Shock Bomb v. 1.1

Hello THW and viewers. This spell is pretty advanced. Much calculating and stuffs like that to get the whole thing timed. The spell is Fully MUI & Lagless & Leakless (I think [99% sure]).

This spell was made for the Freeze87 and his project http://www.hiveworkshop.com/forums/maps-564/mage-arena-1-04a-159164/

Shock Bomb
The hero casts an explosive bomb at the targeted location. After 5 seconds the bomb will explode and deal 130 damage and slows for 50% last 2 seconds.

pls pls pls use hashtables !
they are easier to use and more userfriendly
arrays are not 100% leakfree
and besides if you just got 1 or 2 instances, hashtables are even as fast as indexes (the more instances you have, the slower a hashtable will get)

Well, I'm not famillar to hashtables so then i use indexing and also, indexing is really useful to spells. Hashtables isn't even 100% working. If you try to save some handles like save unit handle or other one, the WE will crash. Some of the handles doesn't work properly and just crashing the WE. And that is because Blizzard was lazy and didn't do the whole Hashtable functions for GUI.
Pretty many spells is used more than 2 times at once.

Actually, hashtable was 400% slower in comparison with indexing. Some people prefer to use array due to the speed, while some prefer hashtable for being easy, friendly and of course being lazy cause indexing took a lot of work. :p

Hehe also, there's a LOT more complicated with indexing. BUT, with indexing you learn something new almost every day that takes you a big step closer to the full Advanced Triggering. And, also, there's very hard to take care of a large number of units. Like if i want to move 10 projectiles, there's very hard for me to take care of everything because i need to work with one unit at a time, and that is very hard...
But i'm famillar to that.

Well it's ofc that people should give credits. Almost the only thing why people upload their projects is to give people a project that they want to use and give credits for. Like if i upload a project, i pretend that i'm going to get credits. Otherwise, i dont think its any meaning to upload any project at all. The only thing i do it is because i want to get more famous and have more ppls that likes my projects and can see what i am capable of.
