After having looked around for the better part of a half an hour, I have deduced that we have the need of a Lightning Effect tutorial. Or, at least a link to one. Just throwin' that out there... Also, I'm having trouble figuring out the inner workings of Custom Lightning effects, and I was working on a spell when I realized that the lightning effect created between my two units does not move with the units. Eventually, I found this script on JASSVault for attaching mobile lightning effects to units, which I am going to attempt to implement. My question being: is it feasable to create a moving lightning effect in GUI (just because it would be about 1,000 times harder) with the minimal use of custom scripts? |

Why would you want to do it in GUI? It would be very laggy. |

I prefer to work in GUI because I like making my spells implementable by those who don't understand JASS. I feel that my spells would be more greatly appreciated if a larger number of people were able to understand it. However, the my question regarding this is mainly on an "I'm just wondering" basis. Nobody needs to go out and spend hours trying to get it to work or anything. |

when you write spells in GUI NOBODY can understand them =) I'm not sure what your question is-creating lightnings is pretty self explanatory, and we have lots of moving-shit-around with timers tutorials. Maybe you can explain the sort of thing you want to do, or point out an example. |

Complicated, yes. My question was just wether or not it can be done, or if it just requires too much in the realm of "JASS only", however. |
