What's wrong with this one?

[Dinodin]

I'm trying to make an unchanneled Rain of Fire but the problem is that there will only be 1 wave instead of 5 as in the spell. Why? Take a look at my triggers. I can't see what's wrong..

• Fires of Isengard
  • Events
    • Unit - A unit Starts the effect of an ability
  • Conditions
    • (Ability being cast) Equal to Fires of Isengard
  • Actions
    • Unit - Create 1 Spell Cast Dummy (Fires of Isengard) for (Owner of Saruman 0256 <gen>) at (Center of Evil Heroes <gen>) facing Default building facing (270.0) degrees
    • Unit - Add Rain of Fire to (Last created unit)
    • Unit - Set level of Rain of Fire for (Last created unit) to (Level of Fires of Isengard for Saruman 0256 <gen>)
    • Unit - Order (Last created unit) to Neutral Pit Lord - Rain Of Fire (Target point of ability being cast)

Saruman's "Fires of Isengard" is just a dummy spell with no effect and Rain of Fire is like it says in the toolpic.

Maybe you given the dummy the wrong spell?

 

[baassee]

or the dummy spell isn't channeling aka only one wave of shards (bolts)

 

[Dinodin]

No I have checked the normal Rain of Fire and I have changed it how I want it but still only 1 wave :/

try changing the event to a uint start casting ability

try changing the event to a uint start casting ability

Yes that was the problem, lol! Thanks. Just one more question. Do I need an expiration timer for the dummy unit?

 

[PvSvN]

yes

• Unit - Add a 5.00 second Generic expiration timer to (Last created unit)

but the only thing with a timer it kills the unit or you can add other trigger that when a unit stop casting rain of fire then remove triggering unit

• stopcasting
  • Events
    • Unit - A unit Stops casting an ability
  • Conditions
    • (Ability being cast) Equal to rain of fire
  • Actions
    • Unit - Remove (Triggering unit) from the game

Do not use the stopcasting trigger above. That wil cause a few problems, instead stick with the experation timer.
