Global silence trigger

[Jireky]

You know that ability from DotA, where you cast it and it casts silence over the whole map?

Well I've tried to do this via triggers and dummy ability but it doesn't seem to work as I tried it.
I made a dummy ability type olf thunderclap with no damage or slow and set in GUI that unit casting this ability will cast another ability (The silence with unlimited aoe) in the middle of map.

Well. It seems to not work with the Dark Ranger silence thingy in "issue orders" ...

Is there any other way to make it work?
I'd be very glad if you helped me, it's for my stupid crazy tank arena map.

make a modified soulburn and add it to the dummy and let the dummy cast it on all units in the group.

 

[Jireky]

Soulburn is already used as modified spell in the map.

 

[Axarion]

then just create another modificated one whats the problem?

 

[Jireky]

I don't wan't 'em to interfere.

Make them cast silence with 40 aoe on each and every hero on the map that would do it. And how would it interfere btw? Dont use any damage amp on your silence one.

 

[MortAr]

Just create a silence ability with 100 AOE, then when the global one is cast, create a dummy and order it to cast the 100 AOE silence at the position of every unit picked in the specific group.

If you are having problems I can make the spell for you.

 

[Jireky]

That'd be probably the best, Mortar. :/

 

[Jireky]

Oh well, I've tried the way you told me to.

It doesn't work and I don't know how to make it work.

Maybe I'm just too dumb to get it.



Anyone minds to make the trigger for me? At least I'll learn something from that.

You make it harder than it is
You just make an ability based off Silence with Area of Effect = 99999.00 and you order your dummy to cast it at the position of your hero.

So I did the basic right ... Hmm.

Well thank you anyways very much, because I couldn't figure out the whole thing.

+rep of course.
