[Trigger] Structure Trigger Help

[terranempire]

So, I'm trying to make a trigger that uses an ability based on charm that only works on buildings and changes the affected building (if it's the right type) to another building.

• Ability
  • Events
    • Unit - A unit Finishes casting an ability
  • Conditions
  • Actions
    • If (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions)
      • If - Conditions
        • (Ability being cast) Equal to Ability
        • Or - Any (Conditions) are true
          • Conditions
            • (Unit-type of (Target unit of ability being cast)) Equal to Building1
            • (Unit-type of (Target unit of ability being cast)) Equal to Building2
            • (Unit-type of (Target unit of ability being cast)) Equal to Building3
      • Then - Actions
        • Unit - Replace (Target unit of ability being cast) with a Structure1 using The new unit's default life and mana
        • Unit - Remove (Casting unit) from the game
      • Else - Actions
        • If (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions)
          • If - Conditions
            • (Ability being cast) Equal to Ability
            • Or - Any (Conditions) are true
              • Conditions
                • (Unit-type of (Target unit of ability being cast)) Equal to Building4
                • (Unit-type of (Target unit of ability being cast)) Equal to Building5
                • (Unit-type of (Target unit of ability being cast)) Equal to Building6
                • (Unit-type of (Target unit of ability being cast)) Equal to Building7
          • Then - Actions
            • Unit - Replace (Target unit of ability being cast) with a Structure2 using The new unit's default life and mana
            • Unit - Remove (Casting unit) from the game
          • Else - Actions
            • If (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions)
              • If - Conditions
                • (Ability being cast) Equal to Ability
                • Or - Any (Conditions) are true
                  • Conditions
                    • (Unit-type of (Target unit of ability being cast)) Equal to Building8
                    • (Unit-type of (Target unit of ability being cast)) Equal to Building9
                    • (Unit-type of (Target unit of ability being cast)) Equal to Building10
                    • (Unit-type of (Target unit of ability being cast)) Equal to Building11
              • Then - Actions
                • Unit - Replace (Target unit of ability being cast) with a Structure3 using The new unit's default life and mana
                • Unit - Remove (Casting unit) from the game
              • Else - Actions
                • If (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions)
                  • If - Conditions
                    • (Ability being cast) Equal to Ability
                    • Or - Any (Conditions) are true
                      • Conditions
                        • (Unit-type of (Target unit of ability being cast)) Equal to Building12
                        • (Unit-type of (Target unit of ability being cast)) Equal to Building13
                        • (Unit-type of (Target unit of ability being cast)) Equal to Building14
                        • (Unit-type of (Target unit of ability being cast)) Equal to Building15
                  • Then - Actions
                    • Unit - Replace (Target unit of ability being cast) with a Structure4 using The new unit's default life and mana
                    • Unit - Remove (Casting unit) from the game
                  • Else - Actions
                    • If ((Ability being cast) Equal to Ability ) then do (Unit - Remove (Casting unit) from the game) else do (Do nothing)

This trigger doesn't work because it doesn't register a building being affected.
Building do count as units in triggers right?

Try changing the event "Unit - A unit Finishes casting an ability"
into "Unit - A unit starts the effect of an ability"

Also add "(Ability being cast) Equal to Ability" to the conditions rather than in the if/then/else actions. It'll make the trigger more efficiently as you'll only have to check this condition once instead of each action.

Also move the "Unit - Remove (Casting unit) from the game action" out of the if/then/else actions to the bottom of the trigger.

Thanks for the help, it actually works now, although it seems to have created some lag when casting a spell but that isn't much of a worry.

Although for some reason, the effect of charm is nullified which is a major component in this ability.
Could someone care to explain why this is so?
