Skewer

How do I Trigger Magantaur's Skewer ability?

You might want to explain what the ability does for those who don't know.

Here is what it does.

Magnataur rushes forward, goring enemies on his massive tusks. Hits up to two units max. Charges up to 800 range max. Units hit will be stuck with you until you reach your targeted point, at which point they will be slowed by 40% for 2 seconds.

I usually use hashtables for moving kind of spells. When the ability is casted, move slide magnataur towards target location, if any unit comes in range, slide it backwards as well. After reaching, create a dummy unit and cast the buff on the units affected. You can find hashtables guide in this forum.

Sky, you've got it wrong, you slide the units that get hit, by the angle from magnataur to the point casted, because you cant just slide them backwards assuming they are moving forwards when he does it.

By backwards I meant facing angle of magnataur.

I just wan to know how to move units from one place to another instead of using the trigger Move (Instantly).Dark Seer's Vaccum,Barathrum Greater bash ,Mirana and Slark's Leap stuffs like that.

To create a slide effect you have to periodically move an object forward by a certain distance at a certain angle.

Those abilities are moving units instantly, every say 0.05 seconds moving by 10-20 distance. Try searching hiveworkshop for a hashtable tutorial.

Heh, I remember the times we were stuck using Custom Value to make something MUI. All this hashtable stuff makes it dead easy.
