[Trigger] [Strange bug] Spell casted only once

      • Unit - Order (Last created unit) to Human Archmage - Blizzard CallAircraft
      • Wait 1.00 seconds
      • Unit - Create 1 F/A-22 for (Owner of (Casting unit)) at AirFieldCaster facing Default building facing (270.0) degrees
      • Unit - Order (Last created unit) to Human Archmage - Blizzard CallAircraft
      • Wait 1.00 seconds
      • Unit - Create 1 F/A-22 for (Owner of (Casting unit)) at AirFieldCaster facing Default building facing (270.0) degrees
      • Unit - Order (Last created unit) to Human Archmage - Blizzard CallAircraft

    • Else - Actions
    • If (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions)
      • If - Conditions
        • (Ability being cast) Equal to Aircraft Rockets
      • Then - Actions
        • Set Aircraft = (Casting unit)
        • Set CallAircraft = (Position of Icecrown Tree Wall 0420 <gen>)
        • Unit - Add a 10.00 second Generic expiration timer to Aircraft
        • Wait 0.20 seconds
        • Unit - Order Aircraft to Move To CallAircraft
        • Custom script: call RemoveLocation(udg_CallAircraft)
      • Else - Actions

Now, as you see, 3 planes are created and eaxh one of them is ordered to cast a spell (basicaly blizzard). Everything works smooth, the first plane releases rockets (blizzard) after 1 sec comes the second plane and releases rockets, BUT NO DAMAGE IS DEALT! Same with third plane. Only damage from the first plane is applied. WTF?


The second part sends them to the edge of the map, so it looks more realistic...

Why don't you trigger the damage?

For Example:

• All Abilities
  • Events
    • Unit - A unit Begins casting an ability
  • Conditions
    • (Ability being cast) Equal to Animate Dead
  • Actions
    • Set CallAircraft = (Target point of ability being cast)
    • Set AircraftUnitGroup = (Units within 400.00 of CallAircraft matching (((Matching unit) belongs to an enemy of Player 1 (Red)) Equal to True))
    • Unit Group - Pick every unit in AircraftUnitGroup and do (Actions)
      • Loop - Actions
        • Unit - Set life of (Picked unit) to ((Life of (Picked unit)) - 50.00)

It's not problem, I could use damage area, but I am just interested why. Because it looks very strange. -.-

 

[Duhcake]

Well yeah, You can use damage area if you want the spell to damage your enemies AND your units and allies.

 

[shift4101]

um.. instead of repeating it 3 times you could always just set it to:

For each (Integer A) from 1 - 3 do (Actions)

This may fix it.. I'm not sure how it would but it I'm not sure how its not working in the first place.

 

[Dr Super Good]

Try basing it on another spell that they cast. I think the spell you are using is non stacking or something stupid.

 

[Archangel_Tidusx]

I think the animate dead is set to target onlydead units. Even if you are using just the point of the spell, i doubt it will work, simply because I dont think the spell itself will set a point if there are no dead units. It's nothing you can change in the world editor.

I believe. I may be wrong though.

 

[Just_Spectating]

i think blizzard gives the hit units some special buff that causes it to not stack.

maybe rain of fire or something rather would stack.

U just didn't set the casting unit into a variabel so after the WAIT the casting unit in the second plane is Neutral or something that is allied with ur enemy so the Second blizzard will not deal any damage to ur enemy coz it's not ur ally Plane ^^

 

[Duhcake]

Meh, The animate dead was only example because i don't have he's spell D:

 

[redscores]

Firstly, damage area causes desyncs, means it can split in a multiplayer game the other players from your game.

And the set life works not, because it does not deal damage, it just reduces life, so if you kill a unit with set life the caster of the spell wont get the kill...

 

[klemen]

Fixed the problem with damage area. It works so I will leave it this way.

@shift maybe, but I think it would be just a loss of time

@supergood COuld be something stupid, but I can only think of 2 aoe spells that drop something from the sky. Blizzard and rain of fire.

@archangel animate dead?

@rmx Casting unit is set into a variable each time the spell begins casting. So when the second plane stars casting it sets the second plane as a caster. Nothing wrong here. I didn't understand the second part though.



Thank you guys anyway. It could really be some bug with buffs or something similar, don't know.

 

[Rmx]

No it's not set to a variabel check ur triger again >>>>>>>>>

After the wait the casting unit will be null >>> So it's not ur unit anymore who the planes are created for >>> Check ur TRIGER in the first post ( His position is only set as a variabel )

 

[klemen]

I see what you mean now. I will try it out.
