WorldEditor calculation error or mine...
_______________________________________________________________________________________
Hi all, so I have totally messed up here!
I tried to fix it sitting about 4hours, but I can't find any clue...
The skill has to start spining from 1 to 10 pheonix around hero, but the range is leaking... It seems like I done mistakes by calculating distance or angle.
So here's triggers (I hope you'll be able to help me :/):
  • spin1
    • Events
      • Unit - A unit Starts the effect of an ability
    • Conditions
      • ((Ability being cast) Equal to Spin[1] ) and (time[(Player number of (Owner of (Casting unit)))] Equal to 0)
    • Actions
      • Set caster[(Player number of (Owner of (Casting unit)))] = (Casting unit)
      • Set count[(Player number of (Owner of (Casting unit)))] = (Random integer number between 1 and 10)
      • Set angle[(10 x (Player number of (Owner of (Casting unit))))] = (360 / count[(Player number of (Owner of (Casting unit)))])
      • Set time[(Player number of (Owner of (Casting unit)))] = 200
      • For each (Integer A) from (10 x (Player number of (Owner of (Casting unit)))) to ((10 x (Player number of (Owner of (Casting unit)))) + count[(Player number of (Owner of (Casting unit)))]), do (Actions)
        • Loop - Actions
          • Unit - Create 1 Peasant for (Owner of (Casting unit)) at (Position of (Casting unit)) facing Default building facing degrees
          • Set bird[(Integer A)] = (Last created unit)
          • Set angle[(Integer A)] = (angle[(10 x (Player number of (Owner of (Casting unit))))] x angle[(10 x (Player number of (Owner of (Casting unit))))])
      • Trigger - Turn on spin1moving <gen>
  • spin1moving

                      • Unit - Remove bird[(Integer A)] from the game
                      • Set distance[(Integer A)] = 0
                      • Set angle[(Integer A)] = 0
                  • Set caster[(Integer A)] = No unit

For single player (Player1(Red)) It works properly...

Um, why do you times everything by 10? I see no reason for it... Or are you trying to make a 2D array? If you are you are doing it wrong:

it is suppose to be ((Max Players*instance) + Player Number)
So for instance 1, for player 1 (With 10 players):
10*1 + 1 = 11
for player 2:
10*1+2 = 12
etc...
For instance 2 player 1:
10*2+1 = 21
etc....

See what I mean?

So why do you have the 10x everything? Try taking that out and see if it works.
 
Here are some improvements. Whats the spell supposed to do?
Mass trash code; integer A&B; Get() function spam; position leak and much much more.

Um, why do you times everything by 10? I see no reason for it... Or are you trying to make a 2D array? If you are you are doing it wrong:
Every 10 becouse there my be created 10 pheonix for one player so I just setting all like this:
Player1 = from 11 to 20
player2 = from 21 to 30
...
player8 = from 81 to 90
(Im trying to make 1variable for all players witch worked allready... In other maps of course...)

Here are some improvements. Whats the spell supposed to do?
Mass trash code; integer A&B; Get() function spam; position leak and much much more.
Sorry at first I want to make triggers work properly than to add custom scripts to remove leaks.
