done. i used UnitIndexer

you can configure :
Damages = simplespellExplodeDamages[cv]
Radius = simplespellRadius[cv]

just change the dummy model to change the missile.

sorry i didnt see this before, after a lot of searching i finnaly found a spell that had what i wanted, i wasnt able to figure out how to stop the dummy at the location where you click

( simplespellCurrentDistances[cv] Greater than or equal to simplespellDistances[cv])

^ thats what i was missing

and your spell seems to be perfect, it also works when many units are casting it at the same time, thanks!
