[Trigger] Help me fix a trigger spell

[Germain_Beoluve]

This is my first time to post a topic here, and i'm quite new with world editor.

So apparently i tried to make a trigger spell, i could say that it is.... half working.

The idea is a aoe spell that damage and pause the unit for several time, so i created this trigger



the damage is working, but the pause is not working and i can't apply a buff to targeted unit.

Can u guys help me to fix the trigger please?

First of all, you can just post the triggers with [trigger]CnP your trigger here[/trigger] tags

• Do not use Unit Group - Pick every unit in (...) and do (...)
  Use the one with block instead.
• Do nothing is basically meaningless as it does absolutely nothing.
• It is advised to store your location (Target point of ability being cast) into a variable and destroy it later.
• Using wait and pause unit is not recommended.

i dont understand, after all this is my first time to create trigger or something like that

The function you're using is a single action, meaning it will only do one action. In your case, you order the last created unit to damage the picked unit.. So when you try to pause (Picked unit), the unit will return null because nothing is getting "picked."

Do what Rheiko suggested and use the "Multiple Action" version of the unit group function.

Also, in the future, use [trigger][/trigger] tags to post your triggers instead of taking a screenshot. Refer to this thread if you do not understand what I mean.

 

[Rheiko]

You need to use

Unit Group - Pick every unit in (Units in (Playable map area)) and do (Actions) Loop - Actions

So the pause unit can work. Remove the Do Nothing part. I don't know when and how did you apply your buff because of the screenshot.

Post your trigger using the tags I mentioned. If you don't understand how to post the triggers, try to read this - https://www.hiveworkshop.com/forums/miscellaneous-tutorials-456/how-easily-post-triggers-163285/
