Hey guys, so I was trying to make the "Ball Lightning" Spells from Dota's hero Storm Spirit last night, but the Panda keep rolling to the center of the map no matter where I click the ability target point. Can somebody help me, here is the map and forgive me for bad triggering I am not really good at making trigger spells.

Set Ball_Lightning_Point3 = (Target point of ability being cast)

somehow this never get value also GetSpellTargetX(), Y and loc is empty or 0 even i use channel ability with point target....

lol i was blind, u paused ur unit in begning the trigger, after u pause ur unit u cant get his spelltarget (weird or no but very damn simple move unit pause to last line in trigger and work flawless)
