Two questions (About MUI and Thunder clamp)

[Smilis]

Hello everyone
I have two questions... one question about a trigger I made (If it is MUI and leakfree) and one about Thunder Clamp...

Question 1: Thunder Clamp

Is there anyway you can use thunder clamp without the casting time? I have set the castingtime to 0, but it still take some time to "cast" it...

Question 2: Is this trigger leakfree and MUI?

As the question sais, is it free from leaks and is it MUI?

Question 1: Thunder Clamp

Is there anyway you can use thunder clamp without the casting time? I have set the castingtime to 0, but it still take some time to "cast" it...

you need to create a custom thunder clap using channel ability plus trigger.

Question 2: Is this trigger leakfree and MUI?

As the question sais, is it free from leaks and is it MUI?

This is MUI cause it's instant trigger. Altough , it leak alot , you should watch this http://world-editor-tutorials.thehelper.net/cat_usersubmit.php?view=27242

Okay thanks. can you give a hint of how the code could look like? Or would it just be like add all units in an area of X and then damage them?

Infact, you need to create an ability using channel and you need to change the value of "Data - Art Duration" to 0 which will make it cast instantly. the trigger are just needed to do the damage and the special effect of thunder clap. If you want the slow caused by the thunder clap , you'll need to create a second custom spell based on slow from sorceress.

You can set the heroes spell animation to 0 if you want thunder clap to be instantly cast but there will be no animation.
I am not sure if it works because thats what other people told me

Thanks for all answers

But how do I remove the Point-variable if I have it MUI?

You can create - use - remove it, there in no wait in your trigger.

Worked!

but how will I remove it when I have point as a variable with array?

 

[Jedi]

point[1] >>>>> call RemoveLocation(udg_point[1])

point[Integer A] >>>> call RemoveLocation(udg_point[bj_forLoopAIndex])

point[Player number of(Owner of GDD_DamageSource)] >>>> call RemoveLocation(udg_point[GetConvertedPlayerId(GetOwningPlayer(udg_GDD_DamageSource))])

point[Player number of(triggering player)] >>>> call RemoveLocation(udg_point[GetConvertedPlayerId(GetTriggerPlayer())])

 

[the_ideal]

To clarify the answer to your first question:
The reason there is a delay in thunder clap's casting time is because the animation used is called "slam." So even if it takes 0.01 seconds to cast the spell, the "slam" animation still has to be played. So remove the slam animation to fix the problem.

You could use a dummy, too... but it's a lot of extra work.

okay. Thanks for all help

and btw: is it leakless when I have fixed the point-thing?

EDIT (2)

Okay, I had forgot "call" infront of the removelocation.... So now it works
But still, is it leakless now?

 

[the_ideal]

Should be leakless, as long as you destroy the farseer attack special effect in the second part of your trigger at some point.
