You don't need to bump approved resources BRUTAL :p .
Unless you make an update or something of the like ;) !

A simple bug where if you cast 2 of them at the same spot at different times, you will end up with the 2nd one not being a ice trap, you can then walk right through it.

I would like to test the spell, but neither the gui version nor the vjass works :(

I do have jassnewgenpack, all my other maps can be tested and all, just these two not ! :banghead:

When I hit testmap I get to the startscreen, anyone knows a solution?

Save the map first, then hit testmap.

Updated.
Now requires GT and KT2; all included in the map.
Made code shorter and more efficient.
Fixed the stupid bug that was pointed out.

Recycling dummy units would make your spell even more efficient.

Well, a struct with a dummy inside works just fine. When the struct is created, check if the dummy is null or not. If so, create a new dummy.

Instead of removing dummies, you should 'release' them. Which means hiding them or something.

great spell. got a bump for you.
unit apply timed life did not work so well. i edited the spell to include the dummy unit in the struct. it is unit .a instead of local unit u. it's also different in other ways...but that's the main part of the spell that probably ought to be updated. you could ignore my customization of preventing blinking out of the circle.
JASS:
// Ice Trap by BRUTAL.
// Requires GT, and KT2.
// Credits are welcome but not necessary.
// October 12th 2009.
//
// Modified to be Fire Barrier for Valkyrie Hero by SanKakU
// My memories are a little fuzzy of the Xena episodes but
// from what i remember, Odin's top blonde valkyrie cursed
// Gabrielle by putting her in a fire trap much like this one.
// In further research it can be found that in the tv show
// Bleach, the Captain Commander Yamamoto uses an ability
// like this.
//
// the spell now enables countering of escape spells.

You realize that, UnitApplyTimedLife works perfectly right? You're making it more difficult then it needs to be (No flaming on me intended, sorry if it comes off that way), but also, he didn't ask anyone to do this for him.

you are incorrect. unitapplytimedlife kills the unit. this allows the unit to show a death animation. we need to remove the unit if we are using certain alternative models for the dummy unit. this is elementary.

    Recently tried out ChatGPT about WE triggering. Wow it's capable of giving a somewhat legitimate response.
  • The Helper The Helper:
    I am sure it has read all the info on the forums here
  • The Helper The Helper:
    i think triggering is just scripting and chatgpt is real good at code
  • vypur85 vypur85:
    Yeah I suppose so. It's interesting how it can explain in so much detail.
  • vypur85 vypur85:
    But yet it won't work.
  • The Helper The Helper:
    it does a bad ass job doing excel vba code it has leveled me up at my job when I deal with excel that is for sure
  • vypur85 vypur85:
    Nice! I love Excel coding as well. Has always been using Google to help me. Maybe I'll use ChatGPT next time when I need it.
  • The Helper The Helper:
    yeah whatever it puts out even if it is not perfect I can fix it and the latest version of chatgpt can create websites from pictures it will not be long until it can do that with almost all the tools
