OHHH THANK YOU OH SO FREAKING MUCH your my new favorite person but new question

ok this is kinda complicated to explain but here we go

ok i want something called hellfire done i kno how to activate it and everything but then i want it so that when its activated(which kills everything in the middle of map) to only kill opponents and u still get the kill credit for it is this possible?

and i also forgot to ask how do i get leaderboard to work for when one of units kills another units it shows the kill count on leaderboard?

[IceDevil9]

Once again, just send me the map, I'll see what I can do. Only problem is with your hellfire, I'm not too good with abilites, but I need to learn, so I'll give it a shot.

The 'hellfire' thing, I believe should be done with like... thunder clap with a large radius (may cause lag tho so), another suggestion is like flame strike with a large radius (and if you needed, you could use another spell so that you can't choose where to flamestrike, but it is instead done at the position of the unit)

You could try it with triggers but the only problem you would encounter is that you would not recieve any exp or gold when they die, with trigger damage or kill actions

[tassadar920]

You can do it with triggers, AND get whatever gold and crap you want.

Make a trigger that fires when it is activated:

Event - An ability is cast
Condition - Ability equal to "Hellfire"
Actions -

Pick every unit in location (center of map)
- If owner of (unit) is (not equal to) owner of (casting unit) & Repeat previous, but check for all people allied with your player
- Then
Kill picked unit;
Add $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$ to owner of casting unit (dont know the real trig)
- Else
Do nothing!

[Darimus]

Well yes you could but I doubt he knows the formula for exp calculation... I don't know it. And he can't give the real gold amount, theres no integer check for bounty of a unit.

[darknesseternal]

ya im not understanding any of that so should i just make it so it doesnt give u gold or kills?

and by the way i still need help with leaderboard

[darknesseternal]

nvm about telling me about leaderboard i figured it out

but now that i have both hellfire and leaderboard working....

will the hellfire kills add up onto the leaderboard or no becuz this is how i have leaderboard set up

Setup Leaderboard
Events
Time - Elapsed game time is 2.00 seconds
Conditions
Actions
Leaderboard - Create a leaderboard for (All players) titled Archers Killed
Player Group - Pick every player in (All players matching (((Matching player) slot status) Equal to Is playing)) and do (Leaderboard - Add (Picked player) to (Last created leaderboard) with label (Name of (Picked player)) and value 0)
Leaderboard - Show (Last created leaderboard)

thats to set it up now this is the updadting part

Update Leaderboard
Events
Unit - A unit owned by Player 4 (Purple) Dies
Unit - A unit owned by Player 3 (Teal) Dies
Unit - A unit owned by Player 2 (Blue) Dies
Unit - A unit owned by Player 1 (Red) Dies
Conditions
(Owner of (Triggering unit)) Not equal to (Owner of (Killing unit))
Actions
Set kills[(Player number of (Owner of (Killing unit)))] = (kills[(Player number of (Owner of (Killing unit)))] + 1)
Leaderboard - Change the value for (Owner of (Killing unit)) in (Last created leaderboard) to kills[(Player number of (Owner of (Killing unit)))]
Leaderboard - Sort (Last created leaderboard) by Value in Descending order



this is also my first use of variables and conditions for that matter but can u pros tell me if the hellfire would conflict with the leaderboard becuz that would be bad if it did if u need me to post hellfire trigger ask

[darknesseternal]

ok i still need the hellfire kill count question answered but now i have yet another problem....

ok when u get a certain amount of kills u get an upgrade such as instead of archer u get huntress well i have a problem with that

well i have a foodlimit trigger that when it goes up to 30 it stops the create archer trigger and that foodlimit trigger works perfectly fine but then wen you get say 70 kills and get the upgrade the foodlimit trigger for the archer is still working i have a trigger that removes the archer stuff from trigger que but it still creates archers not huntresses anyone know a solution to this???

[Darimus]

Please: Do not Tripple Post or Double Post, just use Edit.

and I have no clue what you meant with foodlimit...
might I suggest what you're trying to do, instead of suggesting how you would/or did, attempt it with triggers.

[darknesseternal]

sry for the multipost

nevermind i figured it out the only thing i still need to know is if the hellfire trigger would conflict with leaderboard or not
