[Trigger] Wait until condition - doesn't work -.-

[Squiggy]

hai thar
i got this action

• Set temppoint1 = (Position of (Triggering unit))
• Set temppoint2 = (Position of (Target unit of ability being cast))
• Unit - Create 1 Fireball for (Owner of (Triggering unit)) at temppoint1 facing temppoint2
• Set dummy = (Last created unit)
• Unit - Order dummy to Bewegen nach temppoint2
• Wait until ((Distance between (Position of dummy) and (Position of (Target unit of ability being cast))) Less or equal than 100.00), checking every 0.33 seconds

but somehow, the "wait" never expires -.-
can somebody help me?

Hmm... Dont see a mistake in that.
Maybe store the Target of the Spell in a variable and make the "check" to 0.05 or so...

(Position of (Target unit of ability being cast)) after the wait seems to be the problem.

 

[Squiggy]

Well i also tried a periodic trigger which sets a point variable for the Target unit of ability being cast every 0.1 seconds and replaced "Target unit of ability being cast" with the point variable - didn't work either

Why not just store the target of the ability to a variable and than check the distance between the position of the dummy and the position of ...(the variable where you stored the targeted unit). That will leak(a lot), but without jass doing a conditional wait is just bad.

Target Unit of Ability Being caster after wait IS the problem

Target Unit of Ability Being caster after wait IS the problem

So what do you want me to do to fix it?

 

[Eccho]

well you could simply add the unit in a variable and check that...

Its not mui though, if that is what you want?

 

[Squiggy]

Naah i just want to have a wait until the distance is ~100.. haven't thought of further actions but it's for a custom spell (which doesn't have to be mui)

 

[Eccho]

Well that is the thing. Target unit of ability being will not be triggered anymore after a wait, no matter if it's mpi or mui or you name it. So thats why you should add the unit in a variable at the beginning, and then use that variable instead of Target unit of ability being cast
