The ability I want help on fixing is passive, but when you click on it, it changes between 3 different spells, sometimes it works, but mostly it gets stuck and doesnt change why would this be? Triggers Below

Trigger:
Change
Collapse Events
Unit - A unit Begins casting an ability
Collapse Conditions
(Ability being cast) Equal to Magnetic Sheild Attract
Collapse Actions
Unit - Remove Magnetic Sheild Attract from (Triggering unit)
Unit - Add Magnetic Sheild Repel to (Triggering unit)
Unit - Set level of Buff (w00t) for (Triggering unit) to 2
Trigger:
Change Copy
Collapse Events
Unit - A unit Begins casting an ability
Collapse Conditions
(Ability being cast) Equal to Magnetic Sheild Repel
Collapse Actions
Unit - Remove Magnetic Sheild Repel from (Triggering unit)
Unit - Add Magnetic Sheild Demagnetised to (Triggering unit)
Unit - Set level of Buff (w00t) for (Triggering unit) to 3
Trigger:
Change Copy Copy
Collapse Events
Unit - A unit Begins casting an ability
Collapse Conditions
(Ability being cast) Equal to Magnetic Sheild Demagnetised
Collapse Actions
Unit - Remove Magnetic Sheild Demagnetised from (Triggering unit)
Unit - Add Magnetic Sheild Attract to (Triggering unit)
Unit - Set level of Buff (w00t) for (Triggering unit) to 1

PS: Buff (woot) is the ability that changes buff per level & the buff sets off a different trigger each time. that determines between the 3 spells.

Last time I checked seting levels of buffs didn't work

Buff (w00t) is an ability with different buffs each level

Yeah and second, wouldn't you use 'casting unit' not triggering unit? It works better.

Changed it, didnt notice it was triggering unit. It's quite old (about 1 month) . I'll test it now.

Edit: Ok, tested it & now it just pauses the unit , or well. Back 2 the other maps :D

Triggering Unit not only works there it is also much better than casting unit


I had problems with increasing the levels of abilities with trigger, the problem was that icons / buffs / tooltips don't update correctly, I had this huge problem when making InvX my fix was to add a dummy ability then remove it
Like This:
Unit - Add Tooltip update to (triggering Unit)
Unit - Remove Tooltip update to (triggering Unit)
