Need help with GUI trigger

09-07-2006, 04:49 PM

I am making a GUI trigger wich is supposed to create 8 floating things around the caster that circles around at 300 range, but the problem is that the dummy units wont show up at all. Its like if they are just removed at once they are created. First it worked, but when i created the "Move Shield", "Shield Knockback" and "Slide SFX" triggers something went wrong. here is the triggers.

Trigger:

Inferno Shield

Events

Unit - A unit Starts the effect of an ability

Conditions

(Ability being cast) Equal to Inferno Shield

Set ShieldCaster = (Triggering unit)

For each (Integer ShieldInteger) from 1 to 8, do (Actions)

Loop - Actions

Unit - Create 1 Dummy ArcaneShield for (Owner of ShieldCaster) at ((Position of ShieldCaster) offset by 300.00 towards (45.00 x (Real(ShieldInteger))) degrees) facing Default building facing degrees

Set ShieldDummy[ShieldInteger] = (Last created unit)

Countdown Timer - Start ShieldTimer as a One-shot timer that will expire in 0.02 seconds

Set ShieldTimer = (Last started timer)

Trigger - Turn on Moving Shield <gen>

Countdown Timer - Start ShieldKnockTimer as a One-shot timer that will expire in 0.02 seconds

Set ShieldKnockTimer = (Last started timer)

Trigger - Turn on Shield Knockback <gen>

Countdown Timer - Start ShieldKnockDustTimer as a One-shot timer that will expire in 0.08 seconds

Set ShieldKnockDustTimer = (Last started timer)

Trigger - Turn on Slide Dust SFX Shield <gen>

Wait 15.00 seconds

Trigger - Turn off Moving Shield <gen>

For each (Integer ShieldInteger) from 1 to 8, do (Actions)

Loop - Actions

Unit - Remove ShieldDummy[ShieldInteger] from the game

Set ShieldTarget[ShieldInteger] = No unit

Wait 1.00 seconds

Trigger - Turn off Shield Knockback <gen>

Set ShieldCaster = No unit

Trigger:

Moving Shield

Events

If - Conditions

ShieldDummy[ShieldInteger] Not equal to No unit

Then - Actions

Unit - Move ShieldDummy[ShieldInteger] instantly to ((Position of ShieldCaster) offset by 300.00 towards ((Angle from (Position of ShieldCaster) to (Position of ShieldDummy[ShieldInteger])) + 2.50) degrees)

Unit Group - Pick every unit in (Random 1 units from (Units within 75.00 of (Position of ShieldDummy[ShieldInteger]) matching ((((Matching unit) is A structure) Equal to False) and ((((Matching unit) is dead) Equal to False) and (((Matching unit) belongs to an enemy of (Owner of HookCaster) and do (Actions)

Loop - Actions

Set ShieldTarget[ShieldInteger] = (Picked unit)

Set ShieldKnockAngle[ShieldInteger] = (Angle from (Position of ShieldDummy[ShieldInteger]) to (Position of (Picked unit)))

Set ShieldKnockDist[ShieldInteger] = 20.00

Unit - Remove ShieldDummy[ShieldInteger] from the game

Set ShieldDummy[ShieldInteger] = No unit

Then - Actions

Set ShieldTarget[ShieldInteger2] = No unit

Else - Actions

Unit - Move ShieldTarget[ShieldInteger2] instantly to ((Position of ShieldTarget[ShieldInteger2]) offset by ShieldKnockDist[ShieldInteger2] towards ShieldKnockAngle[ShieldInteger2] degrees)

Set ShieldKnockDist[ShieldInteger2] = (ShieldKnockDist[ShieldInteger2] - 0.12)

Else - Actions

Do nothing

Trigger:

EDIT: Managed to get it work, now there is a problem with the "Move Shield" that makes the orbs not move at same speed as each other when the casting unit moves. Help, please...
