Ok, here is what I got so far.

You might have an error from me where it crashed the game. 

I was attempting to create a splash in an effect that would, upon a monsters 
death, do a splash that would give the player unit gold.

First time it crashed, so I looked at the file, saw that the splash range was 
after splash inflict, thought about how the point_current flag works and 
reversed them so that  the splash range was in front. That seemed to work, but 
it could also be a fluke, so you might want to try it out for yourself. I will 
put the map pack into drop box soon so it can get downloaded and tested if you 
need to try it that way.

The second bug involves duration=0 in the same effect as before.
When you set duration to 0, it starts counting down into negatives, while 
keeping the effect up and running. It does seem to work  quite well for 
duration of 1 however.
