for some odd reason, my trigger enhanced spell keeps relooping special effects. i've been testing it and i can't figure out the cause. can anyone tell me what is wrong with it so i can avoid this in the future? if it turns out to just be plain corrupted can someone give me advice as to how i may avoid this in the future? edit: Quote:
does that have anything to do with it? yet i took out the wait from the trigger, and the trigger still looped over and over... anyway, here's my test map... |

How about posting the trigger(s)? |

thanks for the help... the reason i didn't initially post my trigger was because from a standing view point outside the trigger, it would appear it should work properly (or at least to me it made logical sense). but here it goes anyway... my exact trigger... event Unit - A unit Is issued an order targeting an object condition (Issued order) Equal to (Order(banish)) action Unit - Pause all units Unit - Create 1 Footman for Neutral Passive at ((Position of (Target unit of issued order)) offset by 256.00 towards 0.00 degrees) facing (Position of (Target unit of issued order)) Set Unit[1] = (Last created unit) Unit - Create 1 Footman for Neutral Passive at ((Position of (Target unit of issued order)) offset by 256.00 towards 120.00 degrees) facing (Position of (Target unit of issued order)) Set Unit[2] = (Last created unit) Unit - Create 1 Footman for Neutral Passive at ((Position of (Target unit of issued order)) offset by 256.00 towards 240.00 degrees) facing (Position of (Target unit of issued order)) Set Unit[3] = (Last created unit) Unit Group - Pick every unit in (Units of type ) and do (Special Effect - Create a special effect attached to the origin of (Picked unit) using Abilities\Spells\Human\Resurrect\ResurrectCaster.mdl) Special Effect - Create a special effect attached to the chest of (Target unit of issued order) using Objects\Spawnmodels\Orc\Orcblood\BattrollBlood.mdl Unit Group - Pick every unit in (Units of type ) and do (Unit - Kill (Picked unit)) Unit - Unpause all units actually, this is just one of three trigger enhanced spells that i was just testing with. of course i tested it with other triggers turned off (they should be independent of one another anyway). if my test map somehow turns up to be corupted for some strange reason, then i would just like to know how to avoid this in the future. thanks~ |

This is probably extremely minor for me to point out.. But shouldn't there be something there under 'Pick every unit in (Units of type....)? It just doesn't mention what it's targeting, which may cause the problem? |

Well I don't see that you have specified a unit type for one thing. Also see a ")" at the end of this line- Quote:
Might help if you Copy as text, so we can see it exactly as it is in the editor |
