Stealth ability help

[Leoone]

I suppose there is tons of ways on making a stealth ability ive been trying with a dummy but cant make it,

Here's mine:

Stealth
Events
Unit - A unit Finishes casting an ability
Conditions
(Ability being cast) Equal to Stealth 3
Actions
Unit - Set (Triggering unit) movement speed to ((Default movement speed of (Triggering unit)) / 3.00)
Unit - Create 1 DUMMY for Player 12 (Brown) at (Position of (Triggering unit)) facing Default building facing degrees
Unit - Add Stealth to (Last created unit)
Unit - Order (Last created unit) to Human Sorceress - Invisibility (Triggering unit)

Help is appreciated.

P.S Sorry for my thread spam

Do not use Finished Casting Ability, use starts the effect of an ability. Why cant you make a wind walk with negative value?

 

[Leoone]

gonna test that.

explain more on wind walk with negative value

 

[Draphoelix]

Go to Preferances. Then there's a box where you can check : Allow negative values. Then go to the Wind Walk and on bonus speed write -2 or something. I think you can Shift + Click it too and do it too.

 

[Leoone]

Simple as that?

thanx

 

[Draphoelix]

Also if your going to make WoW spells I suggest you to go look at Extreme Candy War. It's location in Scenario, it's unprotected.

 

[Leoone]

Thanx again. and ohh, one final question.

How do u quit the ability?

 

[Draphoelix]

What do you mean by quit an ability?

 

[Leoone]

UnStealth

 

[shinami]

What do you mean by quit an ability?

If i understood it correct he means end the ability.

 

[Draphoelix]

Wind Walk ends when you attack/duration over. Or you want to modify that?

 

[Leoone]

Yes. i need so that it ends either when you attack something or else when you cast it again

 

[PrisonLove]

then dont use windwalk. use immolation and when a unit casts it add permanent invisibility, and if it unimmolates check it with an order string and then remove permanent invisibility.

 

[WilliamPa]

Go to gameplay constants, there find gameplay and windwalk able to turn off thing. Change it to true and then you can cancel windwalk.

 

[Leoone]

where is gameplay constants then? :S

Okey, found it. But how do i make it so i can turn it off?

Help is really appreciated

Hi, I'm also making a stealth ability for my map.

I found the "Can Deactivate Wind Walk" option in Gameplay Constants, and turned it on. But it still doesn't work...

In the Object Editor > Abilities > Wind Walk I have:

Changed the Art - Button Position - Turn Off (Y) to 2.
Added a icon for Art - Icon - Turn Off.
Added the string "unwindwalk" to Text - Order String - Turn Off.
Added some info to Level 1 - Text - Tooltip - Turn Off.
Added some info to Level 1 - Text - Tooltip - Turn Off - Extended.

 

[HydraRancher]

its pretty obvious (oh gameplay constants is in advanced > GamePlay Constants.)
the time out is still active because basing it off windwalk wont work like that if u want a stealth ability (EXTREMELY similar to my terran ghost cloak ability)
then like PrisonLove said use immolation. here are your triggers:

invis on
    Events
        Unit - A unit Finishes casting an ability
    Conditions
        (Ability being cast) Equal to Cloak 
    Actions
        Unit - Add Permanent Invisibility to (Triggering unit)

invis off
    Events
        Unit - A unit Is issued an order with no target
    Conditions
        (Issued order) Equal to (Order(unimmolation))
    Actions
        Unit - Remove Permanent Invisibility from (Triggering unit)

like that there you have your stealth ability!

 

[BarzahdX]

Well, don't forget to still cut the movespeed as perm invisi doesn't grant movespeed(and thus, no negative movespeed.)

 

[HydraRancher]

another trigger hmm? I'll quickly make this one

invis on
    Events
        Unit - A unit Finishes casting an ability
    Conditions
        (Ability being cast) Equal to Cloak 
    Actions
        Unit - Add Permanent Invisibility to (Triggering unit)
        Unit - Set (Casting unit) movement speed to 50.00

invis off
    Events
        Unit - A unit Is issued an order with no target
    Conditions
        (Issued order) Equal to (Order(unimmolation))
    Actions
        Unit - Remove Permanent Invisibility from (Triggering unit)
        Unit - Set (Ordered unit) movement speed to 100.00

THANK YOU SOOOO MUCH! +REP!
Works PERFECT, and you replied so quickly! A++

So much better then what I first tried to do, cause now it drains mana per second, which makes it more balanced for my map!

<3<3<3 Me luv u.




Another question;
Do I have to remove the "Green Flame-Effect" from the "Immolation effect"?
Or can I just remove it from the new ability, because I might want the real Immolation ability later...?
