Fireball - Launches a fireball towards target point. Om impact detonates damaging all nearby enemy units and forcing them backwards. Im using Vile's knockback functionsfor this. But for some reason I cant even get the group working??

Is it really not grouping, or will the display text not work like that? thx |

Since you're already using Vexorian's CS, abuse it! XD I used ProjectileLaunch because it stops the triggering trigger's threads for the knockback effect (DamagingProjectileLaunchAOE would fit but the knockback won't work, it doesn't stop threads). Here's my code so far, I'll test it right now.
This looks more complicated lol, it's because the way vile's knockback functions require a group while Vex's does not. |

thx again, However, sorry only using the Tables, not the whole system :D. It says 'expected a name' on JASS:
return DamageTypes(ATTACK_TYPE_NORMAL, DAMAGE_TYPE_FIRE) + DamageException(UNIT_TYPE_MECHANICAL, 0)
EDIT: It would probably be better to not exclude mechanical from damage. Only the pushback effect, e.g. towers (so excluding from group) |

Why not the whole system? Those functions were from CS. Anyway, fixing code now, I seem to be getting an invalid number of args error, I can't see why, so yeah, just hang in there. EDIT: Okay, this should work now.. Except that the projectile won't show. I don't know why though.

JASS:call ProjectileLaunchLoc("Abilities\\Weapons\\LordofFlameMissile\\LordofFlameMissile.mdl", 350, 0.25, cLoc, 60, target, 0) Expected a function name? Ive looked at it a few times, I cant see anything wrong with it? |

@Fulla - What hes suggesting will work, but at this point, implementing the CS is like bringing in the army to solve a domestic dispute. The issue is that you never created the group: JASS:local group targets And GroupEnumUnitsInRange doesn't return anything. Boom, problem solved. |
