Custom Shockwave not working need help

[squelch]

I used bribe's damage detection for this... basically what im trying to do is create a ministun over time in the shape of breathe of fire.

We could try to find ourselves what is not working.
But it would be much more helpful if you told us what the problem is.

((Triggering unit) Equal to (Random unit from g)) -> completely invalid
Set DamageEventAmount = (DamageEventAmount - DamageEventAmount) -> also invalid
Wait until ((DummyTemp is alive) Equal to True), checking every 0.10 seconds -> also invalid
For each (Integer A) from 1 to 60, do (Set timer = (timer + 1)) -> also invalid

Set TriggCheck = (TriggCheck + 1) -> unused

by "invalid" i mean either a blank statement or thread crashes. in either case, should be fixed or removed.

shockwaves dont stun silly

no im trying to code it to stun...

For each (Integer A) from 1 to 60, do (Set timer = (timer + 1))

You are instantly setting variable to 60.

And your method of doing this is soooo weird??!?

If you want a shockwave that stuns, move your own shockwave missile with triggers.

triggers.

I think he thinks that it would be the same as if he'd make a perodic event increase the variable, but then he does it in the same trigger so if it actually worked it would just have been like a normal wait, but with up to 1sec inaccuracy instead of the normal 0.15~

Forget about helping with triggers I'd say give some links to tutorials...

Here's one, might already be a bit further down the road than you should start off though... https://www.hiveworkshop.com/forums...u-should-know-when-using-triggers-gui-233242/
