Damn, I feel like an idiot now TT
Nevermind, thanks

edited: and if I have:

Trigger:

imolation

Events

Unit - A unit Begins casting an ability

Conditions

(Ability being cast) Equal to Immolation

Actions

Unit - Order (Casting unit) to Night Elf Demon Hunter - Deactivate Immolation

Can I remove that buff somehow? Becouse the Immloation cloak stays around unit, and I don't want it to TT
Unit - Remove All buffs from (Casting unit) doesn't work

xombie	Okay, what exactly are you trying to do in the end result?

rednek	Ability that don't stop the current order of the caster when used. Berserk is already used. Don't know if I can make channel to work like it.

xombie	Okay, so you're trying to deactivate Immolation as soon as it is put into effect. Use the event "Spell Effect" rather than "Spell Cast". I will check to see if this works. Woah. That's strange. It actually shows the "active" icon as if the spell was deactivated really quickly, but it doesn't actually get deactivated... I don't know, anybody else?

Bobo_The_Kodo	Ermm, if you order the unit to use any spell with 'triggerz', the will lose their order anyway. You would have to use Dusk's LastOrder library or something! Anyway, you have to run it after a 0s timer to deactivate it properly.

This kinda works, but there is some effect of the immolation shown. Plus I have to be albe to spam that order, now I have to wait for some time until I can activate it again :C
Can I make channel ability, so it can be casted and caster wont lose its order?

xombie	...I wouldn't consider waiting 0 seconds a very long time.

Fledermaus	It is if you're using Waits rather than timers ^^

xombie	Hahaha. Forgot. Rednek, using "Wait 0.00 seconds..." will not work properly. You're going to need to set up a timer that expires in 0.00 seconds and at the end of the timer deactivates Immolation.

akolyt0r	Cant you make the ability based on Defend ?

Anitarf	I think Wind Walk also doesn't interrput the current order when used, and it should be possible to make it not turn the unit invisible (with an adequately short duration and long fadeout time).

fX_	Also, I don't think spell cast and effect are detected for toggle-abilities like immolation. If this is true, you should have 'issued order (immolation)' as an event.

Anachron	As far as I know you simple add 'Fan of knifes' and set the speed to 522. Is it that hard? xD
