it doesnt require you to stay casting the ability nor makes the unit invulnerable, how to do that?

Creating a custom impale isn't as hard as it sounds. You just create a line of effects and pick enemy units in the area, stun them and set their flying height to make them go up and down.

Units are paused in the air. Stun and damage is dealt after they hit the ground.

dummy unit to cast impale at that position/target?

just base it off something that can target the ground or unit, eg. shockwave with no projectile and damage or sumthn..

ok thanks guys btw i wanted it on gui xD w/e ty

lol my suggestion is do-able in gui, il give an example code later.

---

ok here it is:

Trigger:
  • events
    • unit begins casting an ability
    • conditions
    • (ability is ##) [your custom impale ability]
    • actions
    • unit - create dummy unit at (position of (casting unit))
    • unit - give (last created unit) ability: impale [default impale ability, just change the damage/length/remove mana cost]
    • unit - order (last created unit) to cast (impale) on (target of ability being cast)
    • unit - add ex*** timer of 2 seconds to (last created unit) [sorry i forgot the word]


everything in [] brackets are just comments and not part of the code.

note: you must remove the damage and animation from your custom ability.

*you may edit it as u wish so that it suits your hero*

lol ok its not dota perfect. who do u think i am? Icefrog? :/

well it'l work for what he wants to do, and even if u want it that way u could just make them go into the air, and change the ground below them, ag its not too hard. just takes reli long.. but it doesn't have to be exactly like dota's one. this one is stil instant and alot smoother than the default. so yeah u can use it if u want, if u dont wana itz kwl.

Erm, no. Your impale still makes the units invulnerable. This is what the TS wanted.

Only way to do it is to create an impale system, which was mentioned above.

apologies, ddnt read the first post properly lol.

or any of the others :/

haha ag yea just set there height, custom stuns and do some art.

soz, owel mine stil is an "instant-impale" which can be used to get rid of that casting animation. thats what i thot he meant when i saw the heading "DotA Impale?", cos in Dota they are instant lol.

    Crazy how much 3d printing has come in the last few years. Sad that it's not as easily modifiable though
  • Varine Varine:
    I bought an Ender 3 during the pandemic and tinkered with it all the time. Just bought a Sovol, not as easy. I'm trying to make it use a different nozzle because I have a fuck ton of Volcanos, and they use what is basically a modified volcano that is just a smidge longer, and almost every part on this thing needs to be redone to make it work
  • Varine Varine:
    Luckily I have a 3d printer for that, I guess. But it's ridiculous. The regular volcanos are 21mm, these Sovol versions are about 23.5mm
  • Varine Varine:
    So, 2.5mm longer. But the thing that measures the bed is about 1.5mm above the nozzle, so if I swap it with a volcano then I'm 1mm behind it. So cool, new bracket to swap that, but THEN the fan shroud to direct air at the part is ALSO going to be .5mm to low, and so I need to redo that, but by doing that it is a little bit off where it should be blowing and it's throwing it at the heating block instead of the part, and fuck man
  • Varine Varine:
    I didn't realize they designed this entire thing to NOT be modded. I would have just got a fucking Bambu if I knew that, the whole point was I could fuck with this. And no one else makes shit for Sovol so I have to go through them, and they have... interesting pricing models. So I have a new extruder altogether that I'm taking apart and going to just design a whole new one to use my nozzles. Dumb design.
  • Varine Varine:
    Can't just buy a new heatblock, you need to get a whole hotend - so block, heater cartridge, thermistor, heatbreak, and nozzle. And they put this fucking paste in there so I can't take the thermistor or cartridge out with any ease, that's 30 dollars. Or you can get the whole extrudor with the direct driver AND that heatblock for like 50, but you still can't get any of it to come apart
  • Varine Varine:
    Partsbuilt has individual parts I found but they're expensive. I think I can get bits swapped around and make this work with generic shit though
