i have already posted something similar too this but i did not make myself clear enough. i do not need a spell i just need advice on how to make these spells. so heres my question.

How do i make an MUI spell that is casted from a building/unit that will instant-target your hero and will be leakless as possible?

its not the spells themself thats the problem its the targeting, setup, and leak cleanup that i need help with.

and examples of these spells is like AoE heal, AoE mana Replenish, Added Attack speed, ect

What?

First of all
its not the spells themself thats the problem its the targeting, setup, and leak cleanup that i need help with.

define the "spells themself" cuz u did after saying "not the spells themselfs, but"

and theres tutorials here for that! :)

Maker, can you post here? i want to steal your signature link.

nvm.

i need help with targeting, i am not sure how to do MUI, if it was just 1 player then i could do it. but with multiple players i do not know how to keep track of whos who and what spells what. even with arrays i dont know how too clean up the variables and select certain spells

ugh lol, not what i ment. this is harder too explain than i thought it would be. i ment cast spell on hero when you press spell.

basicly the spell that you cast is a dummy spell and the real spell is casted from a dummy unit on your hero or around your hero.
 
do you understand what MUI means?, it means Multi-Instanceable, means
your spell can be casted by several units at the same time without bugging...

if you want to cleanup, then I suggest read Things That Leak...

if you want your spell to be MUI, learn to apply Hashtables, Dynamic Indexing or UnitIndexer, earch it in the spells section...

if you want the dummy to be a custom missile, ask someone to do it for you...
