Inquiries about Weaver's ult and Tauren Chieften's ancestral spirit.

[KooH]

I was looking through the dota hero skills, then i started wondering how you can make Nerubian Weaver's ultimate skill, and Tauren Chieftein's Ancestral spirit skill. Any ideas how to make those? (Prefferably GUI please.)

By the way, What Weaver's ult does is he can go back 5 seconds in time, so, he resets his hp, mana and position. but, not cooldown, gold and experience.

Tauren chieftein's Ancestral spirit is He makes an illusion of himself at a target point, and he mimics his moves but, the opposite way(like mirror) then after the illusion comes back to him, giving him damage and movement speed based on how many units the illusion has passed through.

thanks in advance.

It'd be incredibally difficult, if not utterly impossible, to code them in GUI. Especially the second ability.

THis unprotected map has several DoTA heroes in it, however. Worth looking at though.

Hmm.. But this is JASS .

90% of DotA spells are Jass/Vjass including both of the spells you want.

Is there any program that can convert vJass/Jass into GUI?

This made my day.

Weavers ulti could posibly be made with GUI, gotta use hastables tho.

like save His hp/mana every 5 seconds, when casted give hp/mana to old hp.

@Hex.16, mine to lol XD

This spells can be both done in gui, they just need a lots of maths

Weaver's spell, this spell cant be MUI, cuz it has a limit of units the data can handle (would work for 8192 units cap)
Every 0.1 seconds store the unit's hp in a hashtable with an array, every time you do this add +1 to an integer value
Store Unit's hp in 1 of 1 in Hashtable[integer]

Unit cast backtrack
Set hp of unit to Load 1 of 1 in Hashtable [integer - 500]

Easy to do..
The tauren's is a bit more complicate, but theres a Mirror system around this forums, use the search tool, i think is done in GUI too

Well... Sorry to you both that i never knew it's NEVER possible to convert haha. btw thanks.

It's possible to recreate some JASS stuff artificially, but it's not possible in many cases. JASS/vJASS have some functions that are fully impossible to recreate in GUI, such as scopes and libraries, etc etc. I know how you feel though, I once despised JASS and thought that JASS could be brought into GUI. I know better now though

My advice would to be to look up Daelin's tutorial on JASS. Pretty simple once you get the hang of it, but the initial learning curve can be quite steep. Give it a shot. You don't have anything to loose, but so much to gain

And as always, happy mapmaking!
