GUI Trigger problems (event: A unit is attacked)

[XxNiNjAsHaDoWxX]

Hey, I've got several spells in my game that are set to trigger every time a unit that has a specific item attacks. To be more specific, any time a unit that has this item attacks, a dummy unit is spawned that fires a forked lightning at the attacked unit.

The problem I'm having is that I've found that this can be easily abused by stopping the attack the moment the animation starts to fire the forked lightning without completing an attack.

Any help that given is appreciated ^_^

This has been a big issue with

• Unit - unit is attacked

for years in Warcraft 3 Modding, the best solution is a Damage Detection System.

Below are ones that I recommend :

Thanks so much man, I really appreciate it

EDIT: I've installed the system but am unsure of how to use it as my GUI triggers use the "Attacking"/"Attacked" unit as a basis for their targets, so if I use the "DamageEvent equals 1.00" event, then there is no attacking or attacked unit for the conditions or actions to refer to

variable "source" is the attacking unit.
variable "target" is the attacked unit.
