Hi ! Sorry about the title XD Couldn't come up wit ha decent name for it :P Anyways, I've made this spell, which in the first place was a request in a thread on TheHelper.net, but I thought that it got quite complicated (According to me XD) so I am thinking about submitting it :S What do you think ? :o (After you've looked through the code below, of course :P) Anyways, this is a spell which links 2 units together with a lightning effect, and whenever a unit crosses that line, it damages/heals ( Depending on wether the unit is ally or enemy ) that unit by an amount, and also heals the caster of the spell for that amount too. Please, tell me if you would like to see more configurables, and give me suggestions and I'll try to implement them :D I also have these two constants, FREEZE_OR_TERMINATE and MAX_DISTANCE, and with these I'd like to somehow make a max distance there can be between the two units with the link... Anyone have any idea on how to do this ? :S Ok, so my questions are:
 Jass Code !:scope SpiritLink // requires T32, LineSegment, TimerUtils, AIDS globals private constant integer SPELL_ID = 'SPIR' // This is the rawcode of the spell which is to be used ! private constant real RADIUS = 1.0 // How close they have to be to the lightning effect to be considered crossing it... private constant real IMMUNITY_TIME = 2.0 // The time that, after a unit has been hit by this spell, it can be hit again... private constant real MAX_DISTANCE = 0.0 // The maximum distance the linked units can be from eachother. Set to 0.0 for infinite range ;) private constant boolean FREEZE_OR_TERMINATE = false // When the maximum distance is reached, what to do ? Set to false to terminate the spell, // or to true to make the units unable to move further away ;) private constant boolean ALLIES_ONLY = false // Wether this spell only can target allies... ( This can of course be changed in the Object Editor too ;) ) private constant attacktype ATTACK_TYPE = ATTACK_TYPE_NORMAL // The attack-type of the damage dealt ! private constant damagetype DAMAGE_TYPE = DAMAGE_TYPE_UNKNOWN // The damage-type of the damage dealt ! private constant weapontype WEAPON_TYPE = WEAPON_TYPE_WHOKNOWS // The weapon-type of the damage dealt ! private constant string LIGHTNING_TYPE = "SPLK" // The rawcode of the lightning to be used ! private constant string EFFECT_DMG = "Abilities\\Spells\\Demon\\DarkPortal\\DarkPortalTarget.mdl" // The special-effect when units get damaged ! private constant string ATTACH_POINT_DMG = "origin" // The attachment point of the special-effect when units get damaged ! private constant string EFFECT_HEAL = "Abilities\\Spells\\Human\\HolyBolt\\HolyBoltSpecialArt.mdl" // The special-effect when units get healed ! private constant string ATTACH_POINT_HEAL = "origin" // The attachment point of the special-effect when units get healed ! private constant string EFFECT_FINISH = "Abilities\\Spells\\Undead\\ReplenishHealth\\ReplenishHealthCaster.mdl" // The special-effect when the spell is done ! private constant string ATTACH_POINT_FINISH = "origin" // ================================================================================================================================================================================== \\ // PLEASE, DON'T TOUCH THESE GLOBALS !

THANK YOU ;) // ================================================================================================================================================================================== endglobals // How long the whole spell will last ! private constant function Duration takes integer spellvl returns real return 20.0 endfunction // The damage which will be dealt when the units cross the lightning ! private constant function Damage takes integer spellvl returns real return spellvl * 50.0 endfunction // The damage which will be healed when the units cross the lightning ! private constant function Heal takes integer spellvl returns real return spellvl * 50.0 endfunction // The new native "discovered" by Azlier ! // Don't change !

Well, if you submit it like this, it'll just get graveyarded for using resources that are not in our resource section. |

Yeah, yeah, yeah... I know that ! Please... But I can make this work with the resources available here, too... Anyways, I just want some help here ! |
