there u go...

well i created 3 codes for it since trying lots a lots of experiment...
still its a failure...

 

[13lade619]

merge them into one trigger, with the waits between creating dummies... and use some Variables.

 

[isaax190]

i tried merging it still it doesn't work...
anyways how do i use variables...
teach plz

 

[kelogsloops]

Hmm!

Is it like a skill where the hero/unit hits 3 times?

or like doess a different damage 3 times? maybe a spell.

IF its hero attack 3 times you could try getting a dummy to cast bloodlust and values for attack speed increase is like 999999999999999999% but then itd be hard to remove it exactly on time :< Gah sorry!

 

[13lade619]

jsut search... using variables is basic...

 

[isaax190]

here's the merged code:

dummy test Copy
    Events
        Unit - A unit Starts the effect of an ability
    Conditions
        (Ability being cast) Equal to Doom Blast 
    Actions
        Unit - Create 1 dummy for (Owner of (Triggering unit)) at (Position of (Triggering unit)) facing (Position of (Target unit of ability being cast))
        Unit - Add a 1.00 second Generic expiration timer to (Last created unit)
        Unit - Add Firebolt (Neutral Hostile) to (Last created unit)
        Unit - Set level of Firebolt (Neutral Hostile) for (Last created unit) to (Level of Doom Blast  for (Triggering unit))
        Unit - Order (Last created unit) to Neutral - Firebolt (Target unit of ability being cast)
        Wait 0.10 seconds
        Unit - Create 1 dummy2 for (Owner of (Triggering unit)) at (Position of (Triggering unit)) facing (Position of (Target unit of ability being cast))
        Unit - Add a 1.00 second Generic expiration timer to (Last created unit)
        Unit - Add Firebolt (Neutral Hostile) to (Last created unit)
        Unit - Set level of Firebolt (Neutral Hostile) for (Last created unit) to (Level of Doom Blast  for (Triggering unit))
        Unit - Order (Last created unit) to Neutral - Firebolt (Target unit of ability being cast)
        Wait 0.10 seconds
        Unit - Create 1 dummy3 for (Owner of (Triggering unit)) at (Position of (Triggering unit)) facing (Position of (Target unit of ability being cast))
        Unit - Add a 1.00 second Generic expiration timer to (Last created unit)
        Unit - Add Firebolt (Neutral Hostile) to (Last created unit)

        Unit - Order (Last created unit) to Neutral - Firebolt (Target unit of ability being cast)

the 3rd dummy is disabled for test...
well if i enable the disabled code it still shoots 2 times...
help plz....

 

[13lade619]

store your dummy and triggering unit to variables.

 

[isaax190]

like this???

Actions
    Unit - Create 1 dummy[1] for (Owner of (Triggering unit)) at (Position of (Triggering unit)) facing (Position of (Target unit of ability being cast))
    Unit - Add a 1.00 second Generic expiration timer to (Last created unit)
    Unit - Add Firebolt (Neutral Hostile) to (Last created unit)
    Unit - Set level of Firebolt (Neutral Hostile) for (Last created unit) to (Level of Doom Blast  for (Triggering unit))
    Unit - Order (Last created unit) to Neutral - Firebolt (Target unit of ability being cast)
    Wait 0.10 seconds
    Unit - Create 1 dummy[2] for (Owner of (Triggering unit)) at (Position of (Triggering unit)) facing (Position of (Target unit of ability being cast))
    Unit - Add a 1.00 second Generic expiration timer to (Last created unit)
    Unit - Add Firebolt (Neutral Hostile) to (Last created unit)
    Unit - Set level of Firebolt (Neutral Hostile) for (Last created unit) to (Level of Doom Blast  for (Triggering unit))
    Unit - Order (Last created unit) to Neutral - Firebolt (Target unit of ability being cast)
    Wait 0.10 seconds
    Unit - Create 1 dummy[3] for (Owner of (Triggering unit)) at (Position of (Triggering unit)) facing (Position of (Target unit of ability being cast))
    Unit - Add a 1.00 second Generic expiration timer to (Last created unit)
    Unit - Add Firebolt (Neutral Hostile) to (Last created unit)
    Unit - Set level of Firebolt (Neutral Hostile) for (Last created unit) to (Level of Doom Blast  for (Triggering unit))
    Unit - Order (Last created unit) to Neutral - Firebolt (Target unit of ability being cast)

STILL 2 SHOTS!!!!!
how come i cant make it 3??

 

[vypur85]

Only need to store 'Target unit of ability being cast' into variable.

Actions
    [B]Set TargetUnit = (Target unit of ability being cast)[/B] <-- Unit variable
    Unit - Create 1 dummy[1] for (Owner of (Triggering unit)) at (Position of (Triggering unit)) facing (Position of [B]TargetUnit[/B])
    Unit - Add a 1.00 second Generic expiration timer to (Last created unit)
    Unit - Add Firebolt (Neutral Hostile) to (Last created unit)
    Unit - Set level of Firebolt (Neutral Hostile) for (Last created unit) to (Level of Doom Blast  for (Triggering unit))
    Unit - Order (Last created unit) to Neutral - Firebolt [B]TargetUnit[/B]
    Wait 0.10 seconds
    Unit - Create 1 dummy[2] for (Owner of (Triggering unit)) at (Position of (Triggering unit)) facing (Position of [B]TargetUnit[/B])
    Unit - Add a 1.00 second Generic expiration timer to (Last created unit)
    Unit - Add Firebolt (Neutral Hostile) to (Last created unit)
    Unit - Set level of Firebolt (Neutral Hostile) for (Last created unit) to (Level of Doom Blast  for (Triggering unit))
    Unit - Order (Last created unit) to Neutral - Firebolt [B]TargetUnit[/B]
    Wait 0.10 seconds
    Unit - Create 1 dummy[3] for (Owner of (Triggering unit)) at (Position of (Triggering unit)) facing (Position of [B]TargetUnit[/B])
    Unit - Add a 1.00 second Generic expiration timer to (Last created unit)
    Unit - Add Firebolt (Neutral Hostile) to (Last created unit)
    Unit - Set level of Firebolt (Neutral Hostile) for (Last created unit) to (Level of Doom Blast  for (Triggering unit))
    Unit - Order (Last created unit) to Neutral - Firebolt [B]TargetUnit[/B]

Event used should be 'Starts the effect of an ability'.

 

[isaax190]

what type of variable will i use for target unit ability being cast?

 

[DrEvil]

unit

 

[Verrak]

Make a trigger that creates 3 dummys; then add 3 diffrent fireballs, one to each.

Fireball 1 deals 100 damage 0 second cast
Fireball 2 deals 100 damage 1 second cast
Fireball 3 deals 100 damage 2 second cast


That way, all 3 dummys are created at once, no waits required; but still gives the effect of casting 3 firebolts consecutive

 

[isaax190]

thx guys...
but just wanna ask whats the difference if i use variables or direct triggering...
?

 

[OMGedDude]

For preventing leaks, also makes things a lot easier and quicker. Also for storing data, since you can't use triggering unit in a repeating trigger, etc.
