[Trigger] need help with ability trigger

[[K40$]-Spectre]

Hi there, could somebody help me to fix the following trigger, it works except it doesn't summon the Spirit of Vengeance, and I'm aware that there are leaks in it and which they are:

• Dimension Warp
  • Events
    • Unit - A unit Begins casting an ability
  • Conditions
    • (Ability being cast) Equal to Dimension Warp
  • Actions
    • Wait 0.20 seconds
    • Unit - Move (Target unit of ability being cast) instantly to ((Position of (Target unit of ability being cast)) offset by 300.00 towards (Random angle) degrees)
    • Wait 2.00 seconds
    • If (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions)
      • If - Conditions
        • ((Target unit of ability being cast) is dead) Equal to True
      • Then - Actions
        • Unit - Create 1 Spirit of Vengeance for (Owner of (Casting unit)) at (Position of (Dying unit)) facing (Facing of (Dying unit)) degrees
        • Wait 0.10 game-time seconds
        • Unit Group - Pick every unit in (Units owned by (Owner of (Casting unit)) of type Spirit of Vengeance) and do (Actions)
          • Loop - Actions
            • Unit - Set level of Power for (Picked unit) to (2 x (Level of Dimension Warp for (Casting unit)))
      • Else - Actions
        • Do nothing

, thanks for taking the time.

Replace <dying unit> with <target unit of ability being cast>. Dying unit needs "Event - unit dies" to work.

I think the 0.10 wait is pointless, so is that do nothing.

I hope you're aware that if two units cast this spell almost at the same time, it will bug.

, I changed those things but it still doesn't summon the spirit.

try triggering unit instead of casting unit.

And if you use "starts the effect of an ability" for the event rather than "begins casting an ability," then you don't need the 0.2 wait. When you use "begins casting" it's also exploitable by letting the trigger run without the spell actually being cast, if the player does a stop order.

So always use "a unit starts the effect of an ability" instead of "a unit begins casting an ability"

try to save the caster and target of cast into a variable...
the event response of casting unit and target unit of ability being cast won't work after a wait, so it need to be saved into variable.

, yeah it worked, thanks so much, I would +rep you if I could.

, thanks for the tip, +rep
