Hi all,
1st post! I am new here
I'm making a variant of IceFrog's DotA as practice / for fun, and I'm wondering how the runes (powerups like Haste and Regen) are made to respawn at the exact same location, after, say, 40 seconds?
Also as an extra, how do I make the Powerup a random one? I have 5 different kinds of powerups, and I want each one to have a 20% chance of being The Rune That Respawns.
I tried this but it didn't work:
1. Store the original position of the powerup as a Point variable
2. When a Hero takes it, wait 40 seconds
3. Make a new one at the position of the Point variable
4. This new item is randomly selected from Level 8 Powerups (I've made the 5 powerups level 8)
I was thinking of using something similar to the Creep Respawn system based on JASS or something, but I'm completely clueless to custom script
Any help is appreciated!
