          • Custom script: call RemoveLocation(udg_Points[1])
          • Custom script: call RemoveLocation(udg_Points[2])
      • -------- Checks if there is any bolt unit left after this loop --------
      • -------- If not, turns this trigger off --------
      • If (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions)
        • If - Conditions
          • (ReturningBolts is empty) Equal to True
        • Then - Actions
          • Trigger - Turn off (This trigger)
        • Else - Actions




v0.01 - First Release
v0.02 - Moved the Conditional trigger turning off to the end of the loop
v0.03 - Fixed the leak at the Initial trigger
v0.04 - Fixed another leak at the Initial trigger and now using only 1 hashtable
v0.05 - Now it Spins again
v0.06 - Creates only 1 hashtable.
v0.07 - Rewrote the code to be more user-friendly. Added bounce to fleeing bolts' flight.

Are you sure you need three hashtables? You could only use one.

You could move this outside the loop:
  • If ((Bolts_Away is empty) Equal to True) then do (Trigger - Turn on Eternal Winter Bolts Away <gen>) else do (Do nothing)
This causes a leak:
  • Set Points[1] = ((Position of (Triggering unit)) offset by 70.00 towards (Facing of (Triggering unit)) degrees)

Humm , why your spell damage all the person close and not only enemy , Imported stuff should be avoid and why you make 3 periodic trigger just make one and use condition to make it work correctly

Did it damage the Lich?
Did you see how it works?
The original frost nova model isn't enough.
It works fine.

Great spell but that one trigger within the "initialization" portion that is "create hashtable" and the "set hashtable" really made me spend 8 years trying to figure out why the bolt went over the rainbow nowhere XD
