How do i make this spell?

[waveseeker]

I need to make a spell to work with a trigger....

my trigger is:
Events
Unit - Myunit 0001 <gen> Begins casting an ability

I need to make an ability, that can work with that trigger, because i have the spell effects worked out in a trigger, i want the ability to do nothing but SAY it's being cast...

What ability should i copy and alter to turn into my spell?

• Untitled Trigger 001
  • Events
    • Unit - A unit Starts the effect of an ability
  • Conditions
  • Actions
    • Game - Display to (All players) the text: ((Name of (Owner of (Triggering unit))) + is Casting an ability.)

like this?

No, i have the triggers worked out. all i need is a spell one of my units can cast, That will trigger a trigger, and do nothing else.

It basically needs to trigger this:

Go to markarn
Events
Unit - Mur'gulth 0010 <gen> Begins casting an ability
Conditions
(Ability being cast) Equal to Switch to Mar'Karn
Actions
Set PlayersHero[2] = Mur'gulth 0010 <gen>
Set PlayersHero[1] = Mar'karn 0058 <gen>
Unit - Change ownership of PlayersHero[1] to Player 1 (Red) and Retain color
Unit - Change ownership of PlayersHero[2] to Player 2 (Blue) and Retain color
Unit - Order PlayersHero[2] to Follow PlayersHero[1]
Camera - Lock camera target for Player 1 (Red) to PlayersHero[1], offset by (0.00, 0.00) using Default rotation
Selection - Select PlayersHero[1] for Player 1 (Red)
Unit - Grant shared vision of PlayersHero[2] to Player 1 (Red)

What spell can i make do that?

Use this:

• Events
  • Unit - A unit Starts the effect of an ability

Instead of doing this:

• Events
  • Unit - A unit Begins casting an ability

Again. i do not need trigger help. i need to look into the OBJECT EDITOR. into the ABILITYS tab, and get a SPELL to alter. one to base my spell off of. because i do not understand the abilitys tab in the object editor, some have options that the others don't... i have no clue why. and i was wonder what a good spell to base one off of is.

Based on your trigger, you can base it off of an "Instant Type Target" such as Roar.
