Trigger question

[Windu]

I think it's a simple question but ... can u tell me how can I set a trigger , so that an ability is cast on a unit ?
I mean , when Ability 1 is cast on a Victim , I need a trigger so that Ability 2 is cast on the same unit
if u can help - pls do

thanks.

So what you want is when you cast Ability 1, the trigger casts Ability 2 on the same unit? Please be more specific.........

something like this?

• Some Trigger
  • Events
    • Unit - A unit Starts the effect of an ability
  • Conditions
    • (Ability being cast) Equal to YourSpell
  • Actions
    • Unit - Order (SomeUnit) to <orderstring here> (Target unit of ability being cast)

I think there's a tutorial on writing clear posts, but I'm not sure where

then why does this not work ?

The "Rip" ability is a Critical Strike
and the Slow and the Sorceress are not modified

 

[Silvenon]

You can't detect a critical strike, the only way to do it is to write your own in JASS, and I think Sorceress won't have the Slow ability if you didn't research, the reliable way to do it is to add the slow ability to her, make her cast it, and then remove it

 

[Final_Nova]

You can do it without jass just use a is attacked event and than for the condition put attacked unit belongs to enemy of you unit true order your dummy to slow attacked unit that should work allthough jass would be much more efficient

 

[Diablo-dk]

You are removing the sorceress, meaning she won't have time to cast slow.

Yeah, Diablo is right

Just in future, USE TRIGGER TAGS!
