Need help with a combo trigger.

[mario_64]

Well what this is supposed to do is some sort of combo.

I cast attack1, then attack2 adds to my spells and replaces attack1 you have 1 second to cast attack2 or it resets back to attack1 1,then when I use attack2, attack3 adds and replaces attack2 I have 1 second to cast attack1 or it resets to attack1, if attack3 is casted then it just resets to attack1 again.

Here is my current trigger but it doesnt work, btw MUI help would be welcome.

combo is very hard to do and very hard to learn

what exactly is not working properly?

Try giving the hero a buff that lasts 1 second when he casts the spell and remove that buff and give the attack 3 buff etc.
Then, you check which buff the hero has a run the correct trigger.
For example, you cast attack 1, you gain a buff Attack which lasts 1 second. Then, you check if you have that buff when you casts Attack and if you do, run Attack 2 trigger or use an IF/THEN/ELSE or whatever.
You should probably create the spell based off whatever and get a dummy unit to cast it. Just change the level of the spell based on which Combo you are at.
To detect the level of the buff, I could probably create a simple custom script for you to detect it with ease.

I am not near my pc (where I have JASSCraft), so I will just explain things you have to do:

function trigger takes nothing returns nothing
if you cast attack 2 then
          - get attached timer
          - destroy timer
endunction

function timerexpired takes nothing returns nothing
         -get unit attached to timer
         -remove both attack 1 and 2
         -add attack 1
endfunction

function actions takes nothing returns nothing
-attack detected
if you cast = attack 1 then
         -remove attack 1
         -add attack 2
if you cast = attack 2 then
         -remove attack 2
         -add attack 3
-create timer
-attach unit to timer (HandleVars), 1.00 period, one shot
if you cast attack 2 then
         - make trigger which fires if attack 3 is casted 
         - attach timer to trigger
endfunction

In fact, it is quite simple to make and is MUI.

aslo if you can make it regular jass and not vjass that would be great, thanks
