Use the Parasite ability from Naga Siren and set the Summon Unit Count to 0.


Parasite didn't work. It don't auto cast on an unit. What I mean by auto cast is at Object Editor where it says in Slow look below.

Slow - ability
Data - Always Auto cast = True

Hm... I think it only autocasts when the unit is provoked, like attacked.

Also, what does the Always Auto Cast field change?


Are u talking about trigger or object editor?

I have unit that spawn in a region by periodic and I want it to cast an ability.

So far I found like 2 or 3 ability but none of them dose any damage for auto casting in object editor.

I got an unit that spawn for a computer player 12 that just spawn over and over. All they do is melee hit with there paw but no ability that dose any damage.


Also, what does the Always Auto Cast field change?[/QUOTE]

it change only True or False in Object editor in ability section for Slow in Human Folder. if u look at Slow it has auto cast in them.

I'm Looking for an auto cast spell like Slow, but it dose damage instead of slowing an unit down.

Phoenix Fire does that, but then you need a dummy spell to make it 'appear', and that cannot be turned off auto-cast. That is the only Damaging Auto Cast ability i know. That or if you are good with triggers, you can create basic AI to cast some spell on the nearest unit.

Use a negative number on heal and change the allowed targets.

This works in theory, but the unit being targeted by the "Negative Heal" is immune if it's at full health. With the normal "Positive Heal", you're not supposed to cast it on units with full health, and if the amount healed is changed to a negative number the game will still think that the target is receiving a heal (despite the fact that it's supposed to be hurt).

There is a lot of abilities that have auto cast and do damage :
(Natural Passive)-building damage aura
(Human)-Phoenix Fire
(Human)-Phoenix Fire(flyer) - i think it is only damage aura in witch you can put Requirements

If you want to order a unit to auto cast some ability like chain lighting just tell me...

Not good Jerrin, that deals damage each second.
I suggest using a combo - using a dummy autocast spell - I am positive Frost Armor will be good, and fire a trigger that each time spell is fired casting unit damages effected unit.
