[Trigger] Can anyone tell me what's wrong with this animation trigger?

[fishcorn]

I'm trying to make it so some of the normal unit models that I'm using as heroes will actually look like they're casting hero abilities instead of just standing around. I've tried this with several different units and spells and always get the same effect: they just stand there like idiots while the spell art plays. So what am I doing wrong?

wriong is that units do not have those animations. Also, you should change animation in "Animation names" in ability field, not do it with triggering, it doesnt work.

Darn.

The reason I was trying to do it with triggers was because several different heroes are capable of buying the same spell (heroes like the Archmage, that I want to keep their channeling animations, and heroes like the sorcerer, which needs to be set to attack). I suppose I could make a twin spell with attack animation instead of channeling animation and make a trigger that auto-replaces one spell for the other when certain heroes buy it.

Instead of Channeling, take begins the effect of a spell.

And animations not working in triggering? Sure they do!

play animation doesnt work because unit is issued to cast a spell. -.- make few separate abilities for each hero.
