[Trigger] how do i trigger this spell out (low difficulty)

[oxxo]

so basically this is what i want:

a spell that launches a projectile, that travels a certain distance and then vanishes. upon contact with enemy units, the unit is "frozen" by a stun and pause-unit combination.

this is what i worked out:

i use a dummy unit for the projectile, giving it the locust ability. the basics of the spell are not difficult to figure out.

what i dont know is how to detect when a unit comes close enough to the projectile (dummy-projectile-unit)

anyone can help me out ?

Dont try to check how far a unit is away,,
Pick every unit within 100 range of DummyProject

That'll work out ^^

ok its actually the only way i think.

but when pausing a unit, to emulate "freeze", how do i set the unit to unpause after say 2 seconds, without having to store the unit in an variable?

 

[Yixx]

I think storing it in a unit group, and every 0.5 secs, if the group is not empty, set the custom value, and when that is 4 (4 x 0.5 = 2,, easy) unpause?
Only way i could think of now

hm... true dat.

thank you should probably work that way
