Rain of Fire, destroy trees?

Sardius	I noticed something, if you cast rain of fire on trees, it selects them as targetable but does not destroy them... I checked the "targets allowed" in the skill itself to find it empty.

Ignitedstar	An empty "Targets Allowed" means that the spell will attack whatever is in the radius?

Sardius	so why doesn't it destroy trees then?

Hemlock	Cause they only get effected by normal attack damage if I were correct

Sardius	So then why does flamestrike and Inferno destroy trees?

Hemlock	I were wrong about the attack types, but flamestrike destroys the trees cause the specificly allow the target to get destroyed, rain of fire doesn't.

Uhm I think that the best way is to trigger it by using a JASS/GUI function that kills destructibles (such as trees). If you are using GUI, here is an example:

Trigger:

Rain of Fire

Events

Unit - A unit starts the effect of an ability

Conditions

(Ability being cast) Equal to Rain of Fire

Actions

Wait some time to match the fire animation

Destructible - Pick every destructible within 200.00 of (Target point of ability being cast) and do (Actions)

Loop - Actions

Destructible - Kill (Picked destructible)

I hope it helps. Cheers.

Well, just to be precise, if you want to match exactly the Rain of Fire animation, the wait time should be 0.80 seconds.
I made for you a simple map. Cheers.
