Make unit start casting ability (to target phase)

[MyDadBeatsMe]

Is it possible to add an ability to a unit, select the unit for the player and enter the "targetting" phase of the ability? i.e. flame strike would be added to some unit and player just needs to target the spell location?

It would also be important to detect a) the target being provided for the spell and b) the spell targetting being cancelled.

I think something like this? Need to set the (triggering unit) to actual unit variables / point variables tho

• Untitled Trigger 001
  • Events
  • Conditions
  • Actions
    • Unit - Add Flame Strike to (Triggering unit)
    • Selection - Add (Triggering unit) to selection for Player 1 (Red)
    • Unit - Order (Triggering unit) to Human Blood Mage - Flame Strike ((Center of (Playable map area)) offset by (0.00, 0.00))

edit: not sure about entering the ''targeting phase'' maybe use the function that clicks the ability but i can't find that anywhere.

I think you can force player's key to be pressed, so if you force player to press the hotkey for an ability the select unit has, it should work out.

• Game - Force Player 1 (Red) to press the key A.

Edit: But I would be pretty annoyed if the game started pressing keys for me where it made no sense. Just saying.

Thanks, would work if i didnt need to detect the cancel but i guess its too much of a catch case do. Otherwise; thisis a fine solution.
