You mean, like, the hero can only activate it at night?

Hmmm...I think there's a deactivate option in the trigger editor. You can try to set it up like

Event: Time of Day = [nightfall time on your map]
Conditions: None
Action: Enable use of [ability]

And then create a counterpart that says when morning comes to deactivate it.

Do NOT double-post. Use the Edit Post Button to edit your message. Additionally, you guys should use tags when posting triggers.

As for the ability, you might want to enable the ability, order the hero to use it, and disable it afterwards. If you do not know how to do this, I can post a map with the required system for you to download.

Also, if you want to introduce yourself to the Hive Workshop Community, please take a ticket to our Introduction Forum where others can greet you and advice you about these forums.
