Search Area?

[13lade619]

so i have this Search Area effect on hand..

how do i make it so that the following happens:
(yeah i need you to point out every field i need to edit )

Search an area with radius 4, arc 360.
>Pick 1 enemy unit in the area.
>Order the caster to attack picked unit.

thanks.

i'm kinda stuck on how to reference the caster and target in the data editor.

"Recreating PheonixFire" will be a good course to review.

sure i'll read up.

anyways, i may have run into another problem.

i'm running the Search Area under a Create Persistent.
but it seems it's picking the first unit over and over.

EDIT:

There is one issue with our version of Phoenix Fire so far, and that is that our units will tend to attack the closest target and may attack the same target over and over again.

tutorial fixed it .

Also, I can give you an alternative to pheonix fire if you want to do it as a weapon instead. it will work roughly the same... but the workaround for it hitting different targets at random is easier. note that you can still target units for a focus even though it fires randomly on its own and that you have all the limitations of a regular weapon.
