1. how do i make a unit untargetable
2 how do i by triggers force that untargetable unit to cast a certain spell he has?
3 if possible tell me how i can use a AOE magic and make the untargetable unit where i click, and then it autocasts its spell after a certain amount of time

You give him the ability Spell Immunity if you want him to be untargetable by spells, or Locust if its general untargetability.

You can force him to cast via Unit - Order unit to cast X on point/unit/no target. Just select the appropriate spell you based your spell on.

I'm not certain what you're asking for for your last question.

How do make it locust

 

[Dr Super Good]

Add the ability locust to the unit via triggers or otherwise.

For 3, you simply move it to the location where the aoe spell is being cast, wait an ammount of time and then order the locust unit to cast its spell at that location.

Can you specify? that just made me go blank

 

[Angry_Bovine]

Locust is an ability you can give units. You have The Frozen Throne x-pac, right?

You use a trigger to do the last part Dr Super Good specified. Those are all actions, and the event is the unit casting the ability that you want to trigger the AOE on.

No, what you do is not double post again 1 minute after I just pointed it out to you, Use the "Edit" button to merge the threads from 10:58,11:10, and 11:31, and delete the 11:10 and 11:31 ones. Then, merge the 11:38 and 11:39 one, and delete the 11:39 one.

ok, that's just an order to use ability, what you must do is give the order on your custom spell base order ID. Example: if your spell Base order ID is shadowstrike, then to use it by trigger you use Warden-Shadow strike. something like that..
if you haven't change the base order ID on object editor, that must be the spell you based for the custom spell. example, when you make spell based on chain lightning, use far seer- chain lightning.
Hope this help you.
