effects from points

[007]

how can i make an effect that goes from a point (maybe where a unit is) to another point e.g. 500 infront of the unit?

and is it possible to make many effects in a row easily? i mean i chose 2 points where i want an effect. then i want that every 50 between those points is the same effect.

It is possible with polar offset. Here is example action:

• Set TempPoint = ((Position of <Unit>) offset by 200.00 towards (Facing of <Unit>) degrees)
• Special Effect - Create a special effect at TempPoint using <Model Path>

This trigger will create special effect 200 range if front of unit.
