What's wrong?...

Hydrolisk

Trigger:

Netherweave

Events

Unit - A unit Starts the effect of an ability

Conditions

(Ability being cast) Equal to Netherweave: Arcane Bolt

Actions

Wait 2.40 game-time seconds

For each (Integer A) from 1 to 5, do (Actions)

Loop - Actions

Set nwp1 = (Position of (Triggering unit))

Unit - Create 1 -Dummy- for (Owner of (Triggering unit)) at nwp1 facing Default building facing degrees

Unit - Add a 2.00 second Generic expiration timer to (Last created unit)

Unit - Add Arcane Bolt (Dummy) to (Last created unit)

Unit - Order (Last created unit) to Neutral - Firebolt (Target unit of ability being cast)

Custom script: call RemoveLocation( udg_nwp1 )

Wait 0.40 game-time seconds

Arcane Bolt: Based off Firebolt, deals 50 damage, stuns for 1/2 a second.
Netherweave: (Should) make 5 dummies consecutively, each one casting an Arcane Bolt. (Based off of Channel.)

Something I can't see is stopping this from working. Could you help me?

It's either shooting 1 Arcane Bolt or none at all.

vesuvan doppleganger	Its been a while since I've used GUI, but I'm almost certain you can not use waits in GUI loops.

Hydrolisk	I swear, for one ability I've made once, I made a Wait in a loop and it worked (it waited before going to the next loop). I also tried separating this (not in a loop) but I don't think it worked at all.

Freakazoid	Try not to use game-time second wait. Try using Storm Blot (frost bolt if there is one)

Hydrolisk	It still won't work. Hell.

You can try to do that in the hard/longer way,
dont do For Each Inter A 1 to 5...
and just do
Set nwp1 = (Position of (Triggering unit))
Unit - Create 1 -Dummy- for (Owner of (Triggering unit)) at nwp1 facing Default building facing degrees
Unit - Add a 2.00 second Generic expiration timer to (Last created unit)
Unit - Add Arcane Bolt (Dummy) to (Last created unit)
Unit - Order (Last created unit) to Neutral - Firebolt (Target unit of ability being cast)
Custom script: call RemoveLocation( udg_nwp1 )
Wait 0.40 game-time seconds

Five times.

mayby it's can work?

Hydrolisk	Already did that, and it didn't work.

Anopob	I believe in GUI you cannot use pre-set "variables" after waits. In this case your problem is "Last Created Unit to Firebolt". EDIT: And maybe the "target unit of ability cast". Try setting variable to those and using it instead.

Anitarf	Just don't use waits, they bug with GUI loops and bugged cast event responses. Try it without the waits and see how it works.

TaintedReality	You can't use "Target unit of ability being cast" after waits, and the other ones can be used but will get mixed up with other triggers because of the waits.

Dark.Revenant	You pretty much have to use the GUI Locals trick to do this sort of thing with any degree of control beyond the first wait.

Hydrolisk	Wow, that sucks so bad. ... And I thought I could make do without those tools and crap.

Anopob	You don't need tools, just learn enough JASS for locals or, better, as much JASS as you can.

Pyrogasm	You only need the one GUI-local trick: Trigger: Actions Custom script: local unit udg_TargetUnit = GetSpellTargetUnit() ----- TargetUnit is now a local ----- Wait 2.00 game-time seconds Unit - Kill TargetUnit That works just fine, but can only be done once per trigger.
