Ok, so I have this spell like Solar Beam from AotZ, but color yellow like the original Hero Revive graphics and is a holy beam. I use a timer to call a function which calls the CasterCastAbilityLevelPointLoc, it should use shockwave at the target loc of the spell, but whenever it is called, I believe the caster is created at the loc and uses the spell but I wanted him to shockwave so it damages units in a line. The prob is that it's always angled, if I target exactly 270 degrees south, the shockwave comes from the target loc and fires the shockwave and around 315 degrees or something. Can you make a new function which creates it in the unit's loc and orders it to target the target loc? Name it like 'CasterCastAbilityLevelFromPoint' or something like that.. Thanks for your time, and I'll reward you with candy if you add that function in the next version xD. |

There won't be more features added to the caster system, instead I'll upload the replacement. Also Code:
______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
function CasterSetCastSource takes real x, real y returns nothing
function CasterSetCastSourceLoc takes real x, real y returns nothing
set udg_sourcehack = location (JASS) | set sourcehack = Point (GUI)
¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯
* Will set the position where casters are moved before casting an ability, so you can make
them cast an ability from the point determined by this function, by default the point where
casters appear is the position of the target, use this to temporary change it.
* This will only affect the Caster System functions that are next to this call, after a wait
or in another instance of the trigger you'll have to set this again.
* You can get the same effect if you set the value of the sourcehack variable, but don't ever
forget to set it to null after calling the functions you want to affect.
* See the Blessed Sword and Thors Hammer sample triggers to see an usage example on this hack.
______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
function CasterSetRecycleDelay takes real Delay returns nothing
set udg_delayhack = Real (JASS) | Set delayhack = Real (GUI)
¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯
* Will set the wait time before recicling a caster if you used false as instant argument, by
default the Caster System will wait till the caster is not casting that ability before
recycling it, use this to also add an extra delay before recycling it.
* This will only affect the Caster System functions that are next to this call, after a wait
or in another instance of the trigger you'll have to set this again.
* The delayhack global variable determines the time the system will wait before recicling
the casters used in a function when the ability is not instant. If you were experiencing
that damage abilities were not giving bounty/experience if the kill was after a while from
the time the casters cast the ability, set delayhack to the maximum time the damage can
take. Always set delayhack to 0.00 after calling the functions.
* See the Thor's hammer, the Blessed Sword and the Fire Wall sample triggers to see an
usage example on this hack.

* These versions of CasterCastAbility and CasterCastAbilityPoint, allow you to choose everything,
including the level of the ability, the source point and ELEVATION and the recycle delay.
* They IGNORE CasterSetCastSource and CasterSetRecycleDelay , also udg_delayhack and udg_sourcehack

Ohh, I haven't seen that before xD. So what I'm supposed to do is call CasterSetCastSource then after that call the CasterCastAbilityBlahBlahBlah ? |
| 04-11-2007, 04:34 AM | #4 |
before. Although Ex is better |
| 04-11-2007, 09:33 AM | #5 |
Let me make this clear for myself, I should : 1.] Call CasterCastAbilityLevelPointLoc 2.] Call CasterSetCastSource Or vice versa? |
| 04-11-2007, 12:55 PM | #6 |
vice versa. But really, Ex is better it does it all with just one function. |
