A wrote a simple (as I thought) trigger, that was expected to add some Ice Novas during Blizzard.

I'm creating 2 dummies that periodicaly cast Ice Novas at enemies at cast point.

Now I need to stop Ice Novas from being casted as soos as AM stops casting Blizzard.
I decided to simply remove dummies from target point:

I can see the red ping — position is read correctly — but I dont see the blue ping.

How can it be?

Units with the locust ability are not picked by "units within range/region". I assume this is the case, because it is a dummy unit.
You can either add the dummies to a dummy group when you create them (recommended) or use other group enumerations like units owned by player.

Oh much thanks!

I've removed Locust ability from Dummy (Blizzard) and it worked. Surprisingly well actually, I still cannot detect these units in the game.

But I'll use one of your methods for convinience.

By the way, should I remove dummy from Dummy_Group in the first place or just straightforwardly remove it from the game?
