Auto cast ability that will cast by itself?

[Zhall]

Which of the auto cast abilities will cast by themselves?

Could I get a priest to heal itself if it had negative health regen (enabled in the editor options)?

Anything else that will autocast by itself?

Thanks

Do you need it active? Factory can spawn units and stuff.

What do you need it for?

It just has to trigger a unit casts spell event.

Factory could trigger unit enters playable map area, then filter the unit-type (better to have a unit-type for this Factory). It is an easier workaround.

Otherwise, you could do what you mentioned in the first post; giving something negative health regen. Just make sure the heal ability only targets Self.

I've tried that factory spell before, the only problem is you end up with 15,000+ units that were automatically removed by the end of the game, thats a lot of leaks.

Perhaps it would be easier just to do a pick all units and clean the temp variables, would be easier to sync as well.

If you're going to have the Autocast on by default, when the unit finishes training index the unit. When they turn the Autocast off, deindex them. When they turn it on, index them again.

After that, the best thing you can do is just check every so-often if the unit's current order is equal to the order of the spell...Although for some spells this won't work properly.

Maybe I am misunderstanding, but do you just mean this field?
