How do you make a passive ability cooldown (I only need the shaded area graphic thing not any specific effect)? I'll stop posting soon :p.

Don't post 7 threads if you have multiple questions. Start a common thread and post all the questions there.

For this problem, hmm... As far as I know, only Reincarnation has this property. And there is no way you can control cooldown but reset it for all the abilities. My answer? Hmm... I would say impossible but I'm not sure what you're after. So maybe you can be more specific about this.

For example, my ability is a passive ability that causes the hero to instantly dodge an attack made on him (basically 100% evasion for one attack), and the ability has a cooldown of lets say 4 seconds. I have already made the ability and all the triggers, but I want a cooldown graphic to show on the abilitie's icon each time it is used. If you play dota it's like nerubian weaver's passive ability that lets him attack twice with a 20 second cooldown .

No, if you give a cooldown to evasion it doesn't work, and how do u make an orb effect have a cooldown? Because the icon for my spell can be anything. I was thinking of making the icon out of reincarnation and killing the unit when the cooldown wasn't active and instantly bringing it back to life so the cooldown would go off, but that would mess up some of my other triggers, and I'm not sure that would work, so how do u make an orb effect have a cooldown graphic?
