" Wait 0.10 seconds
Unit - Remove (Last created unit) from the game"

What if a unit is created before those 0.10 seconds? Then you're going to remove it and not your dummy unit.

Add a timed life to the dummy unit instead.

This should be exactly what you want:

• Acid Arrow
  • Events
    • Unit - Demon Archer 0042 <gen> Starts the effect of an ability
  • Conditions
    • (Ability being cast) Equal to Acid Arrow
  • Actions
    • Custom script: local unit udg_target = GetSpellTargetUnit()
    • Custom script: local location udg_point = GetUnitLoc(udg_target)
    • Custom script: local unit udg_u
    • Wait 2.00 seconds
    • Unit - Create 1 Dummy-2 for Player 8 (Pink) at point facing Default building facing degrees
    • Set u = (Last created unit)
    • Unit - Order u to Neutral Alchemist - Acid Bomb target
    • Wait 0.10 seconds
    • Unit - Remove u from the game
    • Custom script: call RemoveLocation (udg_point)

Maybe you lose the variable "Target point of ability being cast" or "Target unit of ability being cast"...

Try this:

• Untitled Trigger 001
  • Events
    • Unit - A unit Starts the effect of an ability
  • Conditions
    • (Ability being cast) Equal to Entangling Arrow
  • Actions
    • Custom script: local location udg_TempLocation
    • Custom script: local unit udg_TempUnit
    • Set TempLocation = (Target point of ability being cast)
    • Set TempUnit = (Target unit of ability being cast)
    • Wait 2.00 game-time seconds
    • Unit - Create 1 DUMMY for Neutral Extra at TempLocation facing Default building facing degrees
    • Set TempUnit2 = (Last created unit)
    • Unit - Order TempUnit2 to Night Elf Keeper Of The Grove - Entangling Roots TempUnit
    • Unit - Add a 1.00 second Generic expiration timer to TempUnit2
    • Custom script: call RemoveLocation(udg_TempLocation)
    • Custom script: set udg_TempLocation = null
    • Custom script: set udg_TempUnit = null

But anyway... why do you want that wait?

EDIT:
@Gismo359
Yea you got the basics.
To tell you the difference between ours
Yours leak units and a location.
You seem familiar with the RemoveLocation() function but I mean local variables.
When you create a local variable, you create data (pointer).
You have to null that pointer again to remove that data.
All you have to do is just set the variables to null again.

Also never ever use normal waits (unless you really know what they do).
The waits that you use are not paused when the game is.
So you can create a wait for 30 seconds, pause the game, wait 30 seconds in reallife, unpause the game, and you will see that the wait has finished immediately.

 

[fireblasts]

A arrow that is thrown at an enemy unit dealing 100 + 20 per level , stuning the target and after 2 seconds the arrow will blow up in the target's area causing 10 dmage per second and reducing the targets armor by 2 to all hit units

ty wietlol that helped alot +rep and gis as well

[nedio95]

Another thing about waits, they have a minimal duration of ~0.27 sec and are very inaccurate as they always add some time on top of it (I do not remember exactly how much but if you search the forum you will probably find it).

 

[Wietlol]

Why don't you use a Damage Detection System, Missile System or Alternative Damage-Engine to make the event?
Then you can make the blast after 2 seconds of when the arrow hits its target... at least if you want that.

Yeah, didnt think about removing leaks. Also, I'm pretty sure a removed location is already null.

 

[Wietlol]

Well... the location is removed but there is still someone who redirects/points to that "location".
That is the local variable.
As long as a variable is pointing to something, that variable is using data.
When you set the variable to null, you remove that reserved piece of data.

Global variables do not have to be nulled, because they get overwritten anyway.

 

[Gismo359]

What I meant is that when removed, the location is nulled, so you dont need to do it again.

 

[Wietlol]

Well for units for example you have to do it... for locations though... I actually don't know if they leak pointers.
