Spells

[Dest]

Eh, I'll just try to learn how to make a triggered spell. Is there any tutorials that can help me and can you also ask me to make you some easy triggered spells? I do suck at triggering, so I'm going need some help.

Thanks! :thup:

I gotta admit, his tutorial is really helpful. I was looking forward to spells triggering, though.

If you Can do GUI then spells should be no problem

Uhm, sir, I suck at triggering.

But just tell me what a spell that can be triggered in a easy way and I can try to whip one up.

Try to do a targeted AoE stun ability

I found this tutorial helpful.

Try to do a targeted AoE stun ability

I think you base it on Cluster Rockets and change stuff and then you got an aoe ability? No triggers needed?

 

[Gtam]

OK then. Do a simple Knock back with the base ability Storm Bolt

Huh, what do you meant, a knockback? You mean when I hit a unit with the ability, he gets pushed away?

 

[Gtam]

The units slides backward from the impact

The units slides backward from the impact

Isn't that JASS? If it's GUI, er, I don't know how to slide the unit backwards..

Easy GUI
Il Give you hints.
1. you will need 2 triggers
2. 1 must be a periodic event and the other one where he starts casting
3. Use move unit instanlty to get him going backwards

The most basic course with GUI spells and dummy units would be something AOE, like
- AOE entangling roots
- make that englangling roots deal damage based on a stat of the casting hero
- experiment with spellbooks (put ability in it, disable spellbook, not exactly a very gui thing but very useful)
- dynamic looping, like Wisp Wheel (create 5 units and make them orbit another unit)
- etc

I failed the test, master.

Well, it's hard... can I have some more tips?

(When I say it's hard, I meant it's hard for beginners )

• Trigger 1
  • Events
    • Time - Every 2.00 seconds of game time
  • Conditions
  • Actions

• Trigger 2
  • Events
    • Unit - A unit Begins casting an ability
  • Conditions
    • (Ability being cast) Equal to Storm Bolt
  • Actions
    • If (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions)
      • If - Conditions
      • Then - Actions
      • Else - Actions

I'm guessing I make good progress, though?

Thats Great Cough not cough
Ok
you will need to strore the triggering unit and the target of ability being cast in vairiables and the turn on the periocic event. In the periodic event use Move your variable instanlty to position with offset

So I have to create a variable... what should it be based on?

Here is a spell I made. It basically pushes enemies back in a line. A tidal wave obviously.
