Learn an ability with triggers

[Krakenn99]

How do I make a computer controller hero to learn a custom ability with triggers?

You can add the ability in the object editor to the wanting unit, and then in triggers, under hero, there is an action called smth like: Hero - Learn Hero Skill Ability or something.

You can also add abilities automatically without object editor work.

Just add the ability to the unit. (not with Hero - learn, but with Unit - add ability)

Just to add to the other two posts, If it's a Hero ability, the hero has to have an available skillpoint. The trigger you use is Hero - Learn Ability. If it's the first skill, he will learn it; if not, you will have to use Hero - Add Skillpoint before he will learn it.

If it's a unit ability, you can just add it to the Hero by using Unit - Add ability.

Since it's an AI, there is no point in skillpoints at all so you can ignore that fact. Unspent skill points wont be visible anyway.

And you can add hero abilities with Unit - Add Ability as well.

edit: At least I have not heard or experienced an issue with it.

Thànks the add unit ability worked just fine.
