> Can we ask for help either here or in the help threads?
Yes. Though nothing like "Make my spell for me" or "Check if this spell is as good as it can possibly be".

> Would it be allowable to have a second ability as a sort of display to show the cooldown of a certain part of the ability?
Yes. Still no imports allowed though.

WIP

(My WIP is actually serious this time)

3rd icon.

Still have a fair bit of experimenting to go.

The idea is you have to teleport around in your god mode area so that the shockwaves push/damage units around, hopefully keeping them in there for long enough. This definately has a higher skill cap than most spells. (as in it's meant for a competative player vs player)

Edit: Tweaked it a bit
Edit2: Updated it a bit more
Edit3: Polished, dunno if i'll submit it though

It is a system, no you cannot.

Not that you can't judge however you want of course, but hasn't the crusade against all and every function call gone a bit too far?

That's something different entirely.
That's just ugly, inefficient and crappy.

Extra function calls are inefficient too. Though 1-liners are inlined anyway, so I don't deduct points for them.

> Why write it out again and again if you can do it yourself.
If you didn't know really basic triginomatry, you'd probably find that:
JASS:
set x = PolarProjectionX(x, 5, bj_PI)

looks better than:
JASS:
set x = x + 5 * Cos(bj_PI)

Well, I guess we've got different views on this. I understand what you mean anyway. :)
(This is the awesomeness of 2 judges!)

"looks better than"

Your argument is invalid.

Is this a beauty contest?

Oh, dear...


I am way more beautiful than you'll ever be.

:cool:

Easier to read is a good thing.

And as long as it gets inlined you cant complain about optimization.

IMO they both look easy enough to read, but someone else might have a different opinion..

Nah, I'm right and you're wrong.

Because my rep-penis is bigger.


On a side-note, I want more submissions!

apparently, people are boycotting the contest cause of too many rules..
although that's not the reason why I'm not one of the contestants
but be patient, you will get mass submissions in the last few days before the deadline

anyway, I hope the next contest will be terraining contest, there wasn't any in awhile :/

Contestants are just as limited as they were in every previous contest.
Regardless, they're the ones missing out.

There were 2 of those in a row not too long ago.
