Remove Ability

[Vengeancekael]

So i was wondering, how can you remove an ability from a unit, and not just the button. Because i was trying to remove the invisibility ability from the Dark Templars, but i could only remove the buttons.

Your trying to make the DT visible correct?

Well for the DT it's not an actual ability that makes him invisible, but rather it's a Flag in the data editor.



I highlighted where it is in yellow, you can remove it straight from there to make the DT visible.

Check under:
Unit -> Flag -> Cloaked (Uncheck that)

EDIT:: Ninjaed

Hmm, I'd like to further the question, if it's fine. Is it possible to make it a Ghost-style cloak; he's invisible anytime he's not attacking?

I suppose you could do a trigger:

Events: A unit is attacked
Conditions: Triggering Unit has ability Ghost
Actions:
Make Triggering Unit visible (remove an ability, set a flag, whatever)
Wait 2.00 Game Time Seconds
Make Triggering Unit invisible (add an ability, set a flag, whatever)

there is an action called "Wait until unit is idle" so maybe that's better
