War3:Source

Hello,

I tried to create my own race based on the default ones that come. Successfully I was able to do so, but unfortunately I tried to change the ultimate cooldown, so I could, for example, spam ultimate (test purposes) or even make it shorter depending on the race.

I tried to change the cooldown of Human Alliance and Crypt Lord ultimate, but it remains 20 seconds...

Any idea what could possibly be?

Thanks in Advance,
Plock

Show some code.

Most races have a CVar so you can configure the ultimate cooldown without the need to recompile it.

I already changed that :/

//ultimate
new Handle:ultCooldownCvar;
new Float:TeleportDistance[5]={0.0,600.0,700.0,850.0,1000.0};
public OnPluginStart()
{
    ultCooldownCvar = CreateConVar("war3_human_teleport_cooldown","0.0","Cooldown between teleports");
   
    m_vecVelocity_0 = FindSendPropOffs("CBasePlayer","m_vecVelocity[0]");
    m_vecVelocity_1 = FindSendPropOffs("CBasePlayer","m_vecVelocity[1]");
    m_vecBaseVelocity = FindSendPropOffs("CBasePlayer","m_vecBaseVelocity");
   
    if(GAMECSANY){
        HookEvent("player_jump",PlayerJumpEvent);
    }
}
public OnUltimateCommand(client,race,bool:pressed)
{
    if(RaceDisabled)
    {
        return;
    }

    //DP("ult pressed");
    if( pressed  && ValidPlayer(client,true) && !Silenced(client))
    {
        new Handle:genericSkillOptions;
        new Float:distances[5];
        new customerrace,customerskill;
   
        new level=W3_GenericSkillLevel(client,GENERIC_SKILL_TELEPORT,genericSkillOptions,customerrace,customerskill);
        //DP("level CUSrace CUSskill %d %d %d",level,customerrace,customerskill);
        if(level)
        {
            GetArrayArray(genericSkillOptions,    0,distances);
            new Float:cooldown=GetConVarFloat(GetArrayCell(genericSkillOptions,1));
            //DP("cool %f",cooldown);
            if(War3_SkillNotInCooldown(client,customerrace,customerskill,true)) //not in the 0.2 second delay when we check stuck via moving
            {
                TPFailCDResetToRace[client]=customerrace;
                TPFailCDResetToSkill[client]=customerskill;
                new bool:success = Teleport(client,distances[level]);
                if(success)
                {
                    //new Float:cooldown=GetConVarFloat(ultCooldownCvar);
                    War3_CooldownMGR(client,cooldown,customerrace,customerskill,_,_);
                }
            }
       
        }
        else if(War3_GetRace(client)==customerrace)
        {
            W3MsgUltNotLeveled(client);
        }
    }

}
Now reading it more carefully, seems the code which uses my Cvar is commented:

if(success)
                {
                    //new Float:cooldown=GetConVarFloat(ultCooldownCvar);
                    War3_CooldownMGR(client,cooldown,customerrace,customerskill,_,_);
                }

new Float:cooldown=GetConVarFloat(GetArrayCell(genericSkillOptions,1));

its getting it from the generic race cooldown convar

you can comment the line i listed and use custom cvar instead:
//new Float:cooldown=GetConVarFloat(ultCooldownCvar);

but give this a different name so it doesnt conflict with existing cvars

ultCooldownCvar = CreateConVar("war3_human_teleport_cooldown","0.0","Cooldown between teleports");

I will try, thank you very much!! I'm still learning, good to know about the generic race cooldown (:
