1. You trigger it? Not quite sure what you're asking.
2. You could use a damage detection system. There isn't any way to detect whether the damage comes from a spell or normal attack, or from hich spell the damage comes from. You would need to trigger all damage in your map.

Your spell should look like this:

Trig

• Lightning Burst
  • Events
    • Unit - A unit Starts the effect of an ability
  • Conditions
    • (Ability being cast) Equal to Lightning Burst
  • Actions
    • Set point = (Target point of ability being cast)
    • If (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions)
      • If - Conditions
        • (Level of Lighting burst for (Triggering unit)) Equal to 1
      • Then - Actions
        • Special Effect - Create a special effect attached to the origin of (Target unit of ability being cast) using Abilities\Spells\Human\Thunderclap\ThunderClapCaster.mdl
        • Unit - Cause (Triggering unit) to damage circular area after 0.50 seconds of radius 600.00 at point, dealing 30.00 damage of attack type Spells and damage type Magic
        • Wait 10.00 seconds
      • Else - Actions
        • If (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions)
          • If - Conditions
            • (Level of Lighting burst for (Triggering unit)) Equal to 2
          • Then - Actions
            • Special Effect - Create a special effect attached to the origin of (Target unit of ability being cast) using Abilities\Spells\Human\Thunderclap\ThunderClapCaster.mdl
            • Unit - Cause (Triggering unit) to damage circular area after 0.50 seconds of radius 650.00 at point, dealing 40.00 damage of attack type Spells and damage type Magic
          • Else - Actions
            • If (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions)
              • If - Conditions
                • (Level of Lighting burst for (Triggering unit)) Equal to 3
              • Then - Actions
                • Special Effect - Create a special effect attached to the origin of (Target unit of ability being cast) using Abilities\Spells\Human\Thunderclap\ThunderClapCaster.mdl
                • Unit - Cause (Triggering unit) to damage circular area after 0.50 seconds of radius 725.00 at point, dealing 55.00 damage of attack type Spells and damage type Magic
              • Else - Actions
        • Wait 15.00 seconds
    • Special Effect - Destroy (Last created special effect)
    • Custom script: call RemoveLocation(udg_point)

Read about leaks:http://www.hiveworkshop.com/forums/triggers-scripts-269/things-leak-35124/

However that wait isn't really acceptable triggering. If you create any other effect before you destroy the effect created here, you ill cause a leak since you have no way of destroying that effect.

thanks alot .i trigger cause i dont know how to jass,vjass or any kind of jass
Anyways i just followed the "deprotected old DotA [Growth {skill of tiny}]" trigger.
1 more thing

where can i find that [Set point = (Target point of ability being cast)]
Cause it seems i cant find the ["Set Point = (Target of ability being cast")
is the word "point" a variable
please just tell me where to find this and i aint gonna ask anything to you again...maybe



wish i dont get another neutral rep again for saying deprotected maps


Oh yeah 1 more thing,what is the difference between Vjass and Jass script?

Yes, point is a variable that you need to create.
