[Unsolved] Add Charge Trigger not working

[Haradeur]

Hi,

I just can't get the Add Charge Trigger to work properly...

    if ((UnitGetType(EventUnit()) == "PickupMines")) {
        UnitAbilityAddChargeUsed(EventUnitTargetUnit(), "VultureSpiderMines", "Abil/VultureSpiderMines", -1.0);
        UnitAddChargeUsed(EventUnitTargetUnit(), "VultureSpiderMines", -2.0);
        UnitAddChargeUsed(EventUnitTargetUnit(), "RaynorTossGrenade", -1.0);
        UnitAddChargeUsed(EventUnitTargetUnit(), "\"VultureSpiderMines\"", -1.0);
        UnitAddChargeUsed(EventUnitTargetUnit(), "VultureSpiderMines", -1.0);

I tried all possibilities, but it just won't charge the mines... This Trigger does however add Charges to the RaynorTossGrenade - though for this to work i had to copy the Trigger from the original Campaign map, if I set the value RaynorTossGrenade it just didn't work aswell.

Is the branch running? Are the charges located at the ability, or unit or behaviour or player?

 

[Haradeur]

The trigger definitely fires. I tried both, Unit and Ability, no difference (default is ability).

Post the map maybe? This sounds very strange as I managed to get it to work in the GUI (which compiles to Galaxy before being executed anyway).

 

[Haradeur]

I don't have access to the hdd holding this map currently. Could you post the jass version of your working trigger?

 

[Dr Super Good]

It was all experimental mess around triggers. Come to think of it, I was messing with item charges and not ability charges.

Would probably be some issue with the name of your link? Check to see if in the Cost field of the ability has Ability/Unit is in the drop menu for charges, and that the Link Name corresponds with that one you have in the triggers.

Ofcourse, it could also be because you dont actually have anything in the cost field for the ability?
