A little Trigger help

[irgan]

I'm trying to get this trigger to work where if a unit comes within touching range of my dummy fireball (who is moving to a point), it explodes, and if NO unit comes withing touching range of it, when it gets to its designated spot, it explodes anyways Any help? Here's the trigger that i have so far...not very far into it. Kinda stuck

• Fireball
  • Events
    • Unit - A unit Begins casting an ability
  • Conditions
    • (Ability being cast) Equal to Fireball
  • Actions
    • Unit - Create 1 Fireball Model for Player 1 (Red) at (Center of (Playable map area)) facing Default building facing degrees
    • Set Fireball = (Last created unit)
    • Unit - Order (Last created unit) to Move To (Target point of ability being cast)
    • If (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions)
      • If - Conditions
      • Then - Actions
        • Trigger - Add to (This trigger) the event (Unit - A unit comes within 256.00 of Fireball)
        • Special Effect - Create a special effect at (Position of Fireball) using Abilities\Spells\Human\ThunderClap\ThunderClapCaster.mdl
        • Unit - Remove Fireball from the game
      • Else - Actions

oh and yeah i know the special effect isnt explode like it should be, i just didnt feel like doing the details yet till i got the structure down

First use event A unit starts an efect of an ability.
I think you should add event to another trigger:
Trigger - Add to (Trigger2) the event (Unit - A unit comes within 256.00 of Fireball)
and then do whatever you want to.

*bajaist 'Trigger - Add to (Trigger2) the event (Unit - A unit comes within 256.00 of Fireball)' i haven`t seen such a event in WE (it`s a specific event) mybe in WEunlimited.

I just copied his event

• Trigger - Add to (This trigger) the event (Unit - A unit comes within 256.00 of Fireball)

 

[ultimate11]

I just copied his event

Ok but isn`t such an event.U cannot use variable unit in that specific event ,only preset unit

• Unit - A unit comes within 256.00 of Peasant 0000 <gen>

Blasphemy!! You most certainly can use variables!!! :O and yeah, most of your handwritten stuff made sense and a few things didnt. oh and btw, for some reason i can't remove the 2 Point array variables. When i use the custom script it causes an error that says "Expected array index". What is that? Cant erase arrays or something?

 

[NeuroToxin]

Don't use Unit Comes WIthin Range, use this. Pick every unit within X of the dummy units location, if its equal to 0, do nothing (Not literally, do nothing is a waste of space) Else, explode him.

 

[irgan]

That's...not quiet what i was talking about. But thanks! Still having the problem with the first Fireball trigger with removing those variables

What exactly is your problem? I'm confused by the different posts.
