What functions would i make to create a spell that is like chain lightning but it freezes enemies

You mean you want to make a chain freezing spell? Darky used this idea in RotD, so I'm sure that there is already one in the spells section. I gave instructions on how to make any chain spell somewhere on this forum; I don't know where. I'll add it to the FAQ tomorrow.

cool thanx

I also uploaded a sample chain spell somewhere in the spells section. It is pretty easy to follow, I think.

Help

I created a crappy chain freeze but it works except for having the unit(s) attacked to be slowed. I just took chain lightning and changed the lightning to drain mana. Then changed the art model thing to frost nova. ya i suck

Oh ya

How do i create a kill board. Shows the amount of units a player has killed

Darky

I downloaded many of darky's spells. I couldnt get any to work. When i save map or test it it always tells me the script has errors. I cant get your chain freezing to work on my map. WE keeps giving telling me there are errors on the script but when i tested ur demo map w/ chain freezing it works fine. anything i have to change?

Here's a basic way to create chain spells.
1) Create a hero spell based off the desired spell. Make it target only one unit.
2) Create a dummy spell also based off of the desired spell.
3) Detect when the hero spell is casted and create a dummy caster.
4) Order the caster to cast the dummy spell on a random unit matching conditions.
5) Repeat step 4 as many times as you want the spell to bounce.
