Void Portal System
A system that handles sucking units towards unstable portals.
Once the unit reaches the point of no return, you'll make sure
that the unit gets the send-off it deserves, when it gets removed
from existence. Heroes are fortunate to escape from the portal
with their spirit intact.
This system allows one to create a simulated black hole (or void portal), where units falling within the grasp of the void portal will slowly reach a grim end. It has a lot of configurable variables for you, such as the amount of damage per second, range of the black hole (outer radius), radius of the black hole (inner radius) and more.
How it works:
The system will first check if a unit in range of the black hole will fall into the black hole. This is the filter phase, where you filter unwanted units out, and they subsequently do not suffer the consequences of falling inward. Filtering units out is done once, so they will not be enumerated again in the next iteration, (unless a certain Exclude_Group member is cleared).After a unit passes the filter, it will be dragged into the black hole, with a bit of rotation for added special effect. Once it reaches a critical distance, it will be killed by the caster if the caster is defined (caster is not defined by default), then by itself if the former fails, then the game kills it if killing itself didn't work. Afterwards, the Death Flag phase kicks in, which will determine whether to make the unit's death count towards the amount of spawned units or not. This phase will not spawn the units yet.
The system will do this for every instance, so having a lot of these will be a problem later on.
When destroying an instance, it will wait until either the filter phase or the death flag phase is finished (if the instance was to be destroyed at that time) before actually being destroyed, and just proceed as normal otherwise. Upon instance destruction, the system will spawn units of unit type based on your definitions, up to the amount mentioned above. This amount should only be read, and not written (Don't set it, just get it). After this, the spawn phase will run, granting you access to the spawned units via (Last Created Unit Group). If you define a custom trigger for the spawn phase, you'll have to handle the unit group leak by yourself (Last Created Unit Group).
Under the Void Portal Folder, there is a How to Subfolder. Under this Subfolder, it will go into detail on how to create, manage and destroy Void Portal instances for your own uses.
An extensive Demo Trigger is found in the spell Nether Vacuum, where it has its' own intricacies and such, which then makes use of the Void Portal system to simulate an otherworldly summoning ritual, with a bit of black hole physics. It has its' own sets of configurable stuff, most of which overlap with the Void Portal system.
To be added..

The relatively large file size is due to my attempt at changing the minimap for the lobby screen, which was not successful (don't know how to do that 
)
A future update will allow users to modify attack type and damage type dealt as DPS damage, with default values being ATTACK_TYPE_NORMAL and DAMAGE_TYPE_UNIVERSAL respectively.
Furthermore, minor optimizations will be made when processing the damage event from DPS and death by system, and in processing unit movement such that SquareRoot is avoided.
The update will change the behavior in the way Void_Portal_Do_Spawn runs; A value of false will no longer remove the enumerated unit if it isn't a Hero (Heroes don't get removed by the system no matter the value of Void_Portal_Do_Spawn).
Instead, a new variable Void_Portal_Do_Remove will handle unit removal (if it isn't a Hero). If false, the unit will be hidden instead.
