Basic Sliding Trigger

[Raizn]

Hi Helpers,

i got stuck on a spell cause i dont exactly know how to slide dummies to a point. could anybody explain me the basics and how to set the movement for several dummies. (like a loop for 10 dummies + facing angle movement)

bye

Here's the basic concept of it:

• Hash Init
  • Events
    • Map initialization
  • Conditions
  • Actions
    • Hashtable - Create a hashtable
    • Set TempHash = (Last created hashtable)

• Spell Event
  • Events
    • Unit - A unit Starts the effect of an ability
  • Conditions
    • (Ability being cast) Equal to Your Ability
  • Actions
    • Set TempInt = ((Level of (Ability being cast) for (Triggering unit)) x 100)
    • Set TempPoint = (Position of (Triggering unit))
    • For each (Integer A) from 1 to 10, do (Actions)
      • Loop - Actions
        • Unit - Create 1 Dummy Caster for (Owner of (Triggering unit)) at TempPoint facing (Facing of (Triggering unit)) degrees
        • Hashtable - Save TempInt as 1 of Key (Last created Unit) in TempHash
        • Unit Group - Add (Last created unit) to Periodic_Group
    • Custom script: call RemoveLocation(udg_TempPoint)

• Periodic Move
  • Events
    • Time - Every 0.03 seconds of game time
  • Conditions
  • Actions
    • Unit Group - Pick every unit in Periodic_Group and do (Actions)
      • Loop - Actions
        • Set TempPoint = (Position of (Picked unit))
        • Set TempPoint2 = (TempPoint offset by 5.00 towards (Facing of (Picked unit)) degrees)
        • Unit - Move (Picked unit) instantly to TempPoint2
        • Custom script: call RemoveLocation(udg_TempPoint2)
        • Custom script: call RemoveLocation(udg_TempPoint)
        • Hashtable - Save ((Load 1 of Key (Picked unit) from TempHash) - 5) as 1 of 0 in TempHash
        • If (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions)
          • If - Conditions
            • (Load 1 of Key (Picked unit) from TempHash) Less than or equal to 0
          • Then - Actions
            • Hashtable - Clear all child hashtables of child Key (Picked unit) in TempHash
            • Unit Group - Remove (Picked unit) from Periodic_Group
            • Unit - Remove (Picked unit) from the game
          • Else - Actions

This will move 10 dummies (Though in the same line XD) 100/200/300 range forward from the caster over 0.6/1.2/1.8 seconds

Though this will not damage units or anything like that, but that is easy to add

to make it look like a nova i only got to change the facing angle of the dummy right ?
