i know that i have to remove the dummy's later but my problem is that only the dummy 2 and 4 are casting the spell
pls help me, thank you

Edit: Sometimes all 4 dummys are casting the ability and also it happens that no ability is casted by the dummys

Your trigger leaks and is not MUI and blah blah blah.

I'm thinking it's either the offset (range issue) or the wait (MUI issue, but not likely if you're only testing this singleplayer). Try it without the waits or with a shorter offset and see if it's more consistent.

 

[Cryze666]

i tried longer waits and as longer they are the higher is the rate of dummys wich cast a spell but i will try

could you pls tell me where it leaks?

 

[Kadabra]

After you create each dummy and set the level of the ability order it instantly to cast the spell no waits

 

[Cryze666]

okay i will try this but could you pls tell me why the "wait" causes this to leak?

Read about leaks: http://www.hiveworkshop.com/forums/triggers-scripts-269/things-leak-35124/

If you use globals variables to remove the leaks, there is a danger with waits that leaks occur. If another unit casts the spell before the first one is over, the variables can get overwritten.

 

[Vladadamm]

Don't use waits. The waits don't leaks, it's the location which leaks.

And never uses waits for short duration. Waits have an imprecision of +-0.30seconds.

 

[ronojales]

btw, aside from leaks, the reason why sometimes shock wave won't cast is because the distance between the casting point and casting unit is too far. if it's for a dummy, make the cast range longer, or set it to 9999. this won't affect the spell's max distance.
