Melee Hero

[forgotenplge]

How would i go about making an ability that when used the hero would swing and hit Units in a short range that are infront.
I would be making a Mainhand and Offhand ability if this was possible

I want it to be fast, so there would be no targeting.

If its an "ability"

use shockwave, with the animation names: attack

but than won't i be targeting ground?

 

[demotry241]

the longcut.... use "Channel" Ability:with base order id of shockwave and target type to unit
[create the ability from channel ability rename it to anything you want."]

then trigger

unit begins casting ability

condition
ability = "channel" ability =true(can be anyname though)
action
create 1 dummy for casting unit at position of casting unit.
add shockwave to last created unit
set lvl of ability to (lvl of ability of casting unit = "channel")
order last created unit to shockwave to target of casting ability
add (time)expiration time to last created unit


and your done.

all actions are under Unit-

IF cheesy beefy comes here. He'll help you!, thanks beefy.!

Here I am. :thup:

1. Create a custom ability based off of the spell "Thunderclap".
2. Rename to your liking. (Mine is named "SlamWave")
3. Put this trigger into your map and change the names.
4. Make sure your dummy unit has enough mana to cast abilities! (Make it 9999999)
5. Edit the shockwave ability and change "Stats - Hero Ability" to False.
