[Kukeiko]

What is

• Set FireTrap_Caster = (Summoning unit)

for?
Does'nt this only work when using "Spawns a summoned Unit" Event, as described in de WE?

 

[corley]

sorry i forgot to mention, i have another trigger that uses that when i summon the "Mine" using the summon golem ability

 

[Kukeiko]

As far as i know:

• Set FireTrap_Caster = (Summoning unit)

(Summoning Unit) refers to the Unit that triggered the current Trigger, in this case, "Fire Trap Copy Copy".

Try Messaging out (Game - Display Text Message) "FireTrap_Caster" and see, if it even is the Unit you are awaiting it to be.

 

[-Berz-]

And... Set Feargroup = (Units within 500.00 of Fear1 is defined where?
And you just can't use same variables setting then once in "this" and again in "other" trigger and hoping it will work :/

 

[corley]

like this?

• Fire Trap Copy Copy
  • Events
    • Unit - A unit Dies
  • Conditions
    • (Unit-type of (Dying unit)) Equal to Fire Trap
  • Actions
    • Set Magefrostpoint = (Position of (Triggering unit))
    • Special Effect - Create a special effect at Magefrostpoint using war3mapImported\NewMassiveEX.mdx
    • Set SpecialFX = (Last created special effect)
    • Set FireTrap_Caster = (Summoning unit)
    • Set Feargroup = (Units within 500.00 of Fear1 matching ((((Matching unit) is A structure) Equal to False) and ((((Matching unit) is A Hero) Equal to False) and ((((Matching unit) belongs to an enemy of (Owner of Fearcaster)) Equal to True) and ((Unit-type of (Matching unit))
    • Unit Group - Pick every unit in Feargroup and do (Actions)
      • Loop - Actions
        • Unit - Cause FireTrap_Caster to damage (Picked unit), dealing (50.00 x (Real((Level of Fire Trap (new) for FireTrap_Caster)))) damage of attack type Spells and damage type Fire
        • Game - Display to (All players) the text: Test
        • Custom script: call RemoveLocation( udg_Magefrostpoint )
    • Custom script: call DestroyGroup (udg_Feargroup)

The aboive doesnt work/show the "test" ,essage, but if i put the test message above the loops section it shows up. SO from this the damage/loop section isnt working? any ideas?

 

[Maker]

Did you read Berzerker's post?

• Set FireTrap_Caster = (Summoning unit)

Bad. There's no event that returns summoning unit in this trigger.

• Set Feargroup = (Units within 500.00 of Fear1 matching ...and ((((Matching unit) belongs to an enemy of (Owner of Fearcaster)) ...

You should define Fear1 and Fearcaster in this trigger, or find another way tomake sure those point to the correct unit and location.

• Unit - Cause FireTrap_Caster to damage...

This will return 0 since there's no <summoning unit>.

You should post the other trigger(s) too, and explain what you're trying to do.

[Adiktuz]

why is there a UnitType of Matching unit at the end of the Unit group part?

• Set Feargroup = (Units within 500.00 of Fear1 matching ((((Matching unit) is A structure) Equal to False) and ((((Matching unit) is A Hero) Equal to False) and ((((Matching unit) belongs to an enemy of (Owner of Fearcaster)) Equal to True) and ((Unit-type of (Matching unit))

1. Spawns a summoned unit is upon DEATH, like the hydra thing.

2. Summoning unit is DEAD by the time the mine dies, so therefore no damage. Just create a dummy for the owner of the unit that will survive until the mine dies and cause the dummy to damage everyone.
