Skills cooldown - Simoneon - 06-09-2012

Hey all!

I want to discus and find ways to enable having cooldowns on skills. Example - DvA can only be used in 10 seconds after previous use, while DJA - 20 seconds.

My theory: every skill would have additional frames at the beggining ("starter") and at the end ("finisher"). The "finisher" frame would spawn a t0 "timer" which follows the char via kind8. The "starter" then checks if "timer" is alive, and if it is, then char goes to standing frames.
I don't like this as much as I hate itr/k8. But I'm too stupid to think of any other method. Any ideas?

Cooldowns from my mod looks like this:

It works perfectly, instand of fall 10 its possible to put -1 or smthing like this : P

RE: Skills cooldown - Simoneon - 06-09-2012

Infern, so every time he tries to launch a skill he gets hit? That sounds neat! Although not perfect, because if you have same two heros, the cooldowns get messed up.
I want to avoid that - that's why I didn't want to use ik8 in the first place.

RE: Skills cooldown - Infern112 - 06-09-2012

What about some kind of anty cd?
I mean state 3000 cd which after being hit going to frame with other itr.
Really dont know how to explain this, and I am not even sure If I am thinking correctly about this xD

Ok, I tried to draw it: http://imageshack.us/photo/my-images/560/cdcd.png/ (dont laugh)

RE: Skills cooldown - Silverthorn - 06-09-2012

If you want to combine this with a little graphical effect, you could take a shot at the pet-technique, it features an object swirling around the summoner, no matter what. You can then combine it with Infern's method (I don't know, it's so simple that it's awesome again :p).

If you don't want to use itr/k8 or k0, you can also resort to the grab-itr (1 or 3, I always forget that). Basically, when the char executes the move while still being inside the time-limit, you get grabbed and brought to a frame which will display an animation à la "I can't do this, I'm tired", etc.

On a second thought, the pet-thing grabbing you might not be the best idea, considering that it constantly moves around...

RE: Skills cooldown - Simoneon - 06-10-2012

Thanks everyone! I'm going to try that method with grab, and lastly if nothing works - itrk8.
Btw, maybe anything with weapons? But afaik you can't hold more than one weapon...

Even with ik8 it's not sure it will stick with char A if char B enters the itr radius of the T0 object.
