Dummy cast certain level of ability

[Krakenn99]

Example.
I have level 2 storm bolt.
Whenever a unit casts strom bolt (which is lvl2)
Create a dummy which will cast flame strike (lvl 2, because storm bolt is level 2 too)

Hope you understood

"Set Level of Ability" instead of "Increase Level of Ability"

"Set Level of Ability" instead of "Increase Level of Ability"

Why so?

 

[nedio95]

Just look at the 2 functions and you should understand.

Still wondering why ?

The "Increase level" uses 2 parameters (Unit, ability)
I guess that it would do only :
Level of Ability for Unit = Level of Ability for Unit + 1
Do we want that ? No.

The "Set Level" uses 3 parameters (Unit, Ability, Integer)
It does:
Level of Ability for Unit = Integer

 

[Alright]

> Why so?

The action

• Unit - Increase level of ability for (Triggering unit)

only increases it by one level.

This action is what you will want for it to be the same level as your ability:

• Unit - Set level of ability for (Triggering unit) to 1

Though I assume Dz was saying that you should set it to that level, not using the increase ability function.

edit: 2mins late, wow

• Unit - Set level of ability for (Triggering unit) to 1

Let me correct that so we do not confuse Krakenn99 anymore and avoid further questions...

• Unit - Set level of Flame Strike for (Last created unit) to Level of Storm Bolt for (Triggering Unit)
