Can someone please tell me how to make a spell. The spell will be an aura of 400 range, in which everytime an enemy unit comes into the aura, they are hexed. Every 10 seconds, all enemy units in the aura will be hexed for 2 seconds. Thx

HEX DUMMY is a dummy unit with a hex spell
CASTER is a unit variable.

hmm all the enemy units around my hero have the hex buff but none of them are actually hexed. what did I do wrong?

This is exactly what I have:

Folder Constant:
Trigger Start:
Events:
Unit - Paladin 0001 <gen> Learns a skill
Conditions:
(Learned Hero Skill) Equal To Voodoo Aura
Actions:
Selection - Select (Triggering unit) for CASTER
Trigger - Turn on HEX <gen>

Trigger HEX:
Events:
Time - Every 10 seconds of game time
Actions:
Trigger - Turn on THE CHANGE <gen>

Trigger THE CHANGE:
Events:
Time - Every .01 seconds of game time
Actions:
Unit - Create 1 HEX DUMMY for CASTER at (Position of (Triggering unit)) facing (Position of (Triggering unit))
Unit - Order (Last created unit) to Right-Click Paladin 0001 <gen>
Unit - Order (Last created unit) to Orc Shadow Hunter - Hex (Random unit from (Units within 400 of (Position of Paladin 0001 <gen>) matching ((((Triggering unit) belongs to an enemy of CASTER) Equal to True) and ((((Triggering unit) is dead) Equal to False) and (((Triggering unit) is A structure) Equal to False)))
Unit - Remove (Last created unit) from the game

That's my code
