About each skill:

Prayers Song -

* It plays the sound Holy Grail to the player whom it heals.
* It creates a stars around the player it heals (particle effects) which are attached to that player for a moment.
<<UPDATED>>
* Heals a player to war3_angel_healamount of maximum player health percentage.  Uses a float variable.  (0.0 - 1.0)  1.0 is equal to 100%
* Heals player only once no matter how many Guardian Angels are on the server, and waits for everyone on the server to get healed this same way.  After the last person on the server gains the benefit, it will reset and start over.
* The heal checks to see if the player is less than 30% of their max health and is the lowest player of this percentage before they receive Prayers Song.
*Admin can make changes to war3_angel_healamount on the dime without map changes.

command                           default
-------------------------------------------
SONG_HealAmountCvar          1.0

0.0 = 0% of max health
1.0 = 100% of max health



Wings of Glory -

* Fly mode is similar to noclip fly mode, except you can not travel thru walls or such.
* it teleports the player up and off the ground about 25 feet (which only feels like 5 feet) so that the player can fly easier.
* it has not spawn cooldown which you can use right away on spawn.
* its speed is maxspeed only during usage of wings of glory, because starting out flying is very slow if at normal speed.
* it has blue/red mix of particles of smoke that follows the player's feet while using wings of glory.
* it has a blue/red mix of teleport effects that follows the player's mid section.
* it has stars that are mixed around the player that follows the player has he or she moves around while using wings of glory.
<<NEW>>
* Player can be shot down while flying.
* Pressing the [+ability] a second time allows a player to quit flying.
* Speed has been slightly reduced.
* If a player class is not allowed to fly, they will receive immunites for skills/ultimates/slow/wards during same period of time as those classes that can fly.

A Possible update is scheduled for this addon.

I can only guess this should have been listed as a "preview" of this addon.  Nothing serious, just some annoyance issuses.  Everything works perfectly in this uploaded new race.

The update may include:

- Need to nerf the healing time interval of players
--- either give the player last healed a cooldown timer to prevent being healed twice in a row by 2 different Guardian Angels
--- if 60% or great health, don't heal.
--- may increase healing time per level

- Add a optional variable for server admins to prevent certain classes from flight mode and maybe change it to do something else for balance of the skills.

- press +ability again while flying to disable flight mode.

- If damaged while in flight mode, disable flight mode.


Overall this Race did prove to be very fun.   This race is much more fun than my first race Trillin!

After I make the improvements to this race, I'll start on a new race.   I'll probably put the next race I work on as a vote on the www.cgaclan.com/forums and/or if I can I'll also post a vote here, and I'll average up the vote between the two different web servers vote.

you could give a constant heal to lowest hp member instead of a time heal to max hp

What would you recommend the heal tick be?

Well, my effect stocks are also free to use for anybody else . One quick thing I noticed about your stock is that it uses Timers to delete particles, this is unsafe and can generate errors (especially during mapchange). If written the stocks as an abstraction of things I do with particles in my races, but they might not be sufficient for fancier things other people do with particles, therefor I'd like people to use them and give me some feedback on what to improve.

War3Source_Effects.inc

very nice stocks by glider

Other than the updated on everything but the particle system, I'll work to see if I can change my particle system to match the one that is included with War3source.   I hope i can, because I'm attaching to various points that are not "attachment" points per say.
