1 time damage

I am trying to create a spell and let it do a certain amount of damage to a unit upon hit.

but apperantly it doesn't since I kill a peasent with only touching it once, while the damage only does about 100 damage.

The trigger that does this looks like this.

Trigger:

Slice

Events

Conditions

SB_Abilitytrue Equal to True

Actions

If (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions)

If - Conditions

((Triggering unit) is alive) Equal to True

((Triggering unit) belongs to an enemy of SB_Castowner) Equal to True

((Triggering unit) is A flying unit) Equal to False

((Triggering unit) is A structure) Equal to False

((Triggering unit) is Magic Immune) Equal to False

Then - Actions

Game - Display to (All players) the text: works

Set SB_Temppoint = (Position of (Triggering unit))

Special Effect - Create a special effect at SB_Temppoint using Objects\Spawnmodels\Orc\OrcSmallDeathExplode\OrcSmallDeathExplode.mdl

Custom script: call RemoveLocation (udg_SB_Temppoint)

Set SB_SFXcan[SB_SFXnumber] = (Last created special effect)

Set SB_SFXnumber = (SB_SFXnumber + 1)

Unit - Set life of (Triggering unit) to ((Life of (Triggering unit)) - SB_Damage[SB_Level])

Else - Actions

the event is

Trigger:

Trigger - Add to Slice <gen> the event (Unit - A unit comes within 75.00 of SB_CastUnit)

Perhaps that the event is it, cause I put it in a trigger that triggers itself more times that one as well, but if I put that event in the melee inits, than it doesn't seem to work

suggestions are welcome

Freakazoid	Don't use set life. Use Unit - Deal Damage action!

aquilla	Make it work for one unit first; no multi-unit instancability. Then improve it MUI, though it would probably be difficult in GUI..

Mystic Prophet	I'm not seeing where you're setting SB damage. since the damage is the thing you're having trouble with, It might be a good idea to post that trigger.
