An ability that computer doesnt use?

[Kikinsin]

I have an ability that instantly kills the unit that uses it. The problem is that I have a player that controls computer players and the computer players use the ability and kill randomly the units. Is there a way to fix it? im thinking of making the ability thats beign used something that the computer wont press but I dont know what ability to use. Other choices are welcome as well

If you base the ability on Channel then the CPU won't use it, you can then also change the order ID for Channel if you wanted to trigger its usage for an AI or something!

Channel is intended as a trigger based ability, you can change its targetting type and whatnot and everything!

You could just disable that specific ability through the Player Properties box for whichever player you want. If player 2 is a Computer Player who you want to not use the ability, then disable it only for him.

Channel is great for this sort of thing, but it does have one quirk: Automatic animation cancelling.

Like every other channeling ability, it ignores the Art - Cast Backswing of the caster. Removing all channeling aspects from it makes no difference.
Hopefully Reforged 2 will address this and we can have a real "template" ability that does everything we need.
