How would I do that? Well what I want is... this is my spell... Missile Barrage - Launches x missiles which find a target unit, dealing 100 damage and stunning for 2 seconds. lvl 1 - 4 missiles lvl 2 - 6 missiles lvl 3 - 8 missiles So when the spell is clicked it launches x number of missiles, and each finds a seperate target. And each level is differnet, any suggestions? |

When hero levels it, set a variable = the number of missiles you want. When he casts the spell, do this: Pick every unit in (number of missiles variable) random units within (range) of (unit) matching (unit is enemy etc) and do: Order (your unit) to stormbolt (or whatever it's based off) picked unit. Make sure it has 0 cooldown and your hero has both the triggering ability and the stormbolt etc ability. |

use the brain. If it has more then 0 casting time, of course it cant repeat with a 0 sec interval.... Enfos uses xins trigger |

I havent seen the spell, but perhaps it could be done by summoning a unit with the "missile" type model, with the kaboom ability. |

simply because of the way the spell reacts and the parameters it requires to work properly. Estoric, i know some spells u cant do it cause they have a "casting delay" as well as a cooldown, but since Enfo uses a modifed storm bolt with no delay and no cooldown, it works fine. |

Almost any unit can be made to spam abilities inifitely by changing the casting backswing stuff to 0 - it's at the top of the unit properties in the object editor. Abilities which cannot be made infinitely spammable are: Chain Lighting, Heal Wave & Friends. Many AoE skills. All channeled skills. If it's not one of those then it can be made infinitely spammable. |

thats what i said, i just didnt go into detail to say what ones you cant do it with ://// |

Can you show the full triggers please, if its no problem... |

i'm not sure if this is exactly how enfo does it, but this way works. ------------------------------------------- Frost Scythe Events Unit - A unit Begins casting an ability Conditions (Ability being cast) Equal to Frost Scythe Actions Unit Group - To ScytheGroup add units near (Position of (Casting unit)) in a range of 10000.00 matching ((Owner of (Picked unit)) Not equal to (Owner of (Casting unit))). Limit number of units to (Random integer number between 1 and 20) Unit - Order (Casting unit) to Frost Bolt (Picked unit). -------------------------------------------- Note: it requires the variable "ScytheGroup" which is a unit group. |
