Temporary Evasion

[soulreaping]

Hi,
Is there a way to add temporary evasion to a hero?

I thought of learning the hero the Evasion ability with no icon, but there isn't a way to unlearn it.

So how can I do that?

Thanks!

what do you mean by temporary?
your hero casts then add the item ability evasion after some time remove it agian

I mean a hero casts a certain spell, I want that during a specified time he will have evasion percentage.

 

[Drunken_God]

sth like
E: Hero casts
A: add ability to him
set trigger unit = (someunitvariable9
start timer with duration (your duration)

another trigger
timer expires
A: remove ability from someunitvariable


you understand?

 

[soulreaping]

Yes, thanks!

You do not need two triggers, you do not need a timer, you do not need a variable.

Untitled Trigger 001
    Events
        Unit - A unit Starts the effect of an ability
    Conditions
        (Ability being cast) Equal to Animate Dead
    Actions
        Unit - Add Evasion to (Triggering unit)
        Wait 25.00 seconds
        Unit - Remove Evasion from (Triggering unit)

Does not get much simpler than this...
As for hiding icon, spellbook, put evasion inside the spell book. What is a spell book? It is an ability under "items" if I remember correctly.

Do a trigger at map initlialization:
Player - Disable ability (Your spell Book ability with the evasion inside) for player X
Then of course, instead of adding the "evasion" as in the trigger above you add the "Spell book" with evasion

but wait isnt MPI nor MUI

Druken, when a spell is not MUI, it means that only one unit can cast it, otherwise it'll bug, am i right?

Yes Multi User Instance-able (all units in map can use it at same time)

this trigger is mui, since it uses the event - response "triggering unit"..

the thing that makes spells NOT mui is setting a variable, waiting, and then using that variable.. here there is no variable set, so no need 2 worry
