shared ability cooldown

[Tigrick]

Hi all,
I want a group of units to share the cooldown of an ability.
This means when only 1 of the units in the group uses the ability, all of the units in the group will have to wait for the ability to cool down.

It is important that the other units in the group DO NOT use the ability. Is there a way/workaround?

You have to give those units dummy abilities, which do nothing when cast. Then check if a player casts the ability and trigger the effects and order all other units with the ability to use it.

Depending on whether you want order interrupting or not, you have to take the correct base ability for your dummy ability.

create a dummy that has the real spell and order him to cast it where you want him to cast it. then do what he told you ^

guys, sadly I was way to unprecise in describing what I'm trying to do. It's to complicated and will not help me much if I explain it here. So I started a new thread, going into detail and providing a testmap, too: http://www.hiveworkshop.com/forums/world-editor-help-zone-98/squad-system-sprint-ability-problem-testmap-attached-255541/#post2566209

I appreciate your help. But it was not what I'm looking for. Feel free to check out the other thread for more details if you want to
