Thanks to all who helped me with making the spell.
A great thanks to darkbeer who helped me make this into mui.

Enjoy:p

Edits:
Fixed the bugg that sometimes made the rocket to glide around a unit.
Fixed the damage bug.
The rocket now explodes when hiting trees and other destructebles.

Yes, this is the right place just incase you were wondering

PS: Good spell (Y)

EDIT: A moderator will hopefully come around soon and test it and then move it to the spells section!
 
The rocket sometimes goes around units, and doesn't blow up. Like when I targeted the gnoll at the start, it was heading towards it, then moved to the side of it.

Other than that, it is a good spell :thup:.
 
Hm I thought I fixed that before... It has with the detection range, it is set to 200 so a unit has to be within 200 range when the unit moves in order to make it explode. I will look over it after school.

Edit: Fixed, I had forgotten a condition...^^
 
what defines the spell level damage, i can only find one action that sets the damage dealt and it's a static 200 damage, not 200/250/300.

Not that hard to fix myself but would still like to know :)?

PS: Neat spell, +rep, helped alot :D
 
Thanks for pointing that out, strange I'm 99% sure I fixed that part... anyway fixed that to now. Surely hopes that there isn't anything else that needs to be edited in order to get this approved.
 
Hehe no problem mate^^, I got alot of help from darkbeer so it's no problem.:thup:
 
I acually found it rather amusing shooting those rockets at poor defenceless creatures. I didn't go through the code though since GUI bores the crap out of me. Great work + rep.
 
oo, pretty rocket launcher ability, but does a unit needs to carry a rocket launcher so he can shoot from it?

+rep

No, all you need is enough mana and no cooldown;).

your welcome

but do that unit needs to carry rocket launcher

so it would make it more realistic

but okay, anyway

(can the mortars do the shot?)

Not in this spell, I can edit one for you that require rockets if you want but this one is not to be changed unless it's some sort of bug or leak that I have forgot about.

but okay, anyway

(can the mortars do the shot?)
Click to expand...
Yes, any unit can. Just pick a hero and teach him the spell and there you go.:thup:
You can also let normal units use it by going into the spell in object editor, go to stats and find "Hero ability - true", change that to false and then you can teach it to normal units.
 
ive found a bug...
im shooting the rocket and its sliding along the trees
 
Ye, I know about that and it's been taken up before... Of what I know there is no way too solve that problem=/ But if you can think of one I will be forever greatful.

Pick every destructible in X range, then, within the loop, increase an integer's value by 1. If (integer) greater than 0, theres a destructible in range, so you can destroy your rocket.

Or, if possible, count the number of destructibles in range of a point (would be easier than the group)
Click to expand...
None of those is possible, atleast not with gui, just tried it and there is no actions that counts destructebles or even any destructeble/group destructeble variables...

Edit: Sorry for my spelling, I just can't learn to spell that word..
 
I don't think destructible groups leak (at least that's what I have heard)

Code: 
Destructible - Pick every destructible in (Region centered at (Position of (Triggering unit)) with size ((Real(Collision radius)), (Real(Collision radius)))) and do (Actions)
    Loop - Actions

Obviously without the region and location leaks :D

You could see whether it leaks by using lots of Pick every Destructable every 0.05 seconds (just CnP the action until you get bored?) and see if your FPS counter makes a noticeable drop at any stage

    I have a different one, and that one has my credit card attached to it and I would like that credit card to not be attached to it if I can't get it back

    Anyway Microsoft is not very helpful with this, they just keep telling me to fill out the Account Recovery form, but that just redirects me to the other account
  • The Helper The Helper:
    They should not allow you to put a credit card on a account that does not have human customer service you can call
  • Varine Varine:
    That's the only thing that got hijacked at least. I don't totally know how these integrate together, but it seems like I should be able to do this via the gamertag. Like my email is still mine, but they changed the email to that account I'm guessing.
