My problem is this! :vw_sad:

When the Hook targets an enemy, the enemy comes to the caster but the dummys aren't killed/exploded/removed :S :ogre_rage:

Can anyone answerme the solution? or fix the map? :ogre_haosis:

MMM. I just want to when the hook ends, it comes to the hero, removing the dummys

By the way, I think you should use new indexing system to avoid bug. Some bug may occur for certain condition if you use this indexing. Well, it's not necessary to change the indexing system if you it functions well.
But, array should be avoided if it isn't needed such as the index variable.

If you want to change the indexing system, check the "Recommended" section under my signature.

In my opinion, try not to use array of unit group.

Bannar · Oct 9, 2011

I wasn't looking on script carefully right now but I hear "group array" in GUI - and in 99% cases most GUI-users don't know what array groups have to be initialized at first - if you don't, given group doesn't exist (though groups with index [0] and [1] are declared at map init).

So before doing anything about group manipulation actually, you should do:

Custom script: if udg_Group[udg_Index[1]] == null then
Custom script: set udg_Group[udg_Index[1]] = CreateGroup()
Custom script: endif
// and then the group manipulation
Unit Group - Pick every unit in Group[Index[1]] and do (Actions)

You should be using Dynamic indexing instead of this old, inefficient indexing system.
