[Solved] fire bomb like spell

[paleto123]

so i got a blood mage to cast a spell(thunder clap). and then 2 seconds later all affected units will receive another damage. it didnt go well, i cant get a working trigger to detect all the units. i need a little help

for that you need local variables, if you use GUI try using shadowed variables:

• Custom script: local group udg_TempGroup
• Set TempLoc = (Target point of ability being cast)
• Set TempGroup = Units in "Your Range" of TempLoc matching "Your condition"
• Custom script: call RemoveLocation(udg_TempLoc)
• Wait 2.00 seconds
• Unit Group - Pick every unit in TempGroup and do actions
  • Loop - Actions
    • Unit - Make (Triggering unit) causes (Picked unit) a damage of "Your damage" with attack-type Spell and damage-type normal

To be more efficient:

• Custom script: local group udg_TempGroup
• Set TempLoc = (Target point of ability being cast)
• Set TempGroup = Units in "Your Range" of TempLoc matching "Your condition"
• Custom script: call RemoveLocation(udg_TempLoc)
• Wait 2.00 seconds
• Set TempUnit= (Triggering unit)
• Unit Group - Pick every unit in TempGroup and do actions
  • Loop - Actions
    • Unit - Make TempUnit causes (Picked unit) a damage of "Your damage" with attack-type Spell and damage-type normal

For not use "Triggering unit" in every action of the loop

that worked, but i dont know if its good for multiple units casting the same spell at once

That will work because I used a local variable, local variable are uniques for every time the function is runned, basically are not overwritting if the trigger runs again before the 2 seconds:
PD: I miss add something more:

• Custom script: local group udg_TempGroup
• Set TempLoc = (Target point of ability being cast)
• Set TempGroup = Units in "Your Range" of TempLoc matching "Your condition"
• Custom script: call RemoveLocation(udg_TempLoc)
• Wait 2.00 seconds
• Set TempUnit= (Triggering unit)
• Unit Group - Pick every unit in TempGroup and do actions
  • Loop - Actions
    • Unit - Make TempUnit causes (Picked unit) a damage of "Your damage" with attack-type Spell and damage-type normal
• Custom script: call DestroyGroup(udg_TempGroup)
• Custom script: udg_TempGroup=null

oh, how i do the local variables? mines are "Set VariableSet TempGroup =" not setvariable tempgroup like yours

You create global variable and use the custom script mentioned above to make it local.

Here you get the local variable:

• Custom script: local group udg_TempGroup

And don't worry about this:

• Set TempGroup = Units in "Your Range" of TempLoc matching "Your condition"

Is the same as this:

• Set VariableSet TempGroup = Units in "Your Range" of TempLoc matching "Your condition"

but what I did is how you set variables in older versions.
