Blink Strike, gold from creeps

[DrakonStar]

Just a few quick questions:

1.How do I make a blink strike skill?
2.How do I make non-neutral creeps give gold upon death, with no triggers?

and

3. Using triggers, how do I make a skill deduct the user's HP?

base the blink strike from channel or any other targetable spell (but don't base it from blink xd since its a completely different spell)

e: unit starts the effect of an ability
c: ability being cast equal to blink strike
a: set caster = position of triggering unit
   set target = position of target unit of ability being cast
   set blink_pos = target offset by 150 towards angle between caster and target degrees
   move triggering unit instantly to blink_pos facing target
   order triggering unit to attack target
   cause triggering unit to damage target dealing x damage
   call RemoveLocation(udg_caster)
   call RemoveLocation(udg_target)
   call RemoveLocation(udg_blink_pos)

I know the answer to your second question:

In the trigger editor you can add the action "Player - set flag: Turn Gives Bounty On" to cause a player to give bounty rewards to whoever kills their units. Alternatively, you can use some kind of calculation based on their max hp and give them gold manually if you only want certain units to give gold.

Hope this helps

Can you expand on this please?

Those triggers suck. No offence, but make it like this. Base the spell of Chain Lightning with 0 DMG no effects and everything to 0, cast range set it on how much u want... Do this trigger:

Blink Strike

    Events
        Unit - A unit Starts the effect of an ability
    Conditions
        (Ability being cast) Equal to Blink Strike 
    Actions
        Set Blink_Strike_Units[1] = (Triggering unit)
        Set Blink_Strike_Units[2] = (Target unit of ability being cast)
        Set Blink_Strike_Point = (Position of Blink_Strike_Units[2])
        Special Effect - Create a special effect attached to the chest of Blink_Strike_Units[1] using Abilities\Spells\NightElf\Blink\BlinkTarget.mdl
        Set BS_Effects[1] = (Last created special effect)
        Wait 0.03 seconds
        Special Effect - Create a special effect attached to the chest of Blink_Strike_Units[1] using Abilities\Spells\NightElf\Blink\BlinkTarget.mdl
        Set BS_Effects[2] = (Last created special effect)
        If (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions)
            If - Conditions
                (Blink_Strike_Units[2] belongs to an enemy of (Owner of Blink_Strike_Units[1])) Equal to True
            Then - Actions
                Unit - Move Blink_Strike_Units[1] instantly to Blink_Strike_Point
                Unit - Cause Blink_Strike_Units[1] to damage Blink_Strike_Units[2], dealing (25.00 + (25.00 x (Real((Level of Blink Strike  for Blink_Strike_Units[1]))))) damage of attack type Chaos and damage type Universal
                Unit - Order Blink_Strike_Units[1] to Attack Blink_Strike_Units[2]
                Floating Text - Create floating text that reads ((String((25 + (25 x (Level of Blink Strike  for Blink_Strike_Units[1]))))) + !) above Blink_Strike_Units[2] with Z offset 0.00, using font size 12.00, color (100.00%, 0.00%, 0.00%), and 0.00% transparency
                Set Blink_Strike_Text[1] = (Last created floating text)
                Floating Text - Set the velocity of (Last created floating text) to 64.00 towards 90.00 degrees

            Else - Actions

Thank you very very much.

Hey im having trouble damaging the unit. Also I would prefer if we dont have to use variables because that screws up the trigger if more then 1 unit casts the same spell.



I've tried many different events to start the trigger but all of them seem to either "forget" to damage the target or to skip the trigger entirely. Help please.

 

[neo34rd]

Nvm guys, I've moved the damage bit of the trigger higher up. Now it damages properly!
