Isnt there a way to make it so it moves the unit next to the cliff?

Add the condition in your "Lightning Rush Effects" trigger instead. The one with the low periodic event, which moves your caster.

EDIT: Oh wait you order it to move. Let me investigate

---------

Alright, what I suggest is that you don't use a dummy runner. Pause the caster, make it "run", and order him to move. If he cannot reach the point, he simply won't

 

[Blackrage]

Problem in that: If they try rushing up to another height and the ramp is somewhere else, they will try to go to the ramp, totally making the spell awkward and making the target point useless.

Why not use slide instead ?

 

[WarLuvr3393]

Great spell, but what you should really do is make the dummy run a LOT faster because inside lightning supposed to speed things up? It's kinda contradictory because your spell is "Lightning Rush" and it's running kinda slow.

Just my 2 cents. Great spell nonetheless.

As those 2 suggested, try sliding the caster instead. With a low periodic event, move the caster a short distance, with a "Run" animation.

Don't forget to check if the point is pathable!

Here's an example of sliding: http://www.thehelper.net/forums/showthread.php?t=22135

Then that will make the spell exacly like chill flash....

Ok, ill try making the slide....

Nice Try, but then ill still lose mana (easily fixable) and the ability cooldown also (Can't Fix )

Anyway, im uploading new version but it still can get stuck on the cliff :banghead: .

 

[Hero]

for fixing leaks you should use leak checker

Pretty sure I and anyone else that has learned about leaks could find and fix leaks better than a leak checker

Anyways I'll look more into this after vacation

Well if you really want your spell to be a move order, as it is right now, simply check if the (Target point) is pathable and if not cancel the spell...

Or, you could check every x seconds if in front of the caster the terrain is pathable.

Example (CasterPos being the position of your caster, and Caster being the very caster ):

Pathability
    Events
        Time - Every 0.04 seconds of game-time
    Conditions
    Actions    
        Set point = (CasterPos offset by 60.00 towards (Facing of Caster) degrees)
            If (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions)
                If - Conditions
                    (Terrain pathing at point of type Walkability is off) Equal to True
                Then - Actions
                    Custom script:   call RemoveLocation(udg_CasterPos)
                    Trigger - Turn off (This trigger)
                    Unit - Order Caster to Stop
                    -------- Add any other actions here to make sure the spell won't continue and every leak is cleaned ---------
                Else - Actions
            Custom script:   call RemoveLocation(udg_point)

Should look like this.

well, it still does have the sliding part which is the same as the one chill flash used.

 

[Blackrage]

Bump

 

[WarLuvr3393]

I dunno, it's still not fast enough for me. Please try to make it go a bit faster to give it the "jolt" effect.

 

[Blackrage]

K, making the jolt effect

 

[Blackrage]

Sorry for the delay, i was playing games a lot

Made the slide faster, a little more faster then that will make it lag like crazy.

 

[Sim]

Good job.

Approved.
