so where is the problem?

You don't turn of the Else making it pick every unit and keep damaging it for 100 damage each 0.01 seconds? xD
And I think that the Pick every unit... action is kinda bugged aswell, it also picks your allies? xD (Not sure about that one though.)

You should also clean the leak that the pick every unit thing makes.

 

[Shanghai]

still need help with this spell.

• Unit Group - Pick every unit in (Units within 100.00 of TW_DashPoint matching (TW_Unit Not equal to (Matching unit))) and do (Actions)
• Loop - Actions
• Unit - Cause TW_Unit to damage (Picked unit), dealing 100.00 damage of attack type Normal and damage type Normal

Thats your issue. Every 0.01 seconds of the game, everyone within 100 range of TW_DashPoint (Including your allies) Takes 100 damage.

To fix this, simple change it to this:

• Unit Group - Pick every unit in (Units within 100.00 of TW_DashPoint matching ( (Matching unit)) is an enemy of Tw_Unit) and do (Actions)

This will make it select only enemies. Also, I suggest not using the event "Every 0.01 seconds" as it not only lags, but will basically kill anything in your map that this spell hits. If you were going for 100 damage every second, change it to "Every 1 second".

i made it like this now it doesent work he dont move ? i mean the unit :S he move 1 mm a sec ? whats wrong?

 

[Kwah]

In what direction is the angle. I can't see you setting it in this trigger. I have a hard time reading it to the res on my computer though.

 

[Shanghai]

what u mean?

 

[Angry_Bovine]

What exactly is this spell supposed to do? If it's what I think it is, I believe I have an easier solution for you.

 

[Shanghai]

its suposed to do a time walk and when he hits the enemy damage them

 

[Angry_Bovine]

I don't really know what time walking does.

i made it like this now it doesent work he dont move ? i mean the unit :S he move 1 mm a sec ? whats wrong?

Right now you have it where every 1 second, he moves to TW_Dashpoint. The simplest way to fix this is to make a third trigger, that basically does:

Trigger 3 (Initially off)

• Events
• Time - Every 0.01 seconds of game time
• Conditions
• Actions -
  • Set TW_TrigUnitPoint = (Position of TW_Unit)
  • Set TW_DashPoint = (TW_TrigUnitPoint offset by 15.00 towards TW_Angle degrees)
    • Unit - Move TW_Unit instantly to TW_DashPoint
  • Set TW_DistanceTraveled = (TW_DistanceTraveled + 15.00)
  • Custom script: call RemoveLocation(udg_TW_TrigUnitPoint)
  • Custom script: call RemoveLocation(udg_TW_DashPoint)

And remove those from your second trigger.

Have your first trigger turn this trigger on, and have your second trigger turn it off along with the Turn Off (This Trigger) action.
