Is there any way to cast a spell using triggers?

is there any way to lockdown a building or a organic unit?

Like putting a spell on the map?

Casting a spell in triggers, i must say, is impossible, unless the main attack is the spell. tongue.gif (hint hint:EUD's)

As for lockdown, same goes.


Sry sad.gif I hope im correct. If not, maybe other ppl may help you

yeh hes right however if u was to forsay want a dark swarm im not entirely sure if u can but u can pre place a swarm sprite and move it there (im not much of a sprite person to be honoust so ill let others correct me if im wrong) but thats the only way and itll only work for like dark swarm and maybe disruption web it may not even have the spell affects it may just be there but w.e it may work

lil-doom, you couldn't be more wrong. tongue.gif only EUD conditions exist, EUD actions are long gone. and no, EUD conditions can't create spells, they detect them.

this is what i think about darkswarm. darkswarm can be created for any player, yet it will only activate its effects when owned by p12. i think you can preplace the DS and move it to somewhere else in the map

to the second question, no, impossible without modding. may or may not have been possible with EUD actions.

I meant to say "Mods" not "Eud's". I was thinking about EUD's at the time. ohmy.gif

Duh EUD condtions cant create spells. you cant make spells with reg triggers using conditions. pinch.gif

well then, the fault is yours, not mine.

ps why would you 'hint' at mods after talking about triggers....?

haha how wrong you people are...you can tell a computer unit threw triggers to cast some like Disruption Web or Broodling or even Nuke threw AIs(if thats what you ment by spells)

and for the lock down thing...only machines

yes, you can manipulate a unit into using spells through triggers, but there is no way to directly achieve that effect(not including DW and DS - i think).

i could of swore there was one...but hey ive been away from a map editor for a long time now...maybe there isnt any unit specific spell AI like broodling or restoration but i could of swore there was one like Brood a unit at this location on the AIs...haha o well not the first time i was wrong...i bow to the awsome power of the mini moose...and if he ment making spells just appear out of anywhere then yes there is no way for that to happen aside from the wonderful world of modding where all your dreams come true...but if you wanted to just make it seem like spells are appearing out of thin air thats easy...the power of the arbitor is tremendous...use it

Well, uh, you just mod it. Go ask the modding people.

Can't SCMDraft load Mpq's before u enter it in the settings?

Then it would mod just that map?
