Hi I have created a custom tower and I have given it a custom

autocast ability and the ability works perfectly but I don’t know how

to make it so that when the tower is built that the ability must be

activated onto autocast automatically by itself because I still have to

rite click on autocast to activate it but I want it to be activated automatically

immediately by itself as soon as the tower is built, any help please, thanks.

You can order a unit to activate an autocast ability either by editing the unit's Default Active Ability, under abilities in the Object Editor or by using triggers.
Example:
  • Unit - Order (Your unit) to Human Sorceress - Activate Slow

Hi thank you for the reply but I have tried everything and I just
can’t get it to work my trigger looks like shown below
Events
Unit - A unit Finishes construction
Conditions
(Unit-type of (Constructed structure)) Equal to My Tower
Actions
Unit - Order (Constructed structure) to Night Elf Dryad - Activate Abolish Magic
and then instead of Abolish Magic I will have a custom ability but a custom
ability does not show up in the menu when I am trying to write the trigger
but I have tested it this way with Abolish Magic and it does not work I also
tried to put it in the object editor by Default Active Ability and that does not
work either, any other suggestions? Ok thanks again.
