Spell Request Plague

[Chamillionaire]

I need a spell made from scratch. Targets a unit from melee range and infects that unit with plague (Adds Buff) Damages the unit 60 DPS for 5 seconds. After 5 Seconds or the infected unit dies, the infection spreads to units in range of 250 of the unit (The unit that passed the infection does not get it from him self (That would be ridiculous)). And the infected units in range take the same damage for the same amount of time. And passes on after 5 seconds. If someone needs further Explanation send me a private message If it can be made in GUI(MUI) that would be great (Because i needz to learn)

wouldnt that result in infinity spread, ended only by the death of recipients?
i mean e.g. unit 1 gets infected, 5 seconds pass (300 damage), unit 2 gets infected (is in 250 range), 5 seconds pass (also gets 300 damage), unit 1 gets infected (is still in 250 range), 5 seconds pass, unit 2 gets infected (is still in 250 range), 5 seconds pass, unit 1 gets infected (is still in 250 range), 5 seconds pass, unit 2 gets infected (is still in 250 range), 5 seconds pass... actually everyone is already dead due to the 60 dps.

btw can the caster be infected himself (e.g. when the infected unit follows the caster for 5 seconds and the caster cannot exit the 250 range)?

Yes it will be an infinite spread unless the unit walks away from every one and the infection stops.

GUI(MUI) huh?

Shouldn't be too hard. Here you go! I made this quickly, but it should be MUI and all that. Tell me if you need anything else.
