Usage:
* Note: Be sure to enable "Automatically create unknown variables while pasting trigger data" on the General tab of your World Editor Preferences.
- Copy the whole Shadow Paralysis folder to your map.
- Configure everything listed in the REQUIRED VARIABLES section.


* v1.0 - initial release
* v1.1 - Reworked the whole code.
* v1.2 - Fixed some leaks on SP Loop Trigger.
* v1.3 - Fixed issues with SP EndCall and is now fully MUI.
* v1.4 - Optimized several variables and also added few configurations.

Only use and all condition blocks inside an or all condition block.

Anything used twice or more should be stored in a variable and the variable should be used. Example: Picked unit should be stored.

These leak locations.
  • (Distance between (Position of SP_Caster[SP_Loop_Integer]) and (Position of SP_DummyVar[SP_Loop_Integer])) Less than SP_Distance[SP_Loop_Integer]
  • Set SP_SpawnPoint[SP_Loop_Integer] = ((Position of SP_DummyVar[SP_Loop_Integer]) offset by 35.00 towards SP_Angle[SP_Loop_Integer] degrees)
  • Set SP_Detector[SP_Loop_Integer] = (Units within DetectRadius of (Position of SP_Shadow[SP_Loop_Integer]))
  • Set SP_Angle[SP_Index] = (Angle from (Position of SP_Caster[SP_Index]) to SP_Target[SP_Index])
You also never remove the locations that you set so all of them leak.

Never use Integer A/B. Create an integer variable and use that for your looping.

Also abilities should be able to have multiple levels.
 
  • Custom Script: call SetUnitPropWindow( SP_Shadow[SP_Loop_Integer], 0)
To enable movement once more, do
  • Custom script: call GetUnitDefaultWindow( SP_Shadow[SP_Loop_Integer] )

You have to get the units prop window first and set it to a variable then you have to set the units prop window.

Getting the units default prop window is bugged and can cause unwanted results.
 
You have location leaks.

You store picked unit in a variable above this but you should use it in these conditions.
  • ((Picked unit) is A structure) Equal to False
  • ((Picked unit) is in SP_Paralyzed[SP_Integer[1]]) Equal to False
  • ((Picked unit) is alive) Equal to True
  • (Picked unit) Not equal to SP_Caster[SP_Integer[1]]
  • (Unit-type of (Picked unit)) Not equal to DummyId
  • ((Picked unit) belongs to an enemy of (Owner of SP_Caster[SP_Integer[1]])) Equal to True
This should be in your de-indexing code.
  • If (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions)
  • If - Conditions
  • SP_Integer[0] Equal to 0
  • Then - Actions
  • Trigger - Turn off (This trigger)
  • Else - Actions
You should include a changelog so people know what you fixed.
Never rename a version from 1.0 to 1.0[reworked] What is your next version ? 1.0[reworked again] ?
Just name it v1.1
 
There are some leaks.
  • Set SP_Angle[SP_Integer[0]] = (Angle from (Position of SP_Caster[SP_Integer[0]]) to SP_Target[SP_Integer[0]])
  • (Distance between SP_StartDistance[SP_Integer[1]] and (Position of SP_Last[SP_Integer[1]])) Less than SP_EndDistance[SP_Integer[1]]
  • Set SP_Point[SP_Integer[1]] = ((Position of SP_Last[SP_Integer[1]]) offset by 35.00 towards SP_Angle[SP_Integer[1]] degrees)
    • Set SP_Group2[SP_Integer[1]] = (Units within 45.00 of (Position of SP_Picked[SP_Integer[1]]))
This should be stored in a variable as it will most likely be used more than once.
  • (SP_DPS[SP_Level[SP_Integer[1]]] x 0.03)
  • /// And this.
  • (SP_MPS[SP_Level[SP_Integer[1]]] x 0.03)
  • /// And this.
    • (Owner of SP_Caster[SP_Integer[1]]))
You should use a tempGroup instead of SP_Group2[SP_Integer[1]]

-Paralysis spell should not pause units

-Set SP_Group[SP_Integer[0]] = (Random 0 units from (Units in (Playable map area)))
^That is an unnecessarily heavy action and created leaks that are unavoidable with GUI. Use
Custom script : Set udg_SP_Group[udg_SP_Integer[0]] = CreateGroup()

-Use leak LastPoint

Needs Fix

Can you direct me to an alternative method of pausing units? All I know about it is in GUI... Thanks.
