[_whelp]

Nice to see you turned yourself into a spell, Immolation.

Cool spell though, hehe.

 

[Dinowc]

nothing new

it's the DotA's "Ion Shell" spell

+rep for the effort though

btw why do you need so many systems for such a relatively simple spell?

KT2 would be enough

 

[Immolation]

I don't play DotA, so I don't know what spell you're talking about.

Also, the systems I use are mostly for efficiency(see GT).

And Damage is a systems that all mappers should use since it makes everything so much more simpler.
You won't get anything more efficient than this, I think.

 

[kingkingyyk3]

Filter(function GroupCallback)

Preload it.

Damage(Level)
Area(Level)

Get the value in "Main", it reduces lots of calculations.

if IsUnitEnemy(Caster, GetOwningPlayer(target)) == true and UnitAlive(target) == true then

Structures are also involved? xD

    private function Damage takes integer Level returns real
        return 5.00 * Level
    endfunction

I thinks it is better to put damage per second.

You are not destroying the struct instance after the spell is finished.

 

[Tru_Power22]

Can't you just do this with lightning shield?

 

[Laiev]

Can't you just do this with lightning shield?

Lightning shield deals damage to all units, no matter if is enemy or ally

 

[GetTriggerUnit-]

It might be editable?

 

[Immolation]

Updated.

>It might be editable?
Of course, look at the first part of the code(where LIST OF CONFIGURABLES is written)

 

[HydraRancher]

Maybe a bit more detailed description? I mean is it literatelly put an immolation on a unit?

 

[Immolation]

Umm, it's not really that hard to understand I think :nuts:

Basically, enemy units near your target take damage each .33 seconds(configurable).
You can cast it both on allies and enemies.

 

[Executor]

As periodically area damage can be very useful for different things, you should make this spell more dynamically, means you should be able to do sth. like this:

set im = Immolate.create(target,damage,area)
set im2 = Immolate.createEx(target,damage,area,targeteffect,hiteffect,duration)
