When you do it every 0.03 seconds, it is not only 1 time. What have unit groups to do with damage? There is a function

native UnitDamageTarget takes unit whichUnit, widget target, real amount, boolean attack, boolean ranged, attacktype attackType, damagetype damageType, weapontype weaponType returns boolean
 
@defskull Why Set unit life instead of:
  • Unit Group - Pick every unit in UnitGroupVariable and do (Actions)
    • Loop - Actions
      • Unit - Cause unit1 to damage (Picked unit), dealing 500.00 damage of attack type Spells and damage type Normal
unit1 should be set to unit to want to deal damage to picked units. You can also use (Picked unit) again - meaning unit will damage itself.

Why this won't work?
  • If (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions)
    • If - Conditions
      • (DR_TargetUnit[DR_TempInt] is in DR_EnemyGroup[1]) Equal to True
    • Then - Actions
      • Unit Group - Add DR_TargetUnit[DR_TempInt] to DR_EnemyGroup[1]
    • Else - Actions
      • Animation - Play DR_Caster[DR_TempInt]'s attack animation
      • Unit - Cause DR_Caster[DR_TempInt] to damage DR_TargetUnit[DR_TempInt], dealing DR_Damage[DR_TempInt] damage of attack type Spells and damage type Normal
      • Unit Group - Add DR_TargetUnit[DR_TempInt] to DR_EnemyGroup[1]
I just want to damage the target unit with 1 time,but it every 0.03 second looping.
