[PurplePoot]

Can you please elaborate a little bit more? That doesn't really present a clear question, that I can see anyways.

ok there a gate.... and near the gate there is a gate house in the gate house there the abilltys open/close......

Make two dummyabilitys to to be hold by the house. Warstomp would be one. Call one of them ''Open'' and the other one ''Close''

Then use this trigger:

• Trigger
  • Events
    • Unit - A unit Finishes casting an ability
  • Conditions
    • (Triggering unit) Equal to (House)
  • Actions
    • If (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions)
      • If - Conditions
        • (Ability being cast) Equal to Open
      • Then - Actions
        • Destructible - Open (Gate)
      • Else - Actions
        • If (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions)
          • If - Conditions
            • (Ability being cast) Equal to Close
          • Then - Actions
            • Destructible - Close (Gate)
          • Else - Actions

wont this make a bug? that if i kill the gate and i use the abillty it would come back again

Then at the Conditions (the basic trigger's one) put : House is dead equal to false.

remove those two abilities from the appropriate gatehouse:

• GateDestroyed
  • Events
    • Destructible - Gate 0000 <gen> dies
  • Conditions
  • Actions
    • Unit - Remove Open Gate from Guard Tower 0000 <gen>
    • Unit - Remove Close Gate from Guard Tower 0000 <gen>

don't just check whether the gate is dead, because open gate is considered dead. if you want something more difficult, you will have to hold a variable which will indicate whether the gate is open, closed or destroyed...
