NEEDS FIX

The event should be Starts the effect of an ability The death type of the dummy should be can't raise, does not decay Dummies give too much vision Units with locust don't have collision, no need to use an action to turn it off You don't need arrays for the locations Take TH_INT[1] Equal to 1 check out of the loop You could use dynamic indexing Don't check this during every loop: TH_INT[2] Less than or equal to 0 If number of units in group >= 1, you don't need to check missile is alive or the range Dynamic indexing [tr]

Your free to do what ever you want with it...

Do not use:

Click to

• Time - Every 0.03 seconds of game time

Use:

Click to

• Time - Every 0.05 seconds of game time

Every 0.03 makes very legs and bugs.

Click to

• Time - Every 0.05 seconds of game time

scratch all that, do use 0.03

you need more configurables on this, should have per level stats (abilities which do not have support for levelling up break the spell submission rules) as well.

Why?

 

[Tank-Commander]

because 0.03 is the standard time for periodic loop triggers, it does not cause lag or bugs, using 0.02 is too fast and will cause lag 0.01 is completely excessive, but 0.03-0.04 are the standard rates (beyond that and smoothness for projectiles will start to be lost)

Edit: I'll also add to my comments on improvements, using co-ordinates over locations would vastly improve the performance of the spell

 

[Losam]

Nice. And 0,05?

 

[Tank-Commander]

(beyond that and smoothness for projectiles will start to be lost)

0.05 and greater, will cause this

 

[CanFight]

btw whate ????
you shall always use 0.03 Losam.

0.05 will look like the missile is blinking or some thing and...
I will need to increasse the the distance it moves every time that makes it able to miss the targets...

so no thx i keep it at 0.03 there is should be...

like is there any leak ect...

plz do not double post. also asking for rep is against the rules. same with trading rep.
u will get rep when u earn it or someone deems necessary.
sry if i sounded rude.

@TO
the indexing method u use is outdated and slow. You can learn a better indexing method in my tutorial Things a GUIer Should Know.
if u need any help learning it im glad to help u.

also this

• Set TH_Damage[TH_INT[1]] = ((Real((Strength of (Triggering unit) (Include bonuses)))) x ((Real((Level of Throw Hammer for (Triggering unit)))) x 2.00))

should be changed since u put triggering unit into a variable already. u should use that variable. As a rule of thumb. anything u use twice or more store into a variable and use it for efficiency and speed. Also it helps with editing things.

Can u plz put ur triggers in hidden tags ? thanks
