New Force Moves

MasterSaitek009 · Post by **MasterSaitek009** » Wed Oct 04, 2006 7:11 pm

Since this is my topic and I need to post another force power, I figured bumping was justified.

Here are the originals.
Force Freeze - Majorly overbalanced. But fun to play around with all the same. When you use this move on a unit, the unit will be frozen and become unfrozen when you stop holding the button down.
Force Heal - Gives the targeted unit a health buff for a short amount of time.

The new one is force stasis.
Force Stasis - Freezes the targeted unit for 2(can be adjusted) seconds.

To use this ability you'll need to add some code into your lua.

If you use this move be sure to credit Zerted and Maveritchell as well as myself, since they helped create/troubleshoot a lot of this code.

Have fun!

Hm, does Force Freeze wear off? That was prolly a stupid question

Anyways, I think Force Freeze would be good for my map, but I'm not at that stage yet, so...

And yes, I'll be sure to remember you in my credits

Post by **Teancum** » Wed Oct 04, 2006 9:25 pm

Force Freeze seems majorly unbalanced, but it's a very cool concept.

_vader_ · Post by **_vader_** » Wed Oct 04, 2006 9:32 pm

How do you put it just in your game without making a map? force freeze sounds awesome BTW.

You have to make one

more specifically u need 2 make a side mod. going 2 school. bye!

Chris165 · Post by **Chris165** » Fri Oct 06, 2006 1:30 pm

force freeze..... I thought it was called force stasis

Post by **Maveritchell** » Fri Oct 06, 2006 2:17 pm

A couple questions on force freeze: Is the soldieranimation tied to the user or the target, and does it require you to maintain the click on the target (a la choke)?

Try it out and you will see

Some of us don't have the time and some of us have no idea how to put it in game!

MasterSaitek009 · Post by **MasterSaitek009** » Fri Oct 06, 2006 10:41 pm

@@@Chris165, Thanks I was looking for a Star Wars kind of name for it. Force Stasis is from KotoR right? I don't have it but I'm thinking about buying it.

@@@Maveritchell, Force Freeze(Or Force Stasis) is tied to the target's SoldierAnimation. So when you hold down the button like you do with force choke, the target will do his (or her to be fair) own specific idle animation.

Very nice. Mind if I use these in a map?

He said anyone can use'em as long as you give him credit. And, if I were to use this in a map, would I be able to change the ingame name so it doesn't say "force"?(my map's not SW related) I'd want it to just say Freeze or something like that

And another question, does this use stamina, like force choke, or can you use it over and over again.
*crosses fingers*
say it uses stamina, say it uses stamina, say it uses stamina,

MasterSaitek009 · Post by **MasterSaitek009** » Sat Oct 14, 2006 3:51 pm

Sure, you can change the name to whatever you like.

LOL, Yes it does use stamina exactly like force choke. Are you going to use it for that superheroes map you are working on? That would be wicked sweet :twisted:

Thanks. And yes, I will be using this in my superhero map

somen00b · Post by **somen00b** » Sun Oct 29, 2006 2:22 pm

Can you add .fx effects to force freeze, like smolder effects or an effect coming from the owner? Also can you have them stay frozen for x amount of time? I want these requests for an ice hero for my magic mod, but Dohnutt could make Mr. Freeze with it. *mentally crosses fingers*

OFF_TOPIC: Dohnutt I was think about ur map and had some ideas for it. Can I talk to you sometime??

Linus · Post by **Linus** » Tue Oct 31, 2006 5:49 am

Good gosh, how could I miss this? I will maybe use the ''Force Heal''-power in a map. Many thanks to you, 'Saitek'...
