make enemy cast mirror image?

[corley]

what is the best method for making an enemy hero cast mirror image?

 

[Julian5]

• Event - Some point in game time...or something....
• Condition - w/e
• Action - Order (this dude) to cast Blademaster - Mirror Image

Should be something like that. Assuming, of course, that the enemy hero is on the map from the start. If not, then use a variable to store him/her.

The following are for the "enemy hero" to cast mirror image automatically if controled by the a player matching the orange text.

FOR COMPUTERS AND NEUTRAL PLAYERS

Just attack the hero.

If you based it off the blademaster's mirror image, it will automatically use it as part of the low level AI. No triggers or anything like that is needed, only the unit to be incombat.​

FOR HUMAN CONTROLED PLAYERS

Triggers are needed in this case unless the spell is to be only cast manually.

You will have to order the hero (order with no target) to use the spell via triggers. This can have problems thou like cooldown being ignored or the spell costing no mana thus try and avoid it unless really needed.​

thanks, i thought it would be alot more complicated, so it appears mirror image is one of the few spells the AI heroes cast ok without dummys and triggers etc

They cast most spells OK.

Only few do they cast stupidly or not at all.
