Evasion aura

[Potatisbil]

I was wondering if its possible to make an aura out of evasion...
I've already made the trigger, except for the event...
I tried using "a unit comes within range of <unit>", but i can only select a premade unit.... Any help would be useful

EDIT : i also wonder if there is an event like..."A unit gets outside X range of unit"

Thank you

making an aura isn't that easy. first of all there is no event that detects when a unit leaves range and there is no "clean" way to use comes within range (the only method to use it for units that aren't preplaced is with Trigger - Add Event which can cause a real mess).
the best way would be to use vexorian's spell factory. it has a very easy to configure template for an aura which you might find very useful

use another aura, exemple Devotion aura, but remove the effect, let the buff and rename it to Evasion aura (The buff).

Now, do this

Learn Evasion aura
   Events
      Unit - A unit learns a skill
   Conditions
      (Learned hero skill) Equal to Evasion Aura
   Actions
      Trigger - Turn on Evasion Aura <gen>

Evasion aura (INITIALLY OFF)
   Events
      Time - Every 0.25 seconds of game-time
   Conditions
   Actions
      Set Leak_UnitGroup = ((Units in (Entire map) matching (Matching unit) has buff Evasion Aura) Equal to True)
      Unit Group - Pick every units in Leak_UnitGroup and do (Actions)
          Loop - Actions
              Unit - Add Evasion to (Picked unit)
      Set Leak_UnitGroup2 = ((Units in (Entire map) matching (Matching unit) has buff Evasion Aura) Equal to False)
          Loop - Actions
              Unit - Remove Evasion from (Picked unit)
      Custom script:   call DestroyGroup(udg_Leak_UnitGroup)
      Custom script:   call DestroyGroup(udg_Leak_UnitGroup2)

Why not just give the Evasion spell graphics...like the aura of your choice for graphics, and it will have an evasion %...


Hope this helps,

I fear I don't get what you mean there.

Since when do spell graphics add evasion %???

 

[Knights]

I meant...you know the evasion spell?

Add caster graphics to it, for an aura, then give it an AoE.


I think that would work...

Since the buff doesn't show (and that is a problem for a unit?), you will have to fix that, then to test the map.

Arrrg! Looks like someone beat me to that idea! Well, I guess that's what I get for doing nothing....
