Well you see. i Have this ultima move, and its creates massive speacil effects evrywhere. Like lighiting bolts, all around the caster. i was wodnering if it was possible, to attach a fixed damage onto the ends of the lightning bolts. Its goes like this. Units cast dummy abilty. Run trigger blots.....Create a SE and random poinnt with, lightiingbolt. Create SE adn radndom point with thunder clap. So it like creates a lightining bolt with a Thundeclap at the end. Now, how would i make it so that any unit in the area of the thunder clap tkae damage. Thanks.

I think i know how you can do this...

Create 2 variables, the first being a point array, ad the second being an intiger.

When the dummy spell gets cast set the intiger +1
then set the point(intiger) to random point
create Sfx at point(intiger)
pick all units in 50 range of point intger
Deal 50 damage to picked unit (set unit life -50 or create a unit to attack or cast a spell on it)
wait 1 sec
set intiger -1

I think that will do what you need

why don't you just makethunderclap be cast by a dummy, that way you can have stun and the like as well.as for lightning, make a unit with that as its modle and give it a modified immolation before it is removed.

That would work also.

It took some time to figure out your spell, i can change it how i sugested, if you would prefer.

All you need is a pick units in range of position of lightning bolt and set life to life - damage amount.

thanks for all the support, and yes you can modify it as you wish. just send it abck 2 me so i can c....ummm ive never done dummy units b4, so i would have no idea where to start. and if i were 2 try im afriad i would mess it up. lol. Have you guyz played this map called Final Fantasy Legacies 1.4? i was wondering how he did that Stardust Ray. It looks really cool. Thanks. This forums alot better than The offical one on b.net. Quick response. when i asked this on the other forum they called me noob and flamed me alot. But really if im a noob, then how did i accoplish this?

O yea. Im new to this forum, how would i put a pic in my signature? and how to i get a avatar? thanks

it's all a bit afar from each other....
and u'r using too much effects :)
what is it...charm, lightning bolt, thunder clap..i think i saw some more :)
but it looks nice !
try making it all strike at one spot, like a spell that is cast on only one unit, and the spell.....simply desintegrates it :))))))
