Trigger that makes unit move and deal damage while moving

[Nathan0093]

Whats going wrong with the trigger?

wait so you want a dummy to damage a unit if it passes through the tigeran blademaster? like weavers ablity in dota sorta?

 

[Nathan0093]

Yes. Im making an ability called "Tiger Rage". When activated, it lasts for 10 seconds and causes the hero's attacks to generate airwaves that deal damage as they go through enemies. There is no problem with the trigger except that i didnt include the damage dealing part yet. Thats what i need help with.

Maybe every 0.01 seconds or something, pick every one of the Airwave dummy and cause it to damage all units around it that arent in a unit group. Then add all units to a unit group so they arent damaged twice. Or maybe you could just make a dummy unit cast shockwave every time the unit attacks.

I tried making a dummy that casts shockwave but that one isnt as accurate and the projectile is too small.

^ I knew how to make a dummy unit casts shockwave. I just didnt like the method because the shockwave doesnt come straight out in front of the hero plus the projectile is too small. Thanks for trying anyway.

 

[THE_X]

you could do a dummy shockwave like creat a unit and slide it to a positon and add an event, a unit comes within 300 of your dummy unit it takes so much damage.

 

[Nathan0093]

That's what I need help with. I dont know how to do that. Also, how do i add detection? I want the shockwave to come out only when the hero actually landed a hit on the target.

 

[Squishy]

Theres some damage detection tutorial somewhere on the site.

Give the dummy immolation or Phoenix fire maybe?

For phoenix fire, you want an insanely fast projectile, a very fast cooldown (0.1s would work), and a duration of about a second.

Oh and, short range so it only hits units under the projectile.

Immolation would also work, but it could hit the same unit multiple times.

 

[FrozenShadow]

He wants an ability like shockwave, well the projectile is too small, because your dummy unit is too small, make your dummy unit's transparency to 100%, but keep the model, except it has to have locust, there you have it, take out the shadow, then you can keep the normal size of the projectile.

Off Topic: Holy Mother of God! I just got 10 +Rep in one day, great people, thanks all, I will spread my +Rep today!!!

 

[Nathan0093]

^ That might just work lol. If it does then +rep for you guys who helped.

 

[FrozenShadow]

No problem, I was going to give you +Rep a while ago, but it said I've given too much +Rep in the past 24 hours.
