[General] Cooldown modification?

[Devalut]

Since the producer update has added many natives have we reached cooldown modifcation yet?

I understand we have:

• Unit - For Unit (Picked Unit), Set cooldown of ability firebolt , Level: (Level of firebolt for Picked Unit) to ((Ability Cooldown Remaining of Picked Unit for ability firebolt ) - 1.50)

But this will simply reset the ability if was already cast, and set the next cast to the lower amount



if you still don't know what I mean:

Spoiler

• Unit Group - unit within 500 range of (Position of unit with firebolt) dies
• (Picked unit) has firebolt on cooldown)
• Unit - Reduce the firebolt's current cooldown by x seconds?

I also saw some JASS natives for setting the remaining cooldown but I'm not sure entirely how to set it for an individual unit.

Unfortunately, there's no SetUnitAbilityCooldownRemaining.

You can retrieve the current cooldown and then reduce it if it's >0, not sure if it works tho.

@Mythic (quotes being weird...)
The producer update - Native list shows it or is this "Upcoming"?

You can retrieve the current cooldown and then reduce it if it's >0, not sure if it works tho.

Hmm, perhaps making a variable that stores the reduced cooldown and then resets it will work!
Thank you both!

I tested, saving on version 1.30.1. It said "Undeclared function." I then added "Blz" before the function name, just in case, but the result was the same.
The native list gave me hope. I wanted to be wrong. :[

I appreciate the effort!
Perhaps one day we will have something to rival Dota 2/League/Etc, as we are in fact snorting the ashes of a +16 year old horse and somehow still enjoying it.
