Slide Skill with an AoE Knockback

[colinjames12]

I'm not really sure what I'm doing here in this triggers but I want to make a rush/slide type of skill with a knockback to whoever touches the caster while sliding.

The triggers works fine at first but when casted again, the knockback doesn't work anymore.

I'm thinking the problem is your ifs in the 3rd trigger. You start with 2 and subtract .03 each iteration. That's not going to ever end up as 0.00. if you just move your

• Unit Group - Remove (Picked unit) from hammertargetz_Copy_3_Copy

up into the else of the previous if block it might work.

No, the two is not the value of which I set the hammerknockbacktime variable. I set it to 3 and it's in my map initialization trigger. But I'm going to check again just to make sure.
