How to destroy the timer?

[Komaqtion]

Anyone have an idea how to make it more efficient ???

EDIT: And by the way, how would i go about changing this:

>UnitDamageTarget(GetFilterUnit(), GetFilterUnit()
The units damage themselves. Kills won't register as the caster's?

So it's the caster that gets the kill ?

 

[kingkingyyk3]

Ops, you need a global integer to pass the struct.

 

[Komaqtion]

Can't say i get what you're saying there, kingkingyyk3 XD
Mind explaining, and/or giving me an example ???

 

[Rainther]

To make the caster damage the unit you'll have to transfer the caster as a variable into the condition, which I'm honestly not sure if it works or not. My method to go through this is

local group grp = GetUnitsInRangeOfLoc(...)
local integer i = CountUnitsInGroup(grp)
local unit u
loop
exitwhen i < 1
set u = GroupPickRandomUnit(grp)
if Conditions... then
Damage
call GroupAddUnit(grp, u)
endif
call GroupRemoveUnit(grp, u)
set i = i - 1
endloop

I skip the match units part.
May not be efficient, but it works

Thank you soo much kingkingyyk3 And

So true !!!!

And, just asking, but isn't it a bit unnecessary that this "small" spell uses 3 different systems ??? (KT2, TimerUtils and Timed Handles)
Is there a way i can use the stuff that Timed Handles are used for (Effects that are destroyed after some time, and with a callback maybe ) with own functions inside the spell ?

This is what i've tried to do, but i don't know how to continue :S

As i said, i'm trying to remove some effects after some time, and creating a efect when they get destroyed

You can throw away the TimerUtils.

 

[Komaqtion]

Thanks !!!!
Though, any thoughts on how i can make it create a special effect either when that effect is destroyed, or when the dummy expiration timer has ended and the dummies DIE ! XD ???

Please... It looks quite wierd when i can't specify the exact location where the special effects should appear and this would make it alot easier

 

[kingkingyyk3]

>>when the dummy expiration timer has ended and the dummies DIE
Use trigger.

>>a special effect either when that effect is destroyed
You may modify the Timed Handle.

 

[Komaqtion]

How would i modify Timed Handles to create that special effect then ????

 

[kingkingyyk3]

You may add callback at the Destroy function.

 

[Komaqtion]

How ??? Can't find that argument there :S

[Rainther]

Wait... are you adding a special effect through an other special effect?

 

[Komaqtion]

Well almost :S I'm trying to create a special effect at the point the dummies are when they die XD Just can't come up with how to do it

EDIT: Please take a look at the last post here too, the edit that is, i have no idea how to do that either XD
http://www.thehelper.net/forums/showthread.php?t=129614

 

[Rainther]

Concerning this... isn't it easier the to make a timer for each dummy and create the effect when the timer expires? start timer when you add experation timer and have same duration.

EDIT: Read that you're not a fish in the sea concerning Timers. I personally use TimerUtils for it.

 

[Komaqtion]

First, can i use KT2 ??
Second, still have no clue how to work with timer !

[Rainther]

I'm not the right person to answer that. I only know how ABC and TimerUtils works and how to use them.

 

[kingkingyyk3]

ABC is safer than TimerUtils as I know. ABC has handle protection that disable other handle with same id after hashing to access the table. It will store it in game cache when this kind of case happen(ABC v6).

I am busy now, later I will make a solution for it.
