Spike trap, need help

[needshelpplz]

???

Did you try giving it an AOE attack and making it so that the AOE only targets self?

 

[Kazuga]

Ok have I got this right? I make a new trap out from a goblin mine, remove the explode ability and put the aoe targets allowed to self?

 

[needshelpplz]

ds

Yes that's pretty much it. The simplest solution is often the best one.

 

[Kazuga]

Must have been something more since it's not working, the mine doesn't attack in any way..

 

[Flare]

did you give it atk damage/enable its attacks? try removing any unit classifications it has as well

 

[Kazuga]

Yes but it still doesn't work....

 

[needshelpplz]

asd

post what you have in object editor and we might be able to help.

 

[Kazuga]

Sure you dont wanna use my triggers? You know: It's done, It's working and you can do whatever effects you want with it. You can also use it with different heroes at same time.

However, if you wanna do it from the goblin thing it would work fine too I guess.
You can also Import unit settings in Objects -> File.

If I learned exactly how to make it the way you did I would gladly do, I'm making this spell to learn how to do it and if I just go and copy a trigger someone else has done then I will learn nothing. If you expalin why you did that and that then I would gladly use your triggers

>Edit: Ok I looked up your triggers again and I think I got it now. Let's try to make this work...

 

[needshelpplz]

yay!

Ok, well I tried to see what you did wrong so i attempted to do the exploding mine thing myself. It attacked the model just fine but for some reason wouldn't kill itself. I then tried using an aura but that didn't work either. I then thought it might have something to do with the melee attack so tried doing it with a rifleman, but that didn't work either. As a last resort, I finally attempted using a mortar and it worked.

And guess what, I finally solved it. Make sure that the attack type of the attack is artillery as opposed to instant.

 

[Kazuga]

Ok one thing at a time, you want me to create a mortar dummy, or just set the dummy I have now to infantery or the goblin mine?

 

[needshelpplz]

take the dumie you have now and make sure that the attack is set to artillery as opposed to instant, then the Aoe will work.

 

[Kazuga]

eh... :banghead:

 

[needshelpplz]

lol

What's the problem now? It should be working, it works for me.

 

[Kazuga]

take the dumie you have now and make sure that the attack is set to artillery as opposed to instant, then the Aoe will work.

the dummy I have now, that means any dummy will work? make sure the attack is set to artillery as opposed to instant, eh.... what? then the aoe will work, what if the dummy doesn't have aoe?

 

[needshelpplz]

zomg

if the dumie doesn't have an aoe, give it an aoe and make sure the aoe targets self.

 

[Kazuga]

and the artillery opposed to instant? you can only have one of them?

 

[needshelpplz]

l

yeah, make sure it's set to artillery as opposed to instant, otherwise the aoe doesn't work.

 

[Kazuga]

now your just repeating yourself instead of anwsering..
