Problem with pick every unit...

[TheBlueOne]

I've tried to make a spell that damaged all oponent units in 300 around the casting unit. So I made a Trigger witch works every time the unit cast the spell.
I made the Trigger

• Unitgroup - pick every unit in 300 around the casting unit and do actions
  • if unit owned by playerx do (Couse (unit) to damage (picked unit), dealing (6*level of ability) damage of attacktype spell and damagetype normal

And everytime I tried it the game out automatick. Then i tried it with damage in area and set it so 20 and the same happens. Then i've tried it with an variable for "6*level of ability" at both, but the same happens. I hope someone can help me.

Who is (unit)?
Casting unit?

What is (ability)?
Ability being cast?

Try to use pick all units in range matching condition instead of following up with an IF.

 

[TheBlueOne]

Yes and yes

Thats an good idea, but what should I set the matching condition?
(owner of ( ? unit) equil player 1)
It isn't picket yet and triggered unit is at this moment the caster.

Edit: I've tasted it with picked unit and nothing happend and with triggered unit it crashed.

(owner of ( matching unit) equel to player i)

 

[terradont]

Yeah, Matching unit is used in the matching part. Be sure to refer to it as picked unit after the matching.

 

[TheBlueOne]

Yeah I'vetried like you said, but it's likeeverytime. I think its about the damage that it's crashed.

 

[terradont]

Post a map with your trigger

 

[TheBlueOne]

Ok here it is:

 

[terradont]

I found where the error occurs:

• Actions
  • Trigger - Add to Donation of Justice Effect <gen> the event (Unit - (Attacked unit) Takes damage)

I don't know why, but this makes the game crash.

 

[TheBlueOne]

That could be, but exactly that funktion is used for the invisWards at this site i've looked at for that spell.

 

[terradont]

Yes, as i said, i don't have any clue why it wouldn't work.
It could be something with the condition of the other trigger, but i merged the 2 triggers and it worked fine with the exeption that i used 'unit is attacked'

 

[TheBlueOne]

I've found a way to solf the problem with the crash (I've add only a wait 0.01 seconds), but now I have a new problem.
The Trigger makes damage what starts the trigger from new. Then it's endless.
I need a condition what see which unit makes the damage and one that see which damage typ it is.

 

[terradont]

(damaging unit) is equal to (your attacker)

On the other one i'm not too sure.

 

[TheBlueOne]

Or it's better to have something that check if it's the attack and not the damage of the spell.

 

[idodik]

The correct functioning of the spell would be to make the action like this:

• Actions
  • Unit Group - Pick every unit in (Units within 300.00 of (Casting Unit) matching (Owner of (Matching Unit) is an enemy of (Owner of (Casting Unit)) equal to true)) and do (Multiple Actions)
    • Actions
      • Unit - Cause (Casting Unit) to damage (Picked Unit), dealing X damage of type X
      • -------- Blablabla --------

The function you made terminates when even one of the units within the casting unit is an ally or neutral.
The looping is probably a result of wrong events, please post them.

Thanks for the replay but I forgot only to to clear the variable so this is solved
