[Trigger] Specifying Siphon Mana Target

[yurneric]

This probably sounds easy, but somehow I failed to specify the targeted unit to set it into a unit variable.

What I want:
- Hero drains mana from an enemy.
- When the Hero stops draining mana (either end of spell duration or stunned or walked away), deals damage to the enemy unit.
- Damage = Amount of mana missing.
- Damage is to be dealt as one lump sum, not over time.

Here's my trigger:

Trigger

• Mana Break
  • Events
    • Unit - A unit Stops casting an ability
  • Conditions
    • (Ability being cast) Equal to Siphon Mana
  • Actions
    • Set ManaBreak_User = (Triggering unit)
    • Set ManaBreak_Target = (Target unit of ability being cast)
    • Set ManaBreak_Damage = ((Max mana of ManaBreak_Target) - (Mana of ManaBreak_Target))
    • Unit - Cause ManaBreak_User to damage ManaBreak_Target, dealing ManaBreak_Damage damage of attack type Spells and damage type Normal

Please ignore MUI for the time being.

Can anyone suggest a better way to specify the (Target unit of ability being cast)?

Ask me for more details if needed.

You have to store the unit (array or hashtable) when the unit starts the effect of the ability.

If you're ignoring MUI-ness at this time, the trigger would be definitely much more easy.
A test map is attached.
Drains 10 MP/sec, lasts for 10 seconds or until interrupted.

It's all done folks! I re-write the trigger from scratch in MUI version and it worked. Thanks for offering suggestions! I appreciate them!
