Chain Spells are not for beginners. They are really hard to get working correct adn they should always be made with JASS to prevent memory leaks. I recommend you to use Vexorian's Chain Template. With it you can get what ever spell effect you want on all the targets.

Actually, the main difference between GUI and JASS is Multiinstanceability, through local variables. Local variables can be used at the same time by more than one execution of the function, while globals are not that flexible. Through this, results the whole difference and possibilities.

Moreover, since it is pure text, JASS can be easier manipulated, but you can mistake much easier too. And mroeover, some functions are available only in JASS, such as the RemoveLocation function. Unfortunately for GUI programmers. But mostly, GUI and JASS have the same possibilities. But JASS has way greater potential.

It is possible with triggers. If you have Leopard's old version of "Chain Venom" you see how it works. Unfortinantly you can only download the his updated JASS version now more. But I think i leaks very much if used just with triggers. To prevent memory leaks you should always simulate "Pick units" functions with JASS. Can be difficult for beginners though.

When you get WE will you then look for it...
Exept i submit that i have found it...

Its pretty lame when chain if it sudently try to attack invoulnerable :eek:
Then the attack just will stop so it will be lame :D

Is there something wrong when i can find Invoulnerable at Item, Destructble.
I can find it on every thing exept Units???
Do you think its a Error so it will maybe help to Reinstall
