Spell Contest #4 | Theme: Physical Abilities | Deadline: 18th March

[emjlr3]

enough people can code now a days, that i think its a lots less about what you script, and more about the idea and how its implemented - which I have never been top notch in doing - and if you look at the history- spell contest 2 I did not even place, and spell contest 3 I scored 2nd

 

[baassee]

You can still join this? I'm probably in.

> wish the theme were a bit more narrow however, almost like walking into a department store and saying "Pick a shirt", w/o knowing who you are buying for - just a bit overwhelming with respect for the possibilities
Others say the complete opposite.

> Would it be acceptable if a unit hammered a mine into the floor?
...Self destruct?

> Aww sh*t, good game guys, emjlr3 is doing it.

Yes, you can. You still have 10 days.

Assuming he activates it after he's finished.

WIP pic, currently 473 lines of code, including comments and configs. - I pity the fool who has to read it all

 

[Accname]

and what exactly does that WiP show? exept for colours, plenty of them.

 

[HydraRancher]

I updated my submission so little peasants also activate mines.

thats about the extent of it - posting too much more might give it away entirely

 

[HydraRancher]

Just a question, is my spell valid? I still have 3 days to correct it.


Contest ending soon.

It'll do. It's not quite what I was thinking when I meant physical, but I don't want to disqualify anyone over a misunderstanding.

 

[baassee]

Oh yeah I got an idea. Putting it into action with one day left!

When I thought of it, the idea was so funny I just felt like making it. Physical Abilities for me is too vague. And too limited.

 

[Accname]

I can see most of the submissions going a similar way, the "multistrike" alike abilities are coming.

 

[Jedi]

I will slam you with my shield!I hate this theme, I will slam it too!!!
I think I made the contest's most booring spell.

 

[baassee]

Finished about 80% today. Now I'm all tired. I will submit tomorrow.

 

[Romek]

4 hours and 30 minutes remaining.

Edit: I'll close the threads in the morning tomorrow.

 

[baassee]

Nice that the spell bugs with almost an hour left. Stupid JASS, why won't it compile right.

EDIT:

Oh yes I found it, stupid radians.

EDIT2:

Nope not the radians.

EDIT3:

Seems that I'm out of the contest. The bug just won't go away. It's a movement that will not work and it's pretty essential to the whole spell.

Well I can atleast post my idea.

Calls for an airstrike from above. After 3 seconds of channeling, an airplane will travel across the sky, releasing its fury at random spots at the ground below dealing damage to nearby enemies. When an enemy is strucked by a projectile, the unit will have reduced armor for a short period of time.
Each projectile has an aoe of 85.
The total aoe of targeting is 400 around the airplane.
The airplane travles for 800 units.

Level 1 - 65 damage each projectile. -1 armor reduction. 15 projectiles.
Level 2 - 75 damage each projectile. -2 armor reduction. 30 projectiles.
Level 3 - 85 damage each projectile. -3 armor reduction. 45 projectiles.
Level 4 - 95 damage each projectile. -4 armor reduction. 60 projectiles.

 

[NeuroToxin]

baassee upload it, or put the code in JASS thread, we'd be happy to help. Btw, its not against the rules to do that.

 

[Accname]

but i think the concept of calling an airplane is not within the theme of a "physical" spell. will be disqualified i guess.

Merely thought so. But I thought these hooks, swords, jumps, hits were too old school
