[Trigger] Unit Creation Problem

[SilverEx]

Forgot to state in title: GUI

• Raise Dead Lvl Ultimate
  • Events
    • Unit - Unit begins channeling an ability
  • Conditions
    • (Ability being cast) equal to Raise Dead (Ultimate)
  • Actions
    • Set Animator = (CastingUnit)
    • Set AnimationPoint = (Target point of ability being cast)
    • Unit - Create 16 Zombie (Tier 3) for (Owner of Animator) at (AnimationPoint offset by 0.00, 0.00)) facing (Random Angle) degrees
    • Unit - Create 14 Skeleton Warrior (Tier 3) for (Owner of Animator) at (AnimationPoint offset by 0.00, 0.00)) facing (Random Angle) degrees
    • Unit - Create 14 Skeleton Archer (Tier 3) for (Owner of Animator) at (AnimationPoint offset by 0.00, 0.00)) facing (Random Angle) degrees

My Problem

When the spell is cast the trigger is over creating units, in my last test I got 24 Zombies, 16 Skeleton Warriors and about 15 Skeleton Archers.
What's going on?
I have 9 other triggers based on this ability but each uses a different ability with a different editor suffix at the end to designate "level" difference.

Would much appreciate a responce.

Couldn't be because the ability's are copied then pasted then changed thus creating a discrepancy between ability data names?

Cheers,
Chris.

you could try something like this instead

• Unit - Create 1 Footman for (Owner of (Casting unit)) at (Target point of ability being cast) facing Default building facing degrees

Just change the units. Its the same thing without variables, also don't use the offset and see if it helps

I'm not having a problem with where it's creating them, it's with how many it's creating.

It's creating far larger amounts of units than it should be and it's completely random.

I made a spell similar for one of my maps where casting a spell would summon units. How i did it was using the event i used above in conjunction with

• For each (Integer A) from 1 to 10, do (Actions)
  • Loop - Actions
    • Unit - Create 1 UNITNAME for owner of casting unit at position of spell target) facing Default building facing degrees
    • Wait 0.10 seconds

Took a second to cast them all, but it worked, at least for me

It would take ~2 seconds, waits go to ~0.25.

I thought minimum wait was 0.11?

I can work with it doing this, it's not a massively big deal but it is slightly annoying.

Thats absolute bullshit, simple problem your one, replace the channeling with starting an effect (the event) and you are fine.

You know, channeling an spell actually happens more than 1 time and it happens earlier as the spells casting, so just replace it with the Unit starts an effect of an spell - Event.

There's no proof to WHAT the minimum wait is. The only known thing is that it isn't 0.01

Sounds Promising redscores, trying now.

If it is, I've been dumb I always overlook the simple stuff haha.

UPDATE:

Changed to just casting an ability and it works.

Thanks for the input
