Triggering abilities ?

Hi there.

Well I'm actually making some spells, but what blocks me are, as simple as it is, the triggering abilities.
You know, abilities that do nothing except launch the trigger.

Well I've already tried to pick normal abilities and to remove effects etc... to finally get only triggering abilities.

However, if I take make two spells that use, basically, the same ability to get cast (like death coil if I want a projectile effect), the two spells are casted if I cast one, etc....

So I'd like to know if there is any map with lots of those "triggering-only" abilities in order me not to get stuck >.< .

Thanks in advance.

This happens because you can't have two abilities with the same order id on the same unit...and when you copy an existing ability you copy its order id as well.
There is no real solution here: an order id cannot be changed for most of the abilities.
One of the exceptions is Channel, a spell that does nothing designed for triggering. You can change its order through one of its data fields. Anyway here is a nice tutorial that explains the ability and the things you can change in depth.

just use different abilities as a base.


some people says that channel isn't thrustworthy. i've never had any issues with it though.

Well Thanks, then I'll continue to take different abilities ^_^.

Bad Blizzard didn't make simple triggering abilities, but bah ^^ .
