Some WC3 versions spam the screen with red errors if double freeing occur.
Don't fix that, and you'd be getting a review telling no one to use the spell...

I already mentioned that I really do like this spell, but you've got to fix it.

Gd luck with that! :)

Yeah definately a great spell, my holidays kinda screwed me, taking 2 days of time, which i definately needed for fixing leaks.
Meh, I wasn't even able to read the thread again after returning, so I'll congratulate you here.
Anyway you seem to be pretty proud of yourself, don't you (look at filename)?

Only thing to complain is the roar effect, not quite fitting the fire IMO, but else than that nice spell.

Btw, I'll upload my (fixed) spell soon ;D

Deut, mind showing and explaining me those double-frees?
I think it's something about double removing locations or so, but I'm not quite sure.
 
If I set FS_AoE to 900, how come the effects don't go out 900? Making things look weird, they are being pushed by nothing.

I also think you should comment your configurables more.

He is right, meaby make dummy size, dummy speed, dummy range from "axis" of spell to depend from AoE?

I dont like Battle Roar Effect you put, but it is changeble. I will give you 5/5 because it is easy fixeble :)
Good Job! :thumbs_up:

Looks great, but it wont go into my map without giving me trouble, the "FS_Index" variable is the problem, I don't understand what is wrong with it!

It doesn't work for me D: i copied over the 4 triggers and the dummy unit, along with sphere, and the 2 spells (stun and orb of fire), and when i cast it in game, nothing happens : / and its gonna take like 3 hours to check every piece of the triggering between my map and the one i imported the spell from, is there a faster way?
