Spawns a few images of the hero equal to the number of enemies in the casting area. Every image will rush forward until it fades. Enemies that get in contact of one of this images will proc an unstable current that cause an explosion of damage on them in a tiny AoE (90). If no enemies are nearby, the spell won't have any effect, mana will be consumed and cooldown will trigger anyway.

Level 1 - 450 AoE, each pulse deals 25-75 damage.

Level 2 - 575 AoE, each pulse deals 75-125 damage.

Level 3 - Level 3 - 675 AoE, each pulse deals 125-200 damage.

  • Set RA_DummyGroup[RA_Times] = (Units within RA_Aoe[RA_Times] of RA_Location[RA_Times] matching (((((Matching unit) is A structure) Equal to False) and (((Matching unit) is alive) Equal to True)) and (((Matching unit) belongs to an enemy of RA_Player[RA_Times]) Equal to True)))
you forgot to check for magic immune units in this action;)

other than that spell is MUI and leak-less gj 4/5 :thumbs_up:

@BeTaGod-, are you using any particular spell template to index the spell?
You don't need arrays on every single variable, such as (Position of (Picked unit)); it will normally loop through them, without any collisions.

Yup, i create every new spell from the previous one.. so variables are just modified to fit. I will work on an update now :)


RA_DummyGroup[RA_Times] leaks.

I see.. thanks for pointing that out! Will fix it soon :grin:
