Computer units dont use spells?!

[ProfessorZmurge]

Hello.
I did spells for a unit, a computer control that unit but he doesn't use the spells I did to this unit...
How I make him use it?
Also where I put it?
Abilities-Default Active Ability
or
Abilities-Normal?

I put it in both

Make a trigger like,
events -Unit is attacked/is attacking
Conditions - Unit equal to "your unit"
Actions - Order unit to cast "your spell"

It has to do with AI, you can use triggers but it won't be as effective as modyfing AI, but that's difficult.

Thanks,that should work but I cant find an action which makes the unit cast the spell.

Unit - Issue Order Targeting a Unit -> for an unit-targeted spell
Unit - Issue Order Targeting a Point -> for an AOE spell

on the action list, select the spell template of your spell.

Unit - Issue Order Targeting a Unit -> for an unit-targeted spell
Unit - Issue Order Targeting a Point -> for an AOE spell

on the action list, select the spell template of your spell.

I cant find the action that makes the unit to cast the spell T_T
Only move,attack,rally point etc....

weird... the point or unit target order list display the basic spells too

Its a custom spell...

 

[voidsmith]

Its a custom spell...

yes but every custom spell is based on a spell template ( a type of spell )
So if you replace data of a spell like blizzard or whatever and use it, it works....

 

[ProfessorZmurge]

The spell template is Thunder Clap, But there is no Thunder Clap there T_T

In order to use custom stuff on the AI editor, you have to import the custom data. There is a button for that on the very first page.

Your spell is based on Thunder Clap, so it's a spell with no target. Simply find "Unit - Issue Order With No Target", click on "Stop", scroll down and look for "Human Mountain King - Thunder Clap".
