skill is different from the default Undead Dreadlord Sleep spell
2ndly, will only probably make one units sleep even if it worked... cause u need to pick all units within ____ radius/area/watsoever of target point of ability , then cast sleeping spell... u can either , use jass to cast ( which i dunno how) or edit the default sleep spell to ur likings

 

[Tubba]

No, he refers to the skill added to the unit there.


But yes, I assume you based it off Rain of Fire or Flamestrike or something, you need a radius.

>but i did it with my other skill (Mountain King- Stormbolt) and it worked even if its not the same but it was based from it

>well correct me if im wrong but the amt of AOE is dependent on the AOE amt of Mass Sleep which i based from tranquility

 

[Tubba]

Tranquility doesn't have a target.

 

[Manee]

but its AOE

 

[Tubba]

Doesn't matter. It's an "Order with no target".

See the red highlighted part..there is no picked unit...

ok so i've changed it into Target unit of ability being cast

but its still non-functional

what should i do?

>Doesn't matter. It's an "Order with no target".

what should i base it on?

 

[Vnbear]

I missed out the part on:

Unit - Create 1 Sleep Dummy for (Owner of (Triggering unit)) at (Position of (Picked unit)) facing 0.00 degrees

Change that also.

 

[Manee]

it still is non-fuctional

 

[Vnbear]

What did you based your spell from?

 

[Manee]

tranquility but i've tried starfall too yet the results are still the same

Mass Sleep
    Events
        Unit - A unit Starts the effect of an ability
    Conditions
        (Ability being cast) Equal to Mass Sleep
    Actions
     Unit Group- Pick Every Units within (AOE range) of Triggering unit and do multiple actions:
                Unit - Create 1 Sleep Dummy for (Owner of (Triggering unit)) at (Position of (Picked unit)) facing 0.00 degrees
                Unit - Add Sleep to (Last created unit)
                Unit - Set Level of Sleep for (Last created unit) to (Level of Mass Sleep for (Triggering unit))
                Unit - Order (Last created unit) to Undead Dreadlord - Sleep (Picked unit)             
                 Unit - Add a 1.50 second Generic expiration timer to (Last created unit)
            Else-Actions

Try this and use picked unit for these..the sleep will not be casted if the targeted unit is mech or structure automatically.

ok so my trigger now is:

Mass Sleep
    Events
        Unit - A unit Starts the effect of an ability
    Conditions
        (Ability being cast) Equal to Mass Sleep
    Actions
     Unit Group- Pick Every unit in (Units within 700 of (Position of (Triggering unit))) and do actions:
           Loop-Actions
                Unit - Create 1 Sleep Dummy for (Owner of (Triggering unit)) at (Position of (Picked unit)) facing 0.00 degrees
                Unit - Add Sleep to (Last created unit)
                Unit - Set Level of Sleep for (Last created unit) to (Level of Mass Sleep for (Triggering unit))
                Unit - Order (Last created unit) to Undead Dreadlord - Sleep (Picked unit)             
                 Unit - Add a 1.50 second Generic expiration timer to (Last created unit)

this trigger is still non-fuctional =(

Try basing ur spell off taunt?
So when u click that spell, it auto casts to units 700 aoe around you.
If it still doesnt work, then something isnt right with your sleep spell or that the dummy caster got no mana to cast that spell!!!

my dummy unit has no mana but the sleep skill has no mana cost either
(i sense some irritation in your reply)

 

[Vnbear]

can u please post your map then please? very hard to see where went wrong..

P.S. I get back to you tomorrow or hopefully others can solve your problem. I need to sleep now.

 

[Sinan2]

Well, maybe it overwrites triggering unit, you should try to add the casting unit into a variable,say... set Caster[Owner of Casting Unit]=Casting Unit
and use Caster[Owner of Casting Unit] instead of triggering unit.

 

[Ashcat]

The only reason that this spell should not be working is that something is wrong with your sleep spell.

Go to the object editor, and double check all the values in your dummy sleep spell; mana cost, casting range, requirements, ect.

If it still doesnt work then say so and ill make a map with a working mass sleep and you can just copy/paste the trigger.
