Trigger to Channel?

[Davy Jones]

How can I trigger an unit to cast Channel?

 

[Lifee_72]

You want to make channeling spell? Just make it based on a channeling spell,like Blizzard,Death and decay,Big bad voodoo etc.

 

[Davy Jones]

Can I make it based of the channeling spell called "Channel" (Available in Neutral Hostile/Heroes/Channel)? It needs a target.

Also "Finishes casting an ability" applies after the channel or not at all for channels?

 

[Maker]

Change the base order id. Then use the command of the ability which id you used.

If you set the base order id to holylight, then use the Human Paladin - holy light order.

Finishes casting event does apply to channel.

may I have an offtopic question ? (too lazy to open a new threaad)
How can I make channel to launch a missle on cast ? (like storm bolt throws a hammer)

 

[Spartipilo]

You create a Dummy that casts the Storm Bolt or Throws a Hammer when you "Start the Effect" of Channel.

 

[Davy Jones]

Or if you want a missile to collide on first hit, create the dummy with the kaboom ability, set it on autocast, set it's aquistion range the missle width you want and make it attackmove to the target point. It will explode into the first hit enemies.

So the answer is NO ...

 

[Spartipilo]

Actually, it's "YES". You asked "Howto make channel shoot a missile". The answer is "Triggering it". Channel does absolutely nothing, that ability is basically for triggered effects.
