So, i have a unit that casts an ability based on Death and Decay, and i have triggered the ability aswell, to make a dummy cast a non damaging earthquake for the effect and the slow.
but i want to trigger that when the unit stops channeling, the dummy is removed.
that works.
but when multiple units use the ability at same time and one disrupt it, i get problems. Can someone help me with my triggering?
and please, no jass if posssible.

Use generic unit event, unit stops casting an ability.

  • Untitled Trigger 046
    • Events
      • Unit - A unit Stops casting an ability
    • Conditions
      • (Ability being cast) Equal to Starfall
    • Actions
      • Game - Display to Player Group - Player 1 (Red) the text: stop
Use either a unit indexer (Bribe's unit indexer) or a hashtable to bind the dummy to the caster.

Here's a very simple example: http://www.hiveworkshop.com/forums/pastebin.php?id=hnp2rd

I didn't even remove leaks.
