So like, I'm creating a toggled blink ability that, when active, blinks the caster wherever they're issuing a move command, I added a hidden spellbook with a blink ability inside it and ordered the caster to use blink but it doesn't seem to actually work.
Is it even possible to cast abilities hidden in spellbooks or am I missing something obvious?

My trigger looks something like this,

1) create a rune with blink's ability inside of it
2) set max range to 99999 or w/e you want, min range to 0
3) in trigger create this rune at the point order has been given to
4) give it to the hero (make sure he has inventory ability or give it to him for this time)
5) use Remove Item native to get rid of last created item in case if rune didn't picked anyhow (just do it)
6) remove inventory if needed (been granted before and not needed)
also you have to have black mask disabled, else hardcoded blink will fail
hardcoded blink also disjoint any default projectile

unit who picked up a rune with blink spell will perform this blink at the coordinates of rune
