Custom Carrion Swarm Spell

[Raizn]

Hi Helpers
i need a helping hand to optimize this Trigger. Everything works but the trigger itself is a bit...hm...ugly.

• Lightning Strike
  • Events
    • Unit - A unit Starts the effect of an ability
  • Conditions
    • (Ability being cast) Equal to Lightning Strike
  • Actions
    • Unit - Create 1 Lightning Dummy for (Owner of (Triggering unit)) at ((Position of (Triggering unit)) offset by (0.00, 100.00)) facing 90.00 degrees
    • Unit - Add Carrion Swarm to (Last created unit)
    • Unit - Order (Last created unit) to Undead Dreadlord - Carrion Swarm ((Position of (Triggering unit)) offset by (0.00, 0.00))
    • Unit - Create 1 Lightning Dummy for (Owner of (Triggering unit)) at ((Position of (Triggering unit)) offset by (0.00, -100.00)) facing 270.00 degrees
    • Unit - Add Carrion Swarm to (Last created unit)
    • Unit - Order (Last created unit) to Undead Dreadlord - Carrion Swarm ((Position of (Triggering unit)) offset by (0.00, 0.00))
    • Unit - Create 1 Lightning Dummy for (Owner of (Triggering unit)) at ((Position of (Triggering unit)) offset by (100.00, 0.00)) facing 0.00 degrees
    • Unit - Add Carrion Swarm to (Last created unit)
    • Unit - Order (Last created unit) to Undead Dreadlord - Carrion Swarm ((Position of (Triggering unit)) offset by (0.00, 0.00))
    • Unit - Create 1 Lightning Dummy for (Owner of (Triggering unit)) at ((Position of (Triggering unit)) offset by (-100.00, 0.00)) facing 180.00 degrees
    • Unit - Add Carrion Swarm to (Last created unit)
    • Unit - Order (Last created unit) to Undead Dreadlord - Carrion Swarm ((Position of (Triggering unit)) offset by (0.00, 0.00))

Use a loop, and use interger A * 90 for your facing. Should achieve the same effect.

• Actions
  • For each (Integer A) from 1 to 4, do (Actions)
    • Loop - Actions
  • Unit - Create 1 Footman for (Owner of (Triggering unit)) at ((Position of (Triggering unit)) offset by 100.00 towards ((Real((Integer A))) x 90.00) degrees) facing ((Real((Integer A))) x 90.00) degrees
  • Special Effect - Create a special effect attached to the overhead of (Last created unit) using Abilities\Spells\Other\TalkToMe\TalkToMe.mdl
  • Unit - Order (Last created unit) to Move To (Position of (Triggering unit))

Should be self-explanatory.

Might want to give those dummies an expiration timer so they don't leak.

use location variables so you can destroy them and remove leaks
