[JASS] Get units hit by a spell

[H4kor]

Hey Community.
I need help with one of my spells.
The Trigger should pick all enemies/units that are in the AOE of a flamestrike.
i have no idea how to do this cos i just started learning Jass.

i tried it with GetUnitsInRangeOfLocAll but dont know how to get the Location of the Flamestrike.

Lol
I suggest first learning some basic GUI.
For instance:

• Set temp_point = (Target point of ability being cast)
• Custom script: bj_wantDestroyGroup=true
• Unit Group - Pick every unit in (Units within 512.00 of temp_point matching (((Matching unit) is alive) Equal to (==) True)) and do (Actions)
  • Loop - Actions
    • Unit - Kill (Picked Unit)
• Custom script: call RemoveLocation(udg_temp_point)

Spiwn give him it in jass

I somehow doubt he knows any Jass.
Anyway it is not too hard to convert it from GUI to custom text.

Maybe I've got another way:

• NAME OF TRIGGER
• Events: An ability is being cast
• Conditions: Ability being cast Equal To Flame Strike
• Actions: UnitGroup - Pick every unit in (Units within 512.00(Your Area of the Flamestrike)) of (Target point of ability being cast)) and do (Actions)
  • Actions
  • YOUR ACTIONS

I think more work is needed but I understand it better in that way

That ... leaks - one location and one unit group per cast.
If you wonder what leaks are, search for a tutorial.
But I am going to give you a little hint - if you do not want your map to lag or crash wc3, avoid leaks(clean them up).

ok i tried it with this one

function Trig_Flammensaeule_Actions takes nothing returns nothing

    local location loc = GetSpellTargetLoc()
    local group targets = CreateGroup()
    local unit temp
    local real level = I2R( GetUnitAbilityLevel(udg_Master_Of_Flame, 'A006') )
    call GroupEnumUnitsInRangeOfLoc(targets, loc, 200.0, null)
    loop
        set temp = FirstOfGroup(targets)
        exitwhen temp == null 
             //my actions
    endloop

endfunction

found the problem.
