[Trigger] Blink strike spell not working...

[Watcher]

Hi guys, I need some help...

So I found a trigger for a blink-strike spell which I basically copied into test-map to see if it works, but it doesn't.

I gave the spell to Ghoul, once inside the game, I use the spell, but only thing the ghoul does is that he plays cannibalize animation, while doing absolutely nothing else.

What I did wrong, can you help me guys pls?

Set "Data - Follow Through Time" to zero. Or ~0.5 depending on the animation you wanted it to play during cast. Then use the Event "Starts the effect of an ability".

Thank you very much m8 now it finally works.

One last question, how to set the CD? Cause I set "Stats-Cooldown 5 sec", but spells doesn't have a cooldown in game.

"Stats-Cooldown" is what you need to set, if the ability is not in cooldown, then there must be something wrong with your code.

In your code you're using Move caster instantly to target_loc, which will interrupt current order, causing the ability to be fired without fully completed. If you want to move the caster, use SetUnitX and SetUnitY via custom script. These 2 functions do not interrupt current order unlike move unit instantly function, but not to be aware the these 2 functions doesn't check path collision.

I would suggest you to read Things You Should Know When Using Triggers / GUI of Chapter 24 to move unit without interrupt of current order.

For future references, please post your trigger in [trigger]your trigger[/trigger] for easier reading for helpers, and also yourself. For more details info, read this : How To Post Your Triggers
