Aerial Shackles Target Pos
    Events
        Unit - A unit Starts the effect of an ability
    Conditions
        (Ability being cast) Equal to Paralysing Shackles [Dummy Cast] 
    Actions
        Set ParalysingShackles_Count[(Player number of (Owner of (Triggering unit)))] = (ParalysingShackles_Count[(Player number of (Owner of (Triggering unit)))] + 1)
        Set ParalysingShackles_Pos[ParalysingShackles_Count[(Player number of (Owner of (Triggering unit)))]] = (Position of (Target unit of ability being cast))

Aerial Shackles Finnish or Cancel
    Events
        Unit - A unit Finishes casting an ability
        Unit - A unit Stops casting an ability
    Conditions
        (Ability being cast) Equal to Paralysing Shackles 
    Actions
        Unit Group - Pick every unit in ParalysingShackles_UnitGroup[(Player number of (Owner of (Triggering unit)))] and do (Unit - Remove (Picked unit) from the game)
        Custom script:   call DestroyGroup(udg_ParalysingShackles_UnitGroup[GetConvertedPlayerId(GetOwningPlayer(GetSpellAbilityUnit()))])

But the problem is that it doesen't work, after looking into it I still can't find what might be wrong, anyone got a clue?

Some things that could be wrong, but that are not wrong:
The Dummy Spell costs no mana and has unlimited range, so thats not wrong.
The spells are the right spells.
The buffs are right.

Set Point2 = [B](Position of (Target unit of issued order))[/B]

Im not sure that works

        And - All (Conditions) are true
            Conditions
                (Ability being cast) Equal to Paralysing Shackles 
                (Ability being cast) Equal to Paralysing Shackles [Dummy Cast]

Use Or - Multiple. And

units within 550.00 of Point

. Where have you set point?

Edit: It actually works now, thank you a lot for the help
Edit2: After testing it, I see that it some times does not work correctly, it can some times chain 2 units which is the right and some times it chains 7 units, anyone see what might be wrong with that?

Aerial Shackles Main Trigger
    Events
        Unit - A unit Starts the effect of an ability
    Conditions
        Or - Any (Conditions) are true
            Conditions
                (Ability being cast) Equal to Paralysing Shackles 
                (Ability being cast) Equal to Paralysing Shackles [Dummy Cast]

From the codes:
If you hero cast "Paralysing Shackles", all seems fine
If your dummy cast "Paralysing Shackles [Dummy Cast]", it is as if another hero cast "Paralysing Shackles".


Problem
That means if your hero is suppose to Shackle 2 enemy units (by creating a dummy),
the dummy would also Shackle 2 enemies (by creating another dummy),
Which the 2nd created dummy will also shackle 2 more units.... etc etc

You are lucky it stopped at 7, if there are enough targets present, it will shackle all of them.


Solution
Simply just do a check if the unit casting is a Hero or Dummy, and make each dummy only shackle one enemy.
