lightning effects

[ironfist19]

Hi, I need help! I want my spell to create a lightning effect that will follow the units rotated in a range. I am having a problem because my trigger is created noobishly.
My Triggers :

• Magnetic Rotation
  • Events
    • Unit - A unit Starts the effect of an ability
  • Conditions
    • (Ability being cast) Equal to Magnetic Rotation
  • Actions
    • Set MRCaster = (Triggering unit)
    • Set RotatedUnit = (Units within 500.00 of CasterLoc matching (((Matching unit) belongs to an enemy of (Owner of MRCaster)) Equal to True))
    • Lightning - Create a Drain Life lightning effect from source CasterLoc to target (Position of (Random unit from RotatedUnit))
    • Trigger - Turn on Rotation Units <gen>
    • Wait 10.00 seconds
    • Trigger - Turn off Rotation Units <gen>
    • Lightning - Destroy (Last created lightning effect)

• Rotation Units
  • Events
    • Time - Every 0.04 seconds of game time
  • Conditions
  • Actions
    • Set CasterLoc = (Position of MRCaster)
    • Unit Group - Pick every unit in RotatedUnit and do (Actions)
      • Loop - Actions
        • Unit - Move (Picked unit) instantly to (CasterLoc offset by ((Distance between CasterLoc and (Position of (Picked unit))) - 5.00) towards ((Angle from CasterLoc to (Position of (Picked unit))) + 10.00) degrees)

Try this, i am not sure if this will work
And if i am not wrong, nice double thread

First in 2nd trigger create the lightning effect between two points
Then create a new variable call LightningsEffect with array
Then create a new integer. For every units in range, +1 to the integer and set the last created lightnings effect to LightningsEffect(integer)
Then after all the action
Run the created trigger below
Create another trigger
That wait 0.03 second
Then create a new variable integer call integer 2
Set integer 2 = integer
Then use for each (integer) from 1 to (integer 2)
Destroy LightningsEffect(integer)

Can you explain the behavior this code is giving? This will help diagnose the problem.

And if i am not wrong, nice double thread

Also, this is a single thread. This technique however is used in many triggers for smooth movement of units.

Heh, strange. I remember that now. My apologies. I misinterpreted your use of the word thread.
