Electric Shield
I made a spell about three years ago called Shock Shield, which was coded in GUI. This is an attempt to replace it. (Plus it's my first spell submission thats in vJASS)
The caster concentrates his energy into the form of orbs that circle around him for a duration. If an orb goes near an enemy unit, the unit will be damaged and the orb will not be able to damage any enemies for 2 seconds.
Information:
-Coding Style: vJASS
-MUI/MPI: Should be MUI.
Requires:
-Jass NewGen
-GTrigger
-Timer32
-BoolexprUtils
Can't really see the action going on in this screenshot

How to Implement:
-Make sure you have the 'dummy.mdl' model in your map.
-Copy the Ability and the Dummy Unit (that looks like a chicken) into your map.
-If you want the spell to cast a spell instead of damaging, add the dummy chain lightning spell OR make a different dummy spell and set the DUMMY_SPELL_ID variable to the rawcode of the spell (found using ctrl+D when in the object editor)
-Make sure that you have all the requirements met.
-Copy the spell code into your map.
