Des: A spell that enhances a unit's attacks by giving bonus damage depending on how far the caster unit is from the target (kinda like frost arrows xD).

It can be easily done in GUI too. All you need is a buff placer and a GUI-Friendly Damage Detection, just like Weep's Damage Detection.

but then after detecting a unit with the buff taking damage ill be causing further damage to the unit which means it will run to a loop because the unit still has the buff and the unit took damage for the second time..

EDIT:and this thread is a spell request im not asking for any help xD...no offense but thanks for ur trouble!!

Not true. You could remove the buff from the damaged unit on the instant it is damaged. Well, here's the full trigger on the spell.

Implement Weep's GDD Snippet. Base your spell on Frost Arrows with any duration. Set the slow values to 0.00. Create 2 new buffs based on "Cold Arrows (Stacking)" and "Cold Arrows (Non-stacking)". I'll name these 2 buffs A and B. Set these 2 buffs under the buff field for your Impetus skill. Then, implement this trigger.

Trigger:
  • Impetus
    • Events
      • Game - GDD_Event becomes Equal to 0.00
    • Conditions
      • Or - Any (Conditions) are true
        • Conditions
          • (GDD_DamagedUnit has buff A) Equal to True
          • (GDD_DamagedUnit has buff B) Equal to True
    • Actions
      • Trigger - Turn off (This trigger)
      • Set TempPoint[1] = (Position of GDD_DamageSource)
      • Set TempPoint[2] = (Position of GDD_DamagedUnit)
      • Set TempReal = ((Distance between TempPoint[1] and TempPoint[2]) x 0.25)
      • Unit - Cause GDD_DamageSource to damage GDD_DamagedUnit, dealing TempReal damage of attack type Chaos and damage type Universal
      • Floating Text - Create floating text that reads (|cff3399ff+ + (String((Integer(TempReal))))) above GDD_DamagedUnit with Z offset 0.00, using font size 10.00, color (100.00%, 100.00%, 100.00%), and 0.00% transparency
      • Floating Text - Set the velocity of (Last created floating text) to 64.00 towards 90.00 degrees
      • Floating Text - Change (Last created floating text): Disable permanence
      • Floating Text - Change the lifespan of (Last created floating text) to 2.50 seconds
      • Floating Text - Change the fading age of (Last created floating text) to 2.50 seconds
      • Custom script: call RemoveLocation(udg_TempPoint[1])
      • Custom script: call RemoveLocation(udg_TempPoint[2])
      • Unit - Remove A buff from GDD_DamagedUnit
      • Unit - Remove B buff from GDD_DamagedUnit
      • Trigger - Turn on (This trigger)


TempReal is a real variable representing the damage dealt. TempPoint is a point array variable.

DotA spell, deals damage based off how far the projectile of an attack has travelled. Though I guess it just takes the distance between the attacker and the attacked unit.

Yeah, it's based on the distance between the damage source and damaged unit. If you cast Impetus and move further away from the target, it deals more damage.

still has the buff
- trigger fires on damage
- buff is removed on damaged
- only clashes if 2+ units with the same ability places the buff at the same time, which is highly unlikely

isnt it much easier to start a trigger when the unit casts the spell, after that create a dummy that throws an invisible missile at the target dealing 0.01 damage, detect when that unit deals damage and thereafter deal damage based on distance from dummy to target. (move the dummy to the casting hero using periodic trigger).

just my thoughts

This won't work. Auto-cast isn't detected as spell.
