Spellpack Swapping Spells

Swapping Spell Spack

I did not want to create big fancy spells as much as I wanted to just add in some interesting spells to gameplay. These could be good for any AoS if you tweak the numbers to fit your map, or they can be great for an RPG. I plan on doing an update soon, with fixes, possible MUI, and a third spell. Please post constructive criticism.​

​

[ Swap ]​

Swap places with an enemy unit, then deal 125 damage.
Targets Land and Air units.​

v3: Paused and unpause casting unit to fix a cooldown bug, make both spells [b]officially MUI[/b] by adding in an array.

v2: Fixed a bug, I [b]think[/b] MUI, Leakless as GUI can be, and technical errors.  Also made the abilities based off of Channel.

Special Credit to Glenphir, for helping me with the spells, as well as checking for bugs and being my friend.

 

[Sim]

I would suggest, in Eye for an Eye, to put the 2 Location leak removals before the wait, as if another spell of yours (or anybody's) use such variable names elsewhere, they might override during the wait.

Oh and replace that wait with [ljass]Custom script: call TriggerSleepAction(0.27)[/ljass]

 

[Weep]

Oh and replace that wait with [ljass]Custom script: call TriggerSleepAction(0.27)[/ljass]

Why? That's exactly the same as the GUI Wait action...

Noted, putting that in now.

Anything else that you guys have to fix, or useful custom scripts for it?

 

[Komaqtion]

Why, oh why, wouldn't you make these variable reals instead of converting them all the time ?!

• Set Caster_Life = (Integer((Life of CasterUnit)))
  • Set Caster_Mana = (Integer((Mana of CasterUnit)))
  • Set Target_Life = (Integer((Life of TargetUnit)))
  • Set Target_Mana = (Integer((Mana of TargetUnit)))

Do that please

And also, make the damage here configurable:

• Unit - Cause CasterUnit to damage TargetUnit, dealing 125.00 damage of attack type Spells and damage type Magic

And the 50.00 here too:

• Unit - Set mana of CasterUnit to ((Real(Target_Mana)) - 50.00)

 

[Sim]

Why? That's exactly the same as the GUI Wait action...

Oops, I saw "Wait (game-time) seconds". I wonder how.

Never mind then Leave it as it is!

 

[tooltiperror]

Will make the changes Komaq said, then fix a hotkey confliction error (Forgot that A, S, and M can't be used.)

 

[tooltiperror]

I updated the map and attached the new version.

Not sure if the third spell will be released by Friday.

        • Lightning - Destroy Lightning_EYE_FOR_EYE
      • Else - Actions
        • Do nothing <<<

You don't need that 'Do nothing' under else, just leave it empty.
And the wait makes it non-mui, well just the SFX will bug since there is a chance the sfx variable could get overwritten.
The if condition can be put in the trigger conditions as well, so you should have something like

• Eye for an Eye
  • Events
    • Unit - A unit Starts the effect of an ability
  • Conditions
    • ((Ability being cast) Equal to Eye for an Eye ) and ((Life of (Target unit of ability being cast)) Greater than or equal to 200.00)
  • Actions
    • Set Unit_Casting = (Casting unit)
    • Set Unit_Targeted = (Target unit of ability being cast)
    • Set Point_Caster = (Position of (Casting unit))
    • Set Point_Target = (Position of (Target unit of ability being cast))
    • -------- === --------
    • Set Real_Life_Caster = (Life of (Casting unit))
    • Set Real_Life_Target = (Life of (Target unit of ability being cast))
    • Set Real_Mana_Caster = (Mana of (Casting unit))
    • Set Real_Mana_Target = (Mana of (Target unit of ability being cast))
    • -------- === --------
    • Unit - Set life of Unit_Casting to Real_Life_Target
    • Unit - Set mana of Unit_Casting to (Real_Mana_Target - 50.00)
    • Unit - Set life of Unit_Targeted to Real_Life_Caster
    • Unit - Set mana of Unit_Targeted to Real_Mana_Caster
    • Lightning - Create a Drain Life lightning effect from source Point_Caster to target Point_Target
    • Set Lightning_EYE_FOR_EYE = (Last created lightning effect)
    • Custom script: call RemoveLocation (udg_Point_Target)
    • Custom script: call RemoveLocation (udg_Point_Caster)
    • Wait 0.27 seconds
    • Lightning - Destroy Lightning_EYE_FOR_EYE

Oh my; 2000th post.

 

[Gtam]

is the swap trigger its basically nether swap from dota but you need to pause the casting unit before you move him so the abilities cooldown can be enforced.

 

[black.sheep]

Or use setunitX and Y.

 

[Gtam]

or stick with GUI and not confuse GUIers.

 

[tooltiperror]

is the swap trigger its basically nether swap from dota but you need to pause the casting unit before you move him so the abilities cooldown can be enforced.​

So if I pause him first it will fix a cooldown bug?

Also, I'll fix those things, whoever said it above, I forgot.

 

[tooltiperror]

Version Three.

MUI, used an array for the effect.

And MPI, so two players can cast it.

Third spell underway...

 

[Komaqtion]

First, second trigger is only MPI and not MUI...

Secondly, you should use (Triggering unit) instead of (Casting unit), it's just slightly faster...
And, you should use the set variable everywhere ("Unit_Casting" and "Unit-Targeted"), like here:

• Set Point_Caster = (Position of (Casting unit))
  • Set Point_Target = (Position of (Target unit of ability being cast))

And here:

• Set Real_Life_Caster = (Life of (Casting unit))
  • Set Real_Life_Target = (Life of (Target unit of ability being cast))
  • Set Real_Mana_Caster = (Mana of (Casting unit))
  • Set Real_Mana_Target = (Mana of (Target unit of ability being cast))

Also, remove that "If" in the second trigger, and just put it in the first "Conditions" field, like:

• Eye for an Eye
  • Events
    • Unit - A unit Starts the effect of an ability
  • Conditions
    • (Ability being cast) Equal to Eye for an Eye
    • (Integer((Life of (Target unit of ability being cast)))) Greater than or equal to 200
  • Actions

But also here, DON'T CONVERT REAL TO INTEGER !!!
Just use a "Real Comparison" instead...

 

[tooltiperror]

Thanks, Komaq, I'll put them in when I get home.

 

[tooltiperror]

Bump, I updated it...

 

[tooltiperror]

Bump =(

Constructive Criticism please?

 

[Executor]

When one player casts the spell 2 times in one instant, one lightning will remain forever.
