The spell does not create the correct number of lightnings. Any idea?

EDIT: It's supposed to be a spell casted through the chat. Example:
Code:
Way of Elements: Mass Lightning 4
That should create 8 lightnings, but it often creates less.

i just glanced at it, but it could be because your unitgroup also included dead units, units with locust, and possibly spell immune units. When your dummies try to cast on them they cant, so nothing happens.

Just a guess tho.

Because you put that script at the wrong position.

Code:
Mass Lightning
    Events
        Player - Player 1 (Red) types a chat message containing Way of Elements: Mass Lightning  as A substring
    Conditions
    Actions
        Set Spell_Level = (Integer((Substring((Entered chat string), 33, 35))))
        Set Spell_Point = (Position of SpellWeaverSpirits[(Player number of (Triggering player))])
        Set Spell_Unitgroup = (Units within 1400.00 of Spell_Point matching ((Owner of (Matching unit)) Not equal to (!=) (Triggering player)))

    Looks like Google fixed whatever mistake that made the recipes on the site go crazy and we are no longer trending towards a recipe site lol - I don't care though because it motivated me to spend alot of time on the site improving it and at least now the content people are looking at is not stupid and embarrassing like it was when I first got back into this like 5 years ago.
  • The Helper The Helper:
    Plus - I have a pretty bad ass recipe collection now! That section of the site is 10 thousand times better than it was before
  • The Helper The Helper:
    We now have a web designer at my job. A legit talented professional! I am going to get him to redesign the site theme. It is time.

    I got one more day of community service and then I'm free from this nonsense! I polished a cop car today for a funeral or something I guess
  • Varine Varine:
    They also were digging threw old shit at the sheriff's office and I tried to get them to give me the old electronic stuff, but they said no. They can't give it to people because they might use it to impersonate a cop or break into their network or some shit? idk but it was a shame to see them take a whole bunch of radios and shit to get shredded and landfilled

    Hmm, how do I change my signature?
  • tom_mai78101 tom_mai78101:
    Signatures can be edit in your account profile. As for the old stuffs, I'm thinking it's because Blizzard is now under Microsoft, and because of Microsoft Xbox going the way it is, it's dreadful.

    @tom_mai78101 I must be blind. If I go on my profile I don't see any area to edit the signature; If I go to account details (settings) I don't see any signature area either.
