disable spell

[Klann]

is it possible to disable a spell when a certain spell is activated?

for example, Footman has defend and call to arms ability, if Defend is activated, call to arms would be disabled,

NOTE `what i meant my disable is not by triggering off call to arms ability (spell can be cast but nothing would happen) , it should work something like silence, the player cant cast call to arms.

If you want it to be like silence why not just create a dummy with silence and order it to cast it on you unit

 

[Maker]

Try this:

Unit is issued an order with no target
Order == defend
Add unit into a unit group

===============

Unit is issued an order with no target
Unit is in unit group and order == call to arms
Pause unit
Order unit to stop
Unpause unit

Remove the unit from the group when undefend is ordered.

@Blazing Legion, because silence would cause all others abilities disabled

@Maker, +rep. i see your point, this is what im looking for. thanks anyways,(optional) if you have time could you post a leakless version of this in jass?

[EDIT] 'You must spread some Reputation around before giving it to Maker again.'

You could also use this to disable the spell:

• Player - Disable Call to Arms for (Triggering player)

But this will disable the spell not only to the unit, but to the player (meaning it will affect other Footman-type units as well)
