Kill destructibles between points

[Devrak]

I want to destroy all destructibles in a line between two points. How would I be able to do this? :nuts:

 

[MagnaGuard]

Cast flame strike with small radius?
I don't know, can you explain how it's used a little more?

 

[Devrak]

Well, I want it to work something like this:

X = point 1
Y = point 2
O = destructibles

So, if I have destructibles between the points like this:
XOOOOOOOOOY

Then they would be destroyed:
X Y

What I am having trouble with is how to pick the destructibles between them so I can destroy them ._.

 

[HydraRancher]

maybe if it only goes Horizontally or Vertically
create a region that stretches across the points, pick every destructible there and kill it

 

[Devrak]

Well, nah, that wouldn't work.

How come flame strike is able to hit destructibles but not other spells? Tried copying 'targets allowed' to impale, but that didn't work. :/

set distance_integer = real(distance between point1 and point2) / 100
set angle = angle from point1 to point2
for each (Integer A) from 1 to distance_integer
   loop
     set point_offset = point1 offset by 100.00 towards angle degrees
     pick every destructible within 50.00 of point_offset and do actions
         kill picked destructible
     call RemoveLocation(udg_point_offset)

ofc you will want to remove point1 and point2 aswell

EDIT: Kikac I think he wants it to be instant (your triggers are not MUI btw)

Create 2 points and order a dummy to right click from point 1 to point 2. Then make new trigger with event every 1 second and pick every destruct. within range of position of triggering unit. Let me show u:

Trigger 1
    Events
        Unit - A unit Starts the effect of an ability
    Conditions
        (Ability being cast) Equal to Animate Dead
    Actions
        Set Point_TargetedPoint = (Target point of ability being cast)
        Unit - Create 1 Footman for (Triggering player) at (Position of (Triggering unit)) facing Default building facing degrees
        Set Dummy = (Last created unit)
        Set Point_Dummy = (Position of Dummy)
        Unit - Add a 10.00 second Generic expiration timer to Dummy
        Unit - Order Dummy to Right-Click Point_TargetedPoint
        Trigger - Turn on Trigger 2 <gen>

Trigger 2
    Events
        Time - Every 1.00 seconds of game time
    Conditions
    Actions
        Destructible - Pick every destructible within 200.00 of Point_Dummy and do (Actions)
            Loop - Actions
                Destructible - Remove (Picked destructible)
        Wait until (((Issued order) Equal to (Order(Right-Click))) and ((Target unit of issued order) Equal to Dummy)), checking every 0.10 seconds
        Unit - Remove Dummy from the game
        Trigger - Turn off (This trigger)

Note: The Trigger 2 is initally off. I think it should work


EDIT: Sry i forgot to remove the points
