Issuing target commands without any target?

[Pinzu]

Is it possible to issue player commands behaving as if the player clicked a target ability without selecting a target, such as Storm Bolt?

What I had in mind is that when a player uses a spell option, I want to issue a target command and allowing the player to select the target, be that single target, ground or AOE.

If not maybe it could be faked with mouseX, mouseY and moving an effect, though not sure about how to change the cursor.

Don't have the world editor right now, just wondering if anyone knows.

do you mean when A player click on Storm Bolt, the effect start immediately without selecting A target?

Not possible since targeting is not network synchronized. Once a target is selected an order is generated which gets synchronized with all clients.

Shame, makes sense though.

Shunponmaster, No i meant forcing a player spell click so the target button appears.

You could base something off instant cast type spell and then create a trigger that turns on mouse tracking and checks viable targets in range of the mouse.
