Click to expand...

How about you store the casting unit into a variable and set that variable respectively in the first trigger then refer to that unit variable for the point variables you used.

Because the Casting Unit in the next two triggers aren't determined yet in those triggers.

Your triggers will still not work properly.

Unit - Create 1 Earth Nova Dummy for (Owner of (Casting unit))
((Picked unit) belongs to an enemy of (Owner of (Casting unit)))
Unit - Cause (Casting unit) to damage (Picked unit), dealing
You have no casting unit in Ground Destruction 1 and 2. You should change all (Casting unit) to TaurenGuyVar01


Also I believe this leaks
Unit Group - Pick every unit in (Units in (Region centered at (Position of (Last created unit))
I think it will be a lot safe to save it into variable... set Point1 = Position of (Last created unit)
and then you use the function Region centered at Point1

Yeah that's pretty much what I told him. But he should fix the leaks though... nasty leaks.

Seriously,you don't need this. Just uncheck the box beside the Initially On word above the Trigger comment.

You have leaks. Also,your trigger won't work because it uses Casting Unit in the Loop Trigger(just like what Nichillus said) because that trigger is unable to retrieve that unit.Just use a unit variable then set it equal to casting unit.

Currently,the Spell is not MUI enough,which the spell may cause to bug up when so many units casts it.I suggest read the following:
