- I think the missle offset should be constant and not based on the ability level.
Im curious. In the FadeSystem you do null a global unit variable, but in thundershot you don't null TS_Caster[TS_MaxIndex], which would be much more important, if you want to get rid of all potential handle leaks.
The loop can be optimized. Basically you perform the same action when the minimum distance is reached or the target is dead.
Your task is now to find a way to merge these two conditions into one

you will never get rid of all all all leaks, not even in Jass, not to mention vJass, because there are many generated things you cant clean, and I dont think teaching GUIers to null agents just to not leak 4 bytes isnt important, they should learn programming before that imo
I agree on the condition part, around 1/2 of the trigger can be merged
