I want to make a persistant effect, use an effect (Create Unit) wait 0.4 seconds use another effect (Search).

How do I do that? I cant seem to figure it out... (It's on Target Point, if that have any kind of relevance)

Set Effect-Initial to Create Unit, add a phase/period entry of 0.4 and add a Periodic Effect entry Search. Or add 2 phase entries 0 and 0.4 and 2 Periodic Effect entries Create Unit and Search in that order.

Make sure the subsequent effects allow a Point type target because the Unit scope is lost after using Point once.

Hmm, well for some reason it works now, I did the exact same thing before. Odd how it sometimes works by recreating it :b Thanks anyway :)

Odds are you forgot the period count. You always miss that one somehow.

Considered easy altering of the unit textures?
