There is NO custom abilities?

[Cosmas]

Hi, is there a chance to make 2 custom abilities from 1, because then i copy hero active ability and paste it 2 times, change everything and give abilities to 1 hero. In game i use 1 ability and other is using too or if i make triggers using those abilities only 1 trigger works so how the fuck i have to create custom hero skills if i can't even change buff or effect or anything? no fucking blank ability

 

[Vunjo]

yes, there is a way to change it
In 1 of the ability, change this to something else:
Text - Order String - Use/Turn On: "stormbolt" for example

 

[Cosmas]

omg i tried still not working, you tried that?

 

[Vunjo]

it works for me. Make sure that those 2 spells have different name, order string, and hotkey. You might also change other Order Strings. As far as I know, there are 4 of them.

 

[Cosmas]

Changed name, hotkey, all strings to random , removed buffs, changed icons still not working, can you send attach map here i'll download and see for myself

 

[Vunjo]

Wait, just to ask 1 thing. You want a Hero with 2 spells made from only 1. The Hero casts any of these spell, and other one doesn't activate. Am I right?

 

[Cosmas]

Yes i want other DON'T active but it activates then i activate other

 

[Vunjo]

ok then, will post a test map later if you don't mind.
Also, check this out in triggers:
Unit - Order Unit to Move To (Center of (Playable map area))

When you click "Move to" you will find all spells that are casted on area. There's for Unit and no area (Example War Stomp) too.

Make sure each spell has a different - Order string use/turn on

 

[Cosmas]

they have different order string if it works for you then add your map here cuz it's not working for me.

Make sure your spell is Channel-based ability
If your spell is default ability, you can't just change your Spell ID through order string
Find "Channel" ability in Object Editor -> Abilities Tab
From there, you can change your Order String/Spell ID, it works

 

[Cosmas]

I have no idea what you said but i try lol

Find "Channel" ability in Object Editor -> Abilities Tab
From there, you can change your Order String/Spell ID, it works

Spells have different ID's by default. You're propably talking about Base Order ID.

Abilites that a hero uses need to have different Based Order Id and different Order String - Turn On, otherwise they will trigger simultaneously.

That's why basing two spells on Chain Lighning and just changing the Order String won't make them fire independently, the base order ID is still the same.

Just go to Object Editor -> Abilities Tab
Go to Edit at the top of Object Editor box, and select Find...
Type in Channel in there
It will bring you there
From there, do as I said
Basically, Channel ability just a dummy, fake ability used to cast spells and use same target-type spell on same unit
Therefore, no problems with "overlapping casting spells on same unit" issues

 

[Cosmas]

so what change in there could i have more details?

Just point one thing: do not create two abilities or more and give them to a hero. It's badly malfunctioned. Try another way. Channel, or playing with dummies.
