Is there any ability/trigger to decrease a unit's sight range? Unfortunately, you can't give a negative value for the ability "Item Sight Range Bonus".

You can set a negative value by pressing Shift + Enter on the sight-value.

(Click on the "Data - Sight range bonus", so the box doesn't open yet, then press Shift + Enter and enter a negative value).

This also works for about every ability/unit data.

Thanks, it worked! How do you change a Thread prefix to "Solved"?

Oh, okay. One last question, I want to add a buff to units affected by the "Item Decrease Sight Range" Ability, but I can't find anything that works.

Make an upgrade that gives -100 sight and you can upgrade it with triggers if you want...

(That's already been solved)

Why do you need the buffs?
If you can add another ability to the item that decreases the sight, give it an abality based of an aura, but that actually doesn't do anything.
Change the buff of that aura to the buff you want (probably a custom buff).
