Hero skill levels another ability

[Ragnar9]

This is my first trigger of this type and it seems simple, and i want to be sure it works. I currently cannot test it.

The goal is for a Hero ability to level up a passive Evasion ability.

• SpdexEvasion
  • Events
    • Unit - Primordial Spider 1179 <gen> Learns a skill
  • Conditions
    • (Learned Hero Skill) Equal to Spider Dexterity
  • Actions
    • Unit - Add Evasion (Shelob) to Primordial Spider 1179 <gen>
    • Unit - For Primordial Spider 1179 <gen>, Ability Evasion (Shelob), Disable ability: False, Hide UI: True
    • Set VariableSet SpDex_i = (Level of Spider Dexterity for Primordial Spider 1179 <gen>)
    • Unit - Set level of Evasion (Shelob) for (Triggering unit) to SpDex_i

why not just use an altered version of the built in demon hunter Evasion ability? that is a passive evasion ability that heroes can level up, seems to be exactly what you want...

You can make any ability hidden from the command card by setting it's Art Button Position to X:0, Y:-11. This is done through the Object Editor.

Also, SpDex_i seems unnecessary since you only reference it once.

But yes, this would work. You'd be adding the ability to the Hero each time you level up Spider Dexterity but that's perfectly fine since the function will basically be ignored if the unit already has the ability.

@Cheshire That's assuming Spider Dexterity doesn't do anything important. He could want both Evasion and the effects of Spider Dexterity.
