loop should be .03 not .04

u never reduce the arcaneleafperiod ?
the if condition will never fire.

I did, somewhere near the end. I've found the problem: when I remove the 'set Temp_Int = Temp_Int - 1' then it works. So basically I have to finish the intire index structure to fix the small random 'bugs'.

Why is 0.03 better than 0.04?

Edit: ok my spell is done. Kind of. I still need to turn it off though. I think it has a very bad leak(s) because my pc lag while a spell is running. Some of the Life Rays doesn't get to their destenation and just stands frozen on the map.

This spell is suppose to drain a portion life from a target enemy unit and if there are a nearby ally, the Life Ray will go to him and increase his HP.

.04 can be seen by a player. .03 is to fast to be seen. its right on the edge. so .03 will look better in the long run and provide a closer time limit.

u see what ur missing here ?

• Set uArcaneLeafC[Temp_Int] = uArcaneLeafC[iArcaneLeafindex]
• Set uArcaneLeafC[iArcaneLeafindex] = No unit
• Set uArcaneLeafT[Temp_Int] = uArcaneLeafT[iArcaneLeafindex]
• Set uArcaneLeafT[iArcaneLeafindex] = No unit
• Set iArcaneLeafCount[Temp_Int] = iArcaneLeafCount[iArcaneLeafindex]
• Set iArcaneLeafCount[iArcaneLeafindex] = 0
• Set iArcaneLeafPeriod[Temp_Int] = iArcaneLeafPeriod[iArcaneLeafindex]
• Set iArcaneLeafPeriod[iArcanePulseIndex] = 0
• Set Temp_Int = (Temp_Int - 1)

ok kwl, I'll change this one to 0.03 as soon as it doesn't lag any more.
oh I forgot to de-index the index itself ^^ thanks
