Problem with single target with projectile spells..

Hi all.

I'm currently trying to create a spell, which needs a projectile. The trigger associated to the spell should trigger when the projectile hits the target. (I don't mean a projectile with collision system blabla, just a projectile like firebolt).

The problem is that, whichever spell I take (shadow strike, thunderbolt, firebolt...) for the base, the trigger will get triggered not when the projectile hits but seems when the hero throw it....

I don't understand because the event is :


So why doesn't my spell get triggered when the projectile hits the target ?

In addition, as it is a chain spell and that the trigger gets triggered way too early, all the chain get triggered in a half of second.... (the projectile is supposed to be not that fast)

Any idea why it's happening, or to make the trigger get triggered when the projectile hits ?

Thanks in advance.

You must trigger your spell, there is no event for projectile hit.

Or you could use the gui method, waiting until the target unit has the buff associated with the spell. Then remove the buff, and do your stuff.

Oh okay. So it's not a bug, every projectile spell will "initiate effect" will trigger this even when it starts casting ?

Bah, I'll check if I can do something with your buff method, or use the projectile system included in CS.

Thank you both!

Problem fixed using ProjectileLaunchToUnit() in caster system!
