Not bad ideas. Seems like it would belong in an AoS.

The triggering needs more work. You're gonna need more arrays. My comments:

You're not using waits in your triggers; I don't understand why you use a local variable Point in Vengeance and Vengeful Spirit. The only line that needs to be custom script is the order to cast Item Illusion (and leak removal.) For that matter, you don't destroy the local variable Point nor do you set it to null in either trigger, which are needed to prevent leaks with a local variable, as far as I know.

Your map has several unused variables. You can find them by using the Object Editor's Variable section.

• Vengeance:
Seems a little unsatisfying to me. There's only a very subtle visual effect on collision (death and decay). Something additional that stands out more would help give the impression of impact; maybe create and destroy Abilities\Spells\Undead\OrbOfDeath\OrbOfDeathMissile.mdl at the point of impact.

The way it pulls the enemy also seems to be a bit self-defeating, since it causes AOE damage, but pulls the enemy toward you, most likely away from any other enemy units.

Your test map has no terrain; I suspect that this spell would either bug or have a good chance of making the caster, the target, or both end up stuck in a tree or a cliff or other trapped position.

It's not MUI; when I started the second hero sliding, the first one stopped, and would not return to normal even if I hit Cancel (but did when I re-cast the spell).

It looks like you're trying to make it MUI up to 10 casts; that's pretty limited. Also, is the line "Set VeCustomValue = (TeCustomValue + 1)" an error? Shouldn't it be "Set VeCustomValue = (VeCustomValue + 1)"? TeCustomValue is not used anywhere in any trigger except there, so VeCustomValue will always be 1...

• Vengeful Spirit:
It's not really MUI, nor MPI; it restricts itself to 4 images total from ANY hero with this ability, owned by ANY player. It should be 4 per hero.

You don't need the "And - All (Conditions) are true" in the Vengeful Spirit trigger, since conditions are by default all required to be true.

• Nether Link:
This is also not really MUI; the damage will be distributed between all heroes and images with the ability, not just the hero and the images created from it. It is also not MPI; at the very least, you should put in a check that Matching Unit belongs to the owner of Triggering Unit. As it stands, if two of these heroes fought on opposing teams, they would still have their damage distributed between them...

• Direct Vengeance:
Also not really MUI nor MPI, since any damage taken by any hero and any image with the ability will cause damage to every targeted enemy.

The triggers "Nether Link and Direct Vengeance" and "Nether Link and Direct Vengeance Images" are almost exact clones of each other; couldn't they be combined into one with a simple if statement?

• Set NLDamage = ((Damage taken) / (Real((Number of units in (Units in NLRect matching (((Matching unit) has buff Nether Link ) Equal to True))))))
  • If (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions)
    • If - Conditions
      • ((Triggering unit) is an illusion) Equal to True
    • Then - Actions
      • Set NLDamage = (NLDamage / 2.00)
    • Else - Actions

Also, you have leak removal in "Nether Link and Direct Vengeance Images" but it is missing in "Nether Link and Direct Vengeance".

 

[Igor_Z]

These spells are preaty good. Nice eye candy too . One thing bothers me. Vengeful Spirit spell isn't good. It has A unit attack event. Please use Damage Detection System(DDS) to make the spell immune to typing Stop(S) command...

EDIT: Checked the illusion spell. I don't know how but i broke the 4 illusion limit . Try to fix it somehow

 

[Ayanami]

Thanks for the feedbacks. I'll work on the trigger as soon as I can.

 

[Komaqtion]

Vengeance:

Your first trigger leaks a point...

Where are you removing this:

• Custom script: local location Point

??
Add this line:

• Custom script: call RemoveLocation(Point)

Vengeful Spirit:

This one leaks the same point as above.

• And - All (Conditions) are true
  • Conditions
    • (Level of Vengeful Spirit for (Triggering unit)) Greater than 0
    • VSInteger Less than 4
    • ((Attacking unit) belongs to an enemy of (Owner of (Triggering unit))) Equal to True
    • ((Triggering unit) is an illusion) Equal to False
  • (Random integer number between 1 and 100) Less than or equal to (5 + (5 x (Level of Vengeful Spirit for (Triggering unit))))

First, why do you have an "And" here, but don't insert all conditions there ?
And, that "And" isn't needed since it's always "And" in the "Conditions" field
This goes for all your triggers, you don't need an "And" in the first "Conditions" field

Direct Vengeance:

You aren't destroying the groups in the "Nether Link and Direct Vengeance" trigger.

And you don't have to destroy the rect "Playable map area", since it already exists

 

[Gtam]

You should chose fully GUI or jass not half half coz GUI people dont understand the custom scripts and jass people hate it.

 

[Igor_Z]

You should chose fully GUI or jass not half half coz GUI people dont understand the custom scripts and jass people hate it.

Not true! Its best that way. If you combinate your GUI with some JASS you will get great things done. Thats what I do cuz i don't want to learn JASS but i use GUI combinated with JASS custom scripts...

 

[Gtam]

Yes but its fine if you do it in your map but when you release it to the public whats the point then.

 

[Ayanami]

Thanks for the quick replies. Just released the v1.1. Hope everything is fixed now. Feedbacks will be appreciated :thup:

 

[Komaqtion]

I also think you should change this to a bit more still...

• VeCustomValue Less than 100

Like 1000 at least

And Vengeful Spirit isn't MUI, right ? :S
Since this isn't using custom values:

• Set VSAttacker = (Attacking unit)

And it's still used in another trigger, so not MUI

 

[Igor_Z]

Glenphir why u didn't add a damage detection system? The passive spell that creates illusions would be more efficient than now because now i press S when my hero attack and I cr8 illusions T.T

 

[Ayanami]

@ Komaqtion
Yes, it's not MUI. It's MPI.

@ Igor_Z
Hmm, damage detection eh? You mean by doing the Unit Takes Damage event?

 

[Igor_Z]

Hmm, damage detection eh? You mean by doing the Unit Takes Damage event?

Yes, of course

 

[Ayanami]

By using that, won't the illusions spawn although if the damage source is from a spell?

 

[Flare]

By using that, won't the illusions spawn although if the damage source is from a spell?

That's where an orb effect ability that applies a buff (e.g. Slow Poison) comes into play. Just detect if the buff was present on the target when damage was taken, then remove the buff. The buff will only be applied by physical attacks, so there should be no way that spells and physical attacks would become mixed up

 

[Ayanami]

But that'll cause other orb effects to malfunction. I had that in mind but didn't do it as it affects other orbs. Is Envenomed Spears considered orb? Tried with Lifesteal and it stacked. So just wondering.

 

[Weep]

Isn't it OK to use Unit Is Attacked when it's the unit being attacked that has the ability? It can't exploit it by spamming "stop" because it's not the attacking unit, and if the attacking unit spams "stop" then it's actually making things worse for itself.

 

[Igor_Z]

Flare thank you very much for the info. I didn't know that. I had problems in my map because my units used their passive spells when they dealt damage via spells. Well not anymore thnx to you. You got +rep from me

But that'll cause other orb effects to malfunction. I had that in mind but didn't do it as it affects other orbs. Is Envenomed Spears considered orb? Tried with Lifesteal and it stacked. So just wondering.

Simply add something to the tooltip such as
Will not work in the presence of other orb effects
or
This ability is an orb effect

If people choose to add additional orb effects, tough sh*t. The ability should work properly, and being able to spam the Stop order to abuse the spell does not constitute correct functionality...

But Flare, it's the enemy's attack triggering the ability, not the hero. How is that abusable? (Aside from being in cahoots with someone on the opposing team...)
