[Solved] Unit Expiration Reset

[Aeroblyctos]

Hey.

Is it possible to reset this trigger?

• Unit - Add a 60.00 second Generic expiration timer to (Triggering unit)

 

[watermelon_1234]

From my own testing, I'd say no. I thought of removing the buff but it actually causes the unit to get killed. Applying another expiration timer won't reset it, but a lower duration would correctly cause the unit to be killed earlier.
What would you need it for?

 

[fr0ggE]

You could replace the unit with the same unit type, same hit points, mana points, etc.

I'm doing a summon and there would be an ability that increases the life span of the summon. Is it somehow possible to do this with the normal life span bar?

You can pause the timer.

I think Control Magic can reapply/reset the timer.

 

[Meticulous]

Control Magic resets summoned timers to their original max duration, but AFAIK there's no way to increase it. Unfortunately it's very difficult to make replacing a unit seemless as it can be replaced in mid-animation, or while stunned, etc. I think the only other option would be using a custom summoned timer system, which has its own set of problems - mainly aesthetic.
