Ive tried soooo many different things... But this trigger doesnt work... i dont understand! Its about to make me cry...

 

[Superz_Ze_Man]

Helppp!!!

 

[defskull]

So you want to make an epic battle, that involves camera and the trigger of an ability... ?

 

[Superz_Ze_Man]

yeah but just the ability is fine. I made a custom ability based off of rain of chaos (archimode)

 

[maxor_gan]

Try to use "attacked unit" instead of "triggering unit", make sure your hero has mana to cast the ability, and "learn skill" means u have to give this skill to ur hero in the object editor. If you don't, you have to use "add ability to hero" function. If there is still trouble you can post ur map I would help you to check. ^^

 

[mckill2009]

have you ever noticed the "Unit - Pause all units", it means PAUSE/not moving, so how can it cast?...

also how can he learn that skill if attacked?

Look more below of the trigger
He has unpause triggering unit

 

[mckill2009]

still it cant cast, it will still be PAUSED, Ive encountered this one before by one of my spells...

dont PAUSE IMMEDIATELY after the event or else it will not be UNPAUSED...

better use

• Hero - Learn skill for (Triggering unit): Special Archimonde - Rain Of Chaos
• Wait 1.00 seconds
• Unit - Pause all units
• Cinematic - Turn cinematic mode On for (All players)

Use this and it will work:

• Custom script: call IssuePointOrderById( GetTriggerUnit() , 852237 , GetUnitX(GetTriggerUnit()) , GetUnitY(GetTriggerUnit()) )

You could do something like this:

Trig

• Untitled Trigger 007
  • Events
    • Unit - A unit Is attacked
  • Conditions
    • (Unit-type of (Triggering unit)) Equal to xxx
    • (Life of (Triggering unit)) Less than 20000.00
  • Actions
    • Trigger - Turn off (This trigger)
    • Hero - Learn skill for (Triggering unit): Rain of Chaos (Archimonde)
    • Wait 1.00 seconds
    • Custom script: call IssuePointOrderById( GetTriggerUnit() , 852237 , GetUnitX(GetTriggerUnit()) , GetUnitY(GetTriggerUnit()) )
    • Wait 1.00 seconds
    • Trigger - Turn on (This trigger)

 

[Mr G W]

Replace triggering unit to attacked/attacking unit. Thats what u gotta do. Simple.

Ive done many triggers like that and they always worked

 

[Maker]

^Attacked unit and triggering unit are interchangeable.

 

[Superz_Ze_Man]

well, with all these replies, im gonna try them all. Ive already tried attacked unit, but triggering unit is more efficient

 

[Superz_Ze_Man]

AHAH! so even though he already had added the ability in the object editor, he wouldnt learn it. I did what maxor gan said and tried adding the ability to the hero, as well as adding a 1 second timer before i paused all the units (like what mckill2009 told me to do) and it worked? i am very confused why it wouldnt work before (i checked if he already had the ability and he did, so why do i have to add it again???). O well, thanks everyone, ive got tonnes of rep to go around for everyone who took the time to help me ^^ thanks

 

[defskull]

But as far for my concern, (Triggering unit) serves faster efficiency rather than (Attacked unit)
It depends totally in the situation
But you can't refer the attacking unit to be the (Triggering unit), it is (Attacking unit)
Conclusion: It depends on the situation
