Need help with disabling autocast {how to remove autocast?}

[HellslayerX15]

So i have this spell called Inner Fire, which you can right-click to make it autocast, the thing is that i want to disable the autocast ability, is this even possible?

That isn't possible. You can make it only with triggers.


EDIT: Added trigger
1. Create a dummy unit with your custom inner fire.
2. Create a Ability based on Storm Bolt or any target spell.
- - You can also use channel. See this thread for more info
3. Implement this trigger

• Inner Fire
  • Events
    • Unit - A unit Finishes Casting an Ability
  • Conditions
    • (Ability being cast) Equal to <YourAbility>
  • Actions
    • Set TempPoint = (Position of (Hero manipulating item))
    • Unit - Create 1 <Dummy> for (Owner of (Hero manipulating item)) at TempPoint facing Default building facing degrees
    • Set Dummy = (Last created unit)
    • Unit - Order Dummy to <AbilityOrderID> (Hero manipulating item)
    • Unit - Add a 1.00 second Generic expiration timer to Dummy
    • Custom script: call RemoveLocation(udg_TempPoint)
    • Custom script: set udg_Dummy = null

Which one of the abilities goes where? (inner fire and storm bolt)

and why do you use (hero manipulating item) when there is no item involved? i dont get why this would work

 

[Child_0f_Bodom]

Omg, what was I thinking... Replace Hero manipulating item with Target Unit of Ability Being cast. First ability is your "storm bolt" and second is "inner fire".

 

[HellslayerX15]

If i set the first condition to Storm bolt the trigger will never kick off since no one will cast the storm bolt ability? ahhh i think i get the whole thing now, the storm bolt will be my activating spell right?

 

[Child_0f_Bodom]

Yes, indeed.

switched to chain lightning x)

im really new i dont understand why you would use storm bolt or chain lightning. would it work even if i didn't have the hero using either of those abilities??

HellslayerX15 wanted to remove autocast from certain abilities which is impossible. But, we can create a spell that does nothing, like chain lightning with 0 damage. When that chain lightning is casted, an invisible unit is spawned which casts the ability you wanted to remove autocast from.
