[Trigger] Frost Nova

• Electricalnovadamage
  • Events
    • Unit - A unit Starts the effect of an ability
  • Conditions
    • (Ability being cast) Equal to Electrical Nova (Neutral Hostile)
  • Actions
    • Set TempReal = ((Real((Intelligence of (Casting unit) (Include bonuses)))) x 4.00)
    • Unit Group - Pick every unit in (Units within 300.00 of (Target point of ability being cast) matching ((Owner of (Matching unit)) Equal to Player 12 (Brown))) and do (Unit - Cause (Casting unit) to damage (Matching unit), dealing TempReal damage of attack type Spells and damage type Normal)

The above, my trigger, doesn't appear to work, (it's based off of Frost Nova) the slow effect and the buff show on affected units, but the damage isn't dealt. I'm thinking it's because I'm referring to the casting unit as a casting unit in a Pick Every Unit action, and thus it's referred to multiple times. Can anybody tell me what I'm doing wrong? :x

where you have Unit - Cause (Casting unit) to damage (Matching unit), it should be Unit - Cause (Casting unit) to damage (Picked unit), well actually you should use triggering unit instead of casting unit.

Aha! That made it work. Thanks for the speedy (and useful) reply.

You would probably like to remove the unit group leak with the custom script "set bj_wantDestroyGroup = true" (put it beetwin your 2 actions).

And just a usefull tip, use Triggering Unit whenever you can, it usually works better then the other forms (in your case you can use it instead of "casting unit").
