Mining.

Alright, so what I need for a trigger is.

Player 1's hero has a Mining pick (basic), of certain level, and clicks on the pick in his inventory, then clicks on say a mine.
The unit either starts attacking the mine, or enter's it. If the unit attacks the mine, the player will lose control of him while he mines.
20 Seconds later, or a time that I choose, the unit stops attack the mine or leaves it, and recieves an item.

What I also need with this trigger, is that for different levels of a mine, require a certain level of Mining Pick.

Does this make any sense.?

Blubb-Tec	mhh I remember that there are abilities that don't work on creeps above a certain level, but I'm not sure if that level was a property of the ability or a gpc...

Gorman	Well,,,, yes some abilities dont, such as Charm, but its a field, and its irrelevant.
