i am working on a starcraft themed map and i have a firebat character who gets his splash attack from the Item Fire Orb ability(relevant info for ability 1). i have 2 abilities i want to make for him and need some help figuring out how to make them. im not looking for any one to make triggers for me :p i want o make them myself.

Immolate - All foes hit by the firebats attack(including those hit by the splash) take fire damage every second. This effect stacks up to 5 times and lasts 15 seconds.

Napalm - Firebat sprays area with napalm. area burns for 60 seconds. all foes who are in area take fire damage every second.

EDIT: Sorry posted this in wrong section by mistake. can someone move this to world editor help?
 
Napalm - A basic Flame Strike with modded art....

Immolate - A modded evenomed weapon skill I guess...

any idea how to mod flame strike? i have been playing with the data fields forever and i just don't understand what they do?

i dont think that will work with splash damage.
 
1: Art - Target

2: Then trigger it I guess...
 
it wont, envenomed spears is an orb.
you could make it that when the unit is hit give the attacked unit immolation, make mana cost 0, hide the icon somehow, make it affect himself and no1 else, and if u rly want u can use the model of pandas breath when a unit is drunk to make it look like he is on fire
 
1: Art - Target

i know that. i mean the data fields. how do i edit them to remove the initial damage. lengthen the burning patch duration, and the burning patch damage?

2: Then trigger it I guess...

How do i detect what units are being hit by my firebat and his splash. wont the attacked unit event only detect the primary target?

Data - Full Damage Dealt
 
ok i finally got Flame Strike working right for the napalm ability, but i am still lost as what to do for the immolate ability. using Permanent Immolation and set it to self only is a good start, but i still cant figure out how to apply to units hit by the firebats AOE attack.

  • No one is chatting at the moment.

    News portal has been retired. Main page of site goes to Headline News forum now
  • The Helper The Helper:
    I am working on getting access to the old news portal under a different URL for those that would rather use that for news before we get a different news view.
  • Ghan Ghan:
    Easily done

  • The Helper The Helper:
    https://www.thehelper.net/pages/news/ is a link to the old news portal - i will integrate it into the interface somewhere when i figure it out
  • Ghan Ghan:
    Need to try something
  • Ghan Ghan:
    Hopefully this won't cause problems.
  • Ghan Ghan:
    Hmm
  • Ghan Ghan:
    I have converted the Headline News forum to an Article type forum. It will now show the top 20 threads with more detail of each thread.
  • Ghan Ghan:
    See how we like that.
  • The Helper The Helper:
    I do not see a way to go past the 1st page of posts on the forum though
  • The Helper The Helper:
    It is OK though for the main page to open up on the forum in the view it was before. As long as the portal has its own URL so it can be viewed that way I do want to try it as a regular forum view for a while
  • Ghan Ghan:
    Yeah I'm not sure what the deal is with the pagination.
  • Ghan Ghan:
    It SHOULD be there so I think it might just be an artifact of having an older style.
  • Ghan Ghan:
    I switched it to a "Standard" article forum. This will show the thread list like normal, but the threads themselves will have the first post set up above the rest of the "comments"
  • The Helper The Helper:
    I don't really get that article forum but I think it is because I have never really seen it used on a multi post thread
  • Ghan Ghan:
    RpNation makes more use of it right now as an example: https://www.rpnation.com/news/

    What do you think Tom?
  • tom_mai78101 tom_mai78101:
    I will have to get used to this.
  • tom_mai78101 tom_mai78101:
    The latest news feed looks good
  • The Helper The Helper:
    I would like to see it again like Ghan had it the first time with pagination though - without the pagination that view will not work but with pagination it just might...
