use fan of knives...

 

[mckill2009]

use fan of knives...

just additional, change the art(target) to firebolt...

 

[millzy]

use fan of knives...

this will work if your after spell to shoot out multiple balls at multiple units

but if after a single fireball that damages multiple units it passes though shock wave is what your after


im not sure whitch one your after not much to explain what you want
but either way they will work

Use in trigger by using Integer Loop?
And create some dummy casting firebolt?

Does this simple spell NEEDS a trigger?
Use Fan of Knives-based spell and just change the Art - Target to Firebolt

no triggers needed, just do like this...see map sample...

just change the stats - area of effect for the range...

Never really noticed that could make it based on fan of knives, but i wanted the spell to stun, so i made it based on creating a dummy and pick every unit in 600 range to be casted storm bolt, thanks for the tips anyway =D

 

[defskull]

Don't do "Pick every unit... " action
Just use, "Create Dummy unit" and "Order the dummy to War Stomp" around the position of Caster
Change War Stomp's Area of Effect to 600
There you go

EDIT:
I've uploaded a test map
By doing my trigger, it saves performance and lag-free
Cause', your trigger involves creating a dummy unit more than one, while mine, it just use ONE dummy unit at a time and it saves you from lag while casting this spell

 

[Oliveira]

why not? it works perfectly well =O

 

[defskull]

Read my "EDIT:" and see the reason

Say, if you detect 7 enemies in range, you would create 7 dummies and each of them cast Storm Bolt to each respective target right?
It creates SEVEN !

 

[Oliveira]

yeah, i understand...but if i do like you say, it may reduce the possible lag, but it will also cause the units in the area to be stunned before even being hit by the fireball, and that's not what i want =\ , is there a way not to use 'unit group' and at the same time target all units inside the area?

 

[defskull]

Oh I see the way you want it is different from what I had imagined
I think there are no other possible ways other than creating mass of dummies then ...
