[JASS] Can I register an ability gain event?

[emperor_d3st]

Hi.
I want to register ability gain events. No, not hero skill gain events.
The main reason for this is that I want to do things with units when they come under the effects of certain auras.

I know I could pick units around the unit with aura and add them buffs/abilities but that sounds insane an ineffective.
Please help me out.

No, not just heroes but regular units too.

PurplePoot, I don't know how do I use globals as the unit parameter in

TriggerRegisterUnitInRange

Sorry for being stupid, I'm a novice JASSer.

Actually, I don't think it would fit my needs perfectly. I badly need something like TriggerRegisterAnyUnitEventAbilityGain, or something. Or a TriggerRegisterAnyUnitInRangeOfType.

Dynamically create the event (and presumably the entire trigger with it). Then, attach it to the unit via some storage system, so that you can clean it up easily enough when the time comes.

TriggerRegisterAnyUnitEventAbilityGain

No can do, if you mean buffs. If you just mean abilities, you could just code your map that way (Replace UnitAddAbility).

TriggerRegisterAnyUnitInRangeOfType

Add a TriggerRegisterUnitInRange for every unit on the map (Or, if you just mean a single-subject event, TriggerRegisterUnitInRange with a boolexpr works).

I have tried to create the event dinamically using a global and failed, looks like I screwed something up.
Thanks for the help. I'll try to do this and report back later. (I have given out too much rep in the last 24 hours)

Posting one's code always helps.

I rather picking all units with buff
but... your choice

There is no trigger like that btw
