Yet another spellpack :D
Not really very complicated spells.

1. Fan Of Shadow Strikes, Non-targettable AoE Shadow Strike

2. Magic Prison, Quite similar to DotA's Black Hole, Channeling, pulls enemy units towards the center. This was Fulla's request. :D

3. Warden's Stealth, Something like an aura of invisibility.

Notes:
1. The Magic Prison is not MUI because it runs on 4 triggers(Initiation,Pulling,Efx,Stopping).
2. Warden's Stealth needs a Gameplay Function ticked, I think its called "Invisible Units are able to receive auras"
3. The Magic Prison lags abit when there are many units being pulled, I'm not sure why, I think I fixed almost all leaks.

Give some feedback :D

Very nice! +Rep!

I do like the Fan Of Shadow Strikes not creative but sure is a unit killer :D
Can you do something about Warden's Stealth aura? She (And other units) will still auto-attack while being stealth. Not great when trying to hide :p.
But more colddown on it! 1.5 sec is way too fast. Why?
Try to; jump in (While in stealth) a bunch of footman. Casts Fan of Shadow Strikes. Run out again. I lose max 10 life one that :p.

Anyway very nice! :)

Code:
Set TargetGroup = (Units within 550.00 of DummyLoc matching (((((Matching unit) is dead) Equal to False) and ((Unit-type of (Matching unit)) Not equal to The Tauren)) and (((Matching unit) belongs to an enemy of (Owner of Caster)) Equal to True)))
That can "pull" structures :eek:

Other than that, its pretty cool. There are alot of un-needed variables that have been used though. For example:
Code:
[COLOR="Red"]Set Caster = (Triggering unit)[/COLOR]
Set CasterLoc = (Position of [COLOR="Red"]Caster[/COLOR])
You can save a whole line, and use 1 less variable there:
Code:
Set CasterLoc = (Position of [COLOR="Red"](Triggering unit)[/COLOR])

Also, another thing. You don't need to use the variable "TempGroup" unless you need to refer to it in another trigger. Just do it this way:
Code:
Custom script:   set bj_wantDestroyGroup = true
Unit Group - Pick every unit in (Units within (200.00 + (100.00 x (Real((Level of Fan Of Shadow Strikes  for (Triggering unit)))))) of CasterLoc matching ((((Matching unit) belongs to an enemy of (Owner of (Triggering unit))) Equal to True) and (((Matching unit) is alive) Equal to True)))
Here is the Fan of Shadow Strikes in its most simplified form (blue = a change):
Code:
Fan of ShadowStrikes
    Events
        Unit - A unit Starts the effect of an ability
    Conditions
        (Ability being cast) Equal to Fan Of Shadow Strikes 
    Actions
        [COLOR="RoyalBlue"]Set CasterLoc = (Position of (Triggering unit))[/COLOR]
        [COLOR="RoyalBlue"]Custom script:   set bj_wantDestroyGroup = true[/COLOR]
        [COLOR="RoyalBlue"]Unit Group - Pick every unit in (Units within (200.00 + (100.00 x (Real((Level of Fan Of Shadow Strikes  for (Triggering unit)))))) of CasterLoc matching ((((Matching unit) belongs to an enemy of (Owner of (Triggering unit))) Equal to True) and (((Matching unit) is alive) Equal to True)))[/COLOR] and do (Actions)
            Loop - Actions
                Unit - Create 1 Dummy Caster for [COLOR="RoyalBlue"](Owner of (Triggering unit))[/COLOR] at CasterLoc facing Default building facing degrees
                Unit - Add a 3.00 second Generic expiration timer to (Last created unit)
                Unit - Add ShadowStrikeDummy  to (Last created unit)
                Unit - Set level of ShadowStrikeDummy  for (Last created unit) to (Level of Fan Of Shadow Strikes  for [COLOR="RoyalBlue"](Triggering unit)[/COLOR])
                Unit - Order (Last created unit) to Night Elf Warden - Shadow Strike (Picked unit)
        Custom script:   call RemoveLocation (udg_CasterLoc)
I also removed the "TempPoint" variable, because the dummy will face the picked unit when it is ordered to shadow strike them anyway (you also save using a variable, and removing it).


Here is another one of your triggers, in the simplest form possible:
Code:
Wardens Stealth
    Events
        Time - Every 1.00 seconds of game time
    Conditions
    Actions
        Custom script:   set bj_wantDestroyGroup=true
        Unit Group - Pick every unit in (Units in (Entire map)) and do (Actions)
            Loop - Actions
                If (((Picked unit) has buff Warden's Stealth ) Equal to False) then do (Unit - Remove Invisibility  from (Picked unit)) else do (If ((Level of Invisibility  for (Picked unit)) Equal to 0) then do (Unit - Add Invisibility  to (Picked unit)) else do (Do nothing))
We just saved ourselves a heck of alot of lines there ^

Try to remove any un-needed variables in the Magic Prison trigger as well.

Other than all this, I thought the spellpack was a bit average compared to your others.. However, Magic Prison did look quite cool, and did do something cool. Wardens stealth was alright.... I wouldn't use it in any of my maps. Fan of SS was a bit simple as well. I didn't go *:eek:* when I first saw it.

Good job anyway :) +rep

>rest from DotA

The black hole isn't really a black hole, and there is no Invisibility aura in DotA, except the Invoker which was removed from DotA long ago.

Great spells btw :D

First of all I want to say: Nice spells! :)

Secondly I want to reply to Daxtreme: Quite true (I guess), however, there are heroes who can turn allied heroes invisible (Priestess of the Moon and the Treant, if I remember correctly.) -Just a side-note, there. :p

I think it's called "Invisible units bestow auras"
Hey! I can't believe there's someone who has the same idea to make a multi-target Shadow Strike. Too late for me though...
(good think I know this before I make it, or I'll be called copying)

  • No one is chatting at the moment.
  • The Helper The Helper:
    So what it really is me trying to implement some kind of better site navigation not change the whole theme of the site
  • Varine Varine:
    How can you tell the difference between real traffic and indexing or AI generation bots?
  • The Helper The Helper:
    The bots will show up as users online in the forum software but they do not show up in my stats tracking. I am sure there are bots in the stats but the way alot of the bots treat the site do not show up on the stats
  • Varine Varine:
    I want to build a filtration system for my 3d printer, and that shit is so much more complicated than I thought it would be
  • Varine Varine:
    Apparently ABS emits styrene particulates which can be like .2 micrometers, which idk if the VOC detectors I have can even catch that
  • Varine Varine:
    Anyway I need to get some of those sensors and two air pressure sensors installed before an after the filters, which I need to figure out how to calculate the necessary pressure for and I have yet to find anything that tells me how to actually do that, just the cfm ratings
  • Varine Varine:
    And then I have to set up an arduino board to read those sensors, which I also don't know very much about but I have a whole bunch of crash course things for that
  • Varine Varine:
    These sensors are also a lot more than I thought they would be. Like 5 to 10 each, idk why but I assumed they would be like 2 dollars
  • Varine Varine:
    Another issue I'm learning is that a lot of the air quality sensors don't work at very high ambient temperatures. I'm planning on heating this enclosure to like 60C or so, and that's the upper limit of their functionality
  • Varine Varine:
    Although I don't know if I need to actually actively heat it or just let the plate and hotend bring the ambient temp to whatever it will, but even then I need to figure out an exfiltration for hot air. I think I kind of know what to do but it's still fucking confusing
  • The Helper The Helper:
    Maybe you could find some of that information from AC tech - like how they detect freon and such
  • Varine Varine:
    That's mostly what I've been looking at
  • Varine Varine:
    I don't think I'm dealing with quite the same pressures though, at the very least its a significantly smaller system. For the time being I'm just going to put together a quick scrubby box though and hope it works good enough to not make my house toxic
  • Varine Varine:
    I mean I don't use this enough to pose any significant danger I don't think, but I would still rather not be throwing styrene all over the air

    I bitch about Xenforo sometimes but it really is full featured you just have to really know what you are doing to get the most out of it.
  • The Helper The Helper:
    It is just not easy to fix styles and customize but it definitely can be done
  • The Helper The Helper:
    I do know this - xenforo dropped the ball by not keeping the vbulletin reputation comments as a feature. The loss of the Reputation comments data when we switched to Xenforo really was the death knell for the site when it came to all the users that left. I know I missed it so much and I got way less interested in the site when that feature was gone and I run the site.
