A Box Spell

Post by lilmanbryan »

Hey does anyone know how to create a spell that when you cast it, the ability surrounds the enemy in a little area in a cage, then casts flame strike inside the cage?

Well, you can simply make a dummy spell that targets a unit, then create a magical pen around the unit, then get a dummy unit to flame strike the pen.

Is the unit supposed to be "trapped by the cage"?

If so, can the unit cast spells/move (Within the 'cage') or is it paused completely?

Is there any way to "suspend" a unit? Like xantan's rape... except only with a unit and you can still click... (but it wont do anything)

Ya he is trapped in the box in a little area, about 200 area, then flame strike automaticaly casts inside the box so that the enemy can't escape.

Then just pause the unit... that'd be the easiest way.

This would actually be a neat spell if done in JASS. I might get around to it.

If its a 200 aoe other units that are beside the target unit will be trapped so should they be moved or just stuck in the cage aswell.

i asume u have the locust casts flame strike at position of target unit already done.

so you could use a magic pen as was previously suggested just create one at possition of unit so hes stuck and remove after X seconds. or use entangling roots so the single unit is trapped and change what it looks like.
