A type of spell i cant seem to make

[Frizz.Meister]

Im fairly good with world editor but im not amazing, and i have been having trouble creating a type of spell. The basics of the spell is a missile that travels in a strait line and causes damage to every enemy unit it touches. Although it sounds simple i cant seem to get it to work. Can anyone help?

You could always base it of Carrion Swarm.

Couldn't you base it off of something easy like carrion swarm or shockwave or something like that?

I have tried basing it on both of those spells bu they both have problems. Shockwave works well except that any missile art is underground. Carrion swarm has wierd damage problem as in it doesnt damage everything in a line and appears to damage in a cone shape at the end of missiles life.

well carrion swarm works well, its used in many archer games.

if you want to trigger it, its a pain in gui. but basically, create a unit, every x seconds, move it forward, pick all enemy units in range and damage them.

Ok your right about doing it in gui it is a pain. Therefore i have reverted back to carrion swarm but i still have the damage problem. I want the ability to do 1200 damage to each unit it hits and to not have the cone effect. How do i manage this?

Carrion Swarm - change the final area to the same as area of effect.

You can try looking at my triggers here. It's the same damage-in-a-line concept, only I added in a maiming effect. Hope it'll help.

EDIT: Read it all the way to the last post, the solution to my problem was only solved then.
