Getting the right angle

[lordsent]

hi. I want to be able to tell the AI that controlls a hero to Aim at a target (A) and target (B) if posible using a spell in a straight line (like suriken).

Soo If the Hero is here == Target (A) === Target (B)

counting that the line spell has like 100 area of dmg.

If you are trying to shoot in a straight line then just get the facing angle of the unit then offset a point every 0.03 seconds. Check for units in whatever radius you want to new point then damage them.

Sounds like raytracing to me. I don't really know how to do it though.

point by offset is the thing you seem to be looking for. If you're using GUI atleast.

You could pick nearby targets, then form a line segment from caster and through the individual target and check the units close to that line segment.
