Need to create a simple spell but it HAS to be in MUI

[BlackEnvyX]

Basically I have a very specific need for this spell.
It's called "Throw Rope" (Hotkey P)

What it does is, the casting unit throws a rope up to 400 range away (you must have explored where you throw it and it cannot be on top of a place you wouldn't be able to blink to), you wait 10 seconds (text will appear to just the casting player saying "just a few more seconds and the rope will be strong enough to climb"), and then the casting unit climbs across.

It needs to be MUI and MPI because every player on my map will have this skill.
It needs to be a one level unit ability (not hero) and it needs to cost 2 mana to use, with a cooldown of two minutes.

Also please don't use "temploc" or any variety for a location variable, as I'm using that already. Can you use something like "ropeloc" or something along those lines.

I attempted to do it myself, and it just didn't work, it glitched and the casting unit got stuck.

If anyone could help me that would be great!

Don't worry, that's why their name is "temp", because you use the variable for temporary purpose (no delay/wait).

With that said, you can use TempLoc variable for more than 1 triggers with condition: the nature of the trigger must be instant trigger, no wait/delay.

On to the Throw Rope;
1. While waiting for 10 seconds, does the caster channeling the spell, or simply throw it, and the caster can do whatever he wants in that period ?
2. What do you meant by "and then the casting unit climbs across." ? Does the caster will follow the trail of the rope or you simply want the caster to be instantly teleported to the target position ?
3. Also, what is the status for the "climbing" unit ? Paused ? Stunned ? Invulnerable ?

1. He's channeling the spell (aka preparing to throw the rope, and no he can't)
2. He's instantly teleported to the target position, but without any special effects
3. Paused

Is this not just Blink (w/o special effects) with a cast time?

You can make trigger that puts your message when this spell is used

The comment was bumped after 24 hours. It's in the rules. As for your spell, I believe it was said, just use a blink spell with a cast time and trigger it to send the message. Otherwise you're just coding for the sake of it.

Thank you so much! Credits will be given on my map! I'd rep you but it won't let me.

Can someone tell me what is the meaning of MUI?

Multi User Instanceable (or something along those lines)
Basically it means that multiple users can use the spell at the same time without it breaking. Which is very useful when a ton of units share the same skill. (At least that's what I've always known it to be)

What’s MUI?
MUI stands for Multi Unit Instanceable, and simply put this means that two or more units are able to trigger a specific trigger at the same time, performing the triggers actions for each triggering units. To understand MUI, we must also understand how a trigger works. A trigger consist of events, conditions, and actions. When the trigger registers the event, and it’s conditions evaluates true, the triggers actions gets executed. The game engine then creates a new trigger in the old triggers place, containing the same events, conditions, and actions. This means that the “same” trigger can be triggered even if it’s still being executed.
