Help I accidentally made a spell!!!
Chronosphere:
Opens a rip in spacetime, causing everything to be locked in time except the caster. Lasts 4/6/8 seconds.
Chronosphere by NightSkyAurora
No need to give credits to me. I didn't invent this spell, I just made an approved (almost) version for everyone to use.
Credits:
PGRU-Unexpected - Chronosphere model
Maker - Pause concept
note: I added a stand animation to the chronosphere model so it won't fade after 6 seconds. It's file size is also smaller than the one in dota.
How to import:
¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯
1. File -> Preferences -> Automaticly create unknown variables while pasting trigger data
2. Export chronosphere model and add it to your map
3. Copy the Pause and Chronosphere spells to your map
4. Copy the Chronosphere unit to your map.
5. Copy the Chronosphere trigger folder to your map
6. Ensure that _Pause and CH_Model is set properly in the ini trigger and add the ini trigger's code to YUOR map's ini trigger
7. Rate this spell
¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯
v1.1
-Changed filtering method
-Changed some variable names
-Use GUI function to clear groups
v1.0d
-Fixed as suggested here
v1.0c
-Moved the condition that turns looping trigger off back to the bottom
-Removed unnecessary group clear
-Removes unit from CH_Group
v1.0b

-You state that the effect looks funny if the scale is not 100%, but then you have a static value for the divider.
-The death type of the dummy should be can't raise, does not decay because now the dummy lingers there for a good minute and a half after the spell ends. You could also modify death time.
-Filtering out the dummy unit type is not needed. It will only be detected after it dies.
-The casting animation on the hero stops a bit too early due to too short follow through time.

I explained everything in the "readme" trigger. If you still have problems to import it, post the map so I can have a look.i copy the spell in my map but i cant make it work
I got this idea from DotA. I have no idea if DotA invented this or if they got it from somewhere else. Regardless, this spell is pretty much identical to that of DotA
