[General] Open/Close Gate(UNIT) with ability

[Falter]

Hello!
I'm trying to make a trigger that simply lets me press the "open/close gate"-ability on the gate to open and close it, and like I said the gate is a UNIT so the destructible gate trigger is obviously not an option. The issue I run into is that when I'm in-game the ability is greyed out and it says "Requires: Berserker Upgrade". I tried adding the berserker upgrade ability to my team, the gate itself and checked so the gate didn't have any sort of requirements in the object editor, but nothing works and I'm obviously missing something because I've seen the trigger work on other maps.

This is the trigger I'm using, which I got from reading a guide here on Hive, but nobody seems to mention having an issue with the ability upgrade requirement. So if anyone can help me it would be greatly appreciated.

My guess is: If the ability is asking for an upgrade, so somewhere in the unit editor is requiring it. If you see that everything is ok, and no upgrade is necessary, but still asks for it, try to change the ability you used as base for the command. I don't have time now to open the editor and try by myself, but try this.

Enter the Object Editor and the Abilities section and find your ability. Set Techtree - Check Dependencies to false. This data value makes it so it ignores any researches it requires.

Oh wow it was that simple huh, damn. Thanks!

You based the open/close on Berserk, right? That has a tech requirement by default because regular Troll Headhunters can’t use it without the upgrade.

Yeah so it's always important to know that a lot of things depend on the Object Editor @Falter.
Never forget that!
