Chain Storm Bolt

Hey how to make a Chain Storm Bolt.
I have tryed making a Chain Lightning that stuns it targets, but i can only get the first target to get stunned to the rest of em. someone knows how to do this then plz help me. maybe hint with triggers or Jass im beginning to look a bit on it but not so good. I Jass is it there posible to say target and then second target and then third target and so on...

PLZ help me!!!

Chain Spells are not for beginners. They are really hard to get working correct adn they should always be made with JASS to prevent memory leaks. I recommend you to use Vexorian's Chain Template. With it you can get what ever spell effect you want on all the targets.

Where to find his template...
Plz tell me i will make a try.
I understand almost all triggers exept the Custom Value i think :lol:
So i hope i can understand and make my self..
If its Jass i can make a try im beginning to learn Jass...

Custom Values? They are very simple, actually their one of the simplest stuff.

But you can learn JASS even without them. Since I'm using JASS, I never used a custom value. Kattana made an awsome system however which is quite similar to custom values... yet different. So, if you feel confident enough to try JASS, here ya go.

Actually, the main difference between GUI and JASS is Multiinstanceability, through local variables. Local variables can be used at the same time by more than one execution of the function, while globals are not that flexible. Through this, results the whole difference and possibilities.

Moreover, since it is pure text, JASS can be easier manipulated, but you can mistake much easier too. And mroeover, some functions are available only in JASS, such as the RemoveLocation function. Unfortunately for GUI programmers. But mostly, GUI and JASS have the same possibilities. But JASS has way greater potential.

I have made the Chain Effect my self now 8)
Now i have made a Storm Bolt to a Chain Spell without Jass and Without the Template i just got Problem with Invoulnerable units

Where to find something like this
Matching Unit not equal to Invoulnerable

i have looked but i can find plz help :cry:
#11
How did you make it without all that?

I think that's a great idea though... A stormbolt/chain lighting... Chain Bolt! :lol:
#12
It is possible with triggers. If you have Leopard's old version of "Chain Venom" you see how it works. Unfortinantly you can only download the his updated JASS version now more. But I think i leaks very much if used just with triggers. To prevent memory leaks you should always simulate "Pick units" functions with JASS. Can be difficult for beginners though.
#13
Arh...
I asked a question

How to find somethink like
Matching unit is invoulnerable equal to false

PLZ tell me i have see it before and i realy need it...
I cant find it my self so plz help...
#14
Use "Pick units in region matching condition"

Then, you can find "Matching unit is invoulnerable equal to false" if you edit the matching condition.
#15
Yeah i know that but where to find it...
I have searched for 1000 years without luck...
Is there a chance that you need WEU or other special Ver of Editor to see it...
If there is a chance of that plz send me a link or something to get WEU or other better ver of Editor
