Ability with items _and_ units as allowed targets

[XieLong]

Hi,
I got a little problem: I want make an ability with which you can target nearly everything, so not only units or only items but units, items and destructables (all handle-type objects).
But I have problems finding a fitting ability or a fitting setting for allowed targets for 'channel'...

It would be very nice, if someone could tell me a working ability or setting.
Thanks in advance

? you set targets in"targets allowed", and took ability firestorm or blizard

 

[XieLong]

Ofc... but try it yourself: When you set 'item' and something else only items will be targetable, units not. That's the problem.

Make a dummy casters each dummy cast diferent spell with no effects only damage, and esch dummy spell have diferent targets allowed. if you get what i mean.

 

[XieLong]

I get what you mean, but unfortunately it seems that you don't get what I mean... I need an anbility with which the user could target anything (except trees). The effects will be added by a trigger, sure. But I have to cast the spell on something before the trigger could run, you see?

Ye i getit now... search for action Unit - Add classification of (what you want) to (Targeted unit of ability being cast)
but i newer used that action so im not sure that it will work.

 

[XieLong]

No no no... I need a setting (or something like that) for an ability to target items and units... nothing more, nothing less. And this could not be done with triggers, I' very sure. Cause it have to work before any trigger could run; when the user clicks the ability button and selects a target.

 

[-Berz-]

Hmm. go to "advanced" "gameplay constants" and mby there is something that removes classification(or something like that) but the only thing that is left than is that you go to object editor and tick the items and enemy(targets allowed)

im off now

Any particular reason you want to be able to target units and items? It seems as if Blizz disabled it for a reason.

 

[XieLong]

Yes, there are reasons... I want to make a spell which can influence all widgets.

But anyway, I solved the problem: I just took 'channel' and as allowed targets 'item', 'air', 'ground' and anything else I need. Thanks for your time.
