[Trigger] How do you make this SIMPLE trigger to work?

[Vicboy]

Wow, this trigger... Nothing wrong with it right? WRONG! Somethings wrong!!!

• Impaling Roots
  • Events
    • Unit - A unit Begins channeling an ability
  • Conditions
    • (Ability being cast) Equal to (==) Impaling Roots
  • Actions
    • Set impalingrootscastingunit = (Casting unit)
    • Set impalingrootstarget = (Target point of ability being cast)
    • Unit - Pause impalingrootscastingunit
    • Animation - Play impalingrootscastingunit's Morph animation
    • Wait 2.56 seconds
    • Set impalingrootsunitgroup = (Units within 200.00 of impalingrootstarget matching (((Matching unit) belongs to an enemy of (Owner of impalingrootscastingunit)) Equal to (==) True))
    • Unit Group - Pick every unit in impalingrootsunitgroup and do (Actions)
      • Loop - Actions
        • Unit - Cause impalingrootscastingunit to damage (Picked unit), dealing (100.00 x (Real((Level of Impaling Roots for impalingrootscastingunit)))) damage of attack type Spells and damage type Normal
      • Do Multiple ActionsFor each (Integer A) from 1 to 18, do (Actions)
        • Loop - Actions
          • Do Multiple ActionsFor each (Integer B) from 1 to 10, do (Actions)
            • Loop - Actions
              • Set impalingrootspoint = (impalingrootstarget offset by (20.00 x (Real((Integer B)))) towards (20.00 x (Real((Integer A)))) degrees)
              • Special Effect - Create a special effect at impalingrootspoint using Abilities\Spells\Undead\Impale\ImpaleHitTarget.mdl
              • Special Effect - Destroy (Last created special effect)
    • Unit - Unpause impalingrootscastingunit
    • Animation - Play impalingrootscastingunit's Morph Alternate animation
    • Unit Group - Destroy unit group impalingrootsunitgroup
    • Point - Remove impalingrootspoint

What it does is:

*Sets some variables so it can work in waits (Sadly)
*Pauses the Casting Unit (Ancient Protector(Night Elf Tree))
*Plays the Root Down animation
*Attacks the Units in a range with a repeated effect of Impale
*Unroots it self
*Unpauses it self. <NOT WORKING>

How do I make that thing work???

As I remember Pause-Unpause is buggy with buildings
Try making your building based on an unit
like Copy footman and change Stats - Is a building to true
or make it a unit with 0 moment

 

[Vicboy]

It's not a building... It's a hero...

A hero did not start as a building btw...

 

[Need_O2]

:/ wow that is purely strange
I tought maybe there is a thread crash but I cannot see one

 

[Vicboy]

Thread crash???

I've heard that Casting Unit or Target Point (?) does not work after Waits have been used...

But, I used variables and I've passed most of the actions after the wait.

Someone help!!!

 

[UreDe4D]

have you tried using triggering unit instead of a variable, cause this also doesn't get lost after waits

 

[Vicboy]

I did... Fail...

Plus, I don't think the values are lost...

It's just something that I have mistaken... But where?

DAMN it!!!

 

[Need_O2]

Try Changing the position of action
it must be a WC3 bug

 

[Vicboy]

Whatcha mean???

 

[x3m]

Perhaps you can't pause the unit. If pause stops all actions of unit, so will the channeling stop.

 

[Need_O2]

Like put unpause to bellow everything

 

[Vicboy]

Perhaps you can't pause the unit. If pause stops all actions of unit, so will the channeling stop.

Hmm, I think I have already marked the unit as the caster so it won't need to ask who is casting cause its been recorded already.

Like put unpause to bellow everything

Below all the stuff after wait? Nope, won't work...
