pick unit with locus

[mirrorman1de]

yaya locust

on a cast, units of type x (mirrors) in range get the spell as well and are ordered to cast it on a legal target. works fine.
(below just pseudo code to give you a rough idea)

• Copy Spell
  • Event
    • A unit casts a spell
  • Conditions
  • Actions
    • Pick all units of type x and do
      • Add ability being cast to unit
      • Order unit to cast (that ability)
  • wait 1 sec
  • remove ability from all units of type x

but when i add 'locust' to unit type x, this trigger doesnt work anymore. is it possible that also triggers cannot pick units with locust?

store locust units inside array or use enum units of player.

since units in range are selected on every cast, i guess i need a 'pick units in range matching condition' action, or?

You will have to pick every unit owned by player matching unit is a locust, and then have an if-then that the distance between the positions of the units is less than your range. Units in region/range will not see units with Locust.
