AuthorSummon Phantom
Is it possible to choose what direction the phantom appear in?
Thanks.

Also, is phantom guaranteed to take 3 hits before it dies or it could die in the first hit?

Lastly, how do u tell the phantom's turn? Like when u cast the spell, which part of the initaitive bar will it appear on?

Somebody correct me if Im wrong, but I think priority is:

1. Right.
2. Up.
3. Down.
4. Left.

If the first option cant happen because there is a stack in that location regarding the original stack, then it tries to summon Phantom in the next option.
If all cant be accomplished, then it begins with diagonal locations I think.
BUT in Survivals the order is different, maybe because your hero is looking at the left (Not like in hunts, your hero looks at the right there).

No, not at all.
It works EXACTLY like it works with Ghosts, because both share the "Incorporeal" ability.
The only difference is that you could say the Phantom has 1 Hp only.

I think the Phantom already has half the Ini when it is summoned.
Like, if you take the example of the "Runners in a track", you could imagine somebody beggining the race with half the way ran already.

This does not happen with Raise Dead spell for instance, there Monsters dont have any Ini gained, they gotta run all the track from zero.
for first question,

you cannot choose the direction but it comes on direction where it is free , the algorithm first searches behind unit then left then front then right of the unit so if all the space is filled by other units you cannot summon and if right is the only direction free to summon units then it summons there

question 2 ,

it follows the randomess of the ghost so no gaurantee it will have 2 miss

question 3 ,

i am not sure of the initiative bar functionality till now lamo

1. Right.
2. Up.
3. Down.
4. Left.

Error, "Right" is 4, and "Left" is 1, I think. XD
I thought behind was first...

More or less it will start as if it had just waited when summoned. The rest is up to you to estimate though waiting with hero gives an indication.
1) it goes according to X/Y coordinates, smaller to higher numbers.

sorry, typed too fast:

.. to choose the first tile, then it's clockwise, as usual.
thanks guys! QATC
