    Fighters and Jets

    What's a good unit or way to make fighters and jets? I'm working on a history project and I need to show air craft battles but I'm not sure how to make them "dog-fight", i.e. go forward, but shoot in the same motion and then circle around. I could completely trigger it but that seems like more...

    For mundane functions, is it still better to use JASS?

    (Not sure if this is the right forum...) I'm planning on putting a lot of work into learning JASS after the holidays. I'm currently beginning a project that I will need to use JASS for eventually. I'm curious though, are simple functions like setting up the game still noticeably better in...

    How to Create an Ability to Give Units a Chance to Miss on Attack

    Definitely Critical Strike with a chance to do 0% damage. The only downside is that it says "0!" when you miss, but it personally doesn't bother me.

    Best way to do a "cover" skill?

    That would probably be the best way. Don't know why I didn't think of it... Thanks!

    Best way to do a "cover" skill?

    What would be the best way to make a skill where a unit can "take cover" behind an object for extra defense / whatever? Is there a simple trigger / skill that I can use or would I have to make a whole system for this? I was considering (and still am) using Mechanical Form and forcing the player...

    Need help with an Aimed Shot skill :p

    I do not believe so. Why didn't you test it before coming onto the forum in asking? Give it a try. EDIT: Well it might actually. Still try it.

    Need help with an Aimed Shot skill :p

    You could just use Stormbolt with a 3 second casting time if you don't care about the short stun... Plus it would have a projectile.

    Destructive Dragons

    The spelling and grammar in this topic is appalling. And this game idea sounds incredibly boring. Convince me I want to play this game because right now I will not.

    Tomfoolery and the Ruse

    Unfortunately he has us all mystified and wanting more, which is by design the objective. Otherwise this would be dead in the water be it even started.

    I want to trigger a unit to cast an ability when it's created

    Breath of Fire... You are most likely looking at Issue Order with No Target. Look for targeting a point.

    Missile (line)

    Doesn't the upgrade Vorpal Blades do exactly what you want? Use that if it does.

    JASS Classroom

    Gals I understand we shouldn't be given the direct answers to whatever the problems he will give us are, but hell some of us have never even TRIED a JASS trigger and we expected to make one from scratch and fix the errors of another? It wouldn't serve me well to start asking "How do you start...

    Esb, I feel the exact same way. I even voiced my thoughts a page or two back. I haven't had the time for assignment 2, I'll get it in someday.

    That sounds great, it just was a foreboding I had, twas all. Thanks for clearing that up.
