Heya..

I made a spell based on the Parasite spell from Siren's.
The spell shoots an arrow to the target that deals damage, and has a knockback effect.. however that's not important for my problem.

The caster has 3 spell animations.
Spell
Spell, Throw
Spell, Slam

I set the spell animation names to:
spell, throw
because I want him to only use the spell, throw animations..

However this aint working!
He randomly uses one of the 3 spell animations.

Anyone knows what could be the problem?
The spell has to be Parasite, because this is the only autocast spell that can be tracked by "Starts the effect of an ability" AND has a missile. Things like Searing arrows have missiles, but wont work with the event: Unit - Starts the effect of an ability.

Teuncreemers.

You need to put it the precise animation name, letter by letter. But it's probably not that problem.
Like the guy before me said, you're going to have to trigger it, using:
Animation - Play (Triggering Unit)'s spell throw animation
