Cast Custom Spell

[BuRnInSpartan]

How do i get my dummy to cast my custom made spell at a target unit?

Issue Target Order -> (Your Base Spell Here). eg. if your "custom made spell" is based off of a storm bolt with different values, you still would use storm bolt in the GUI.

[BuRnInSpartan]

what if the base spell isn't there? i.e. shockwave.

Trigger:

Unit - Order SomeDummyUnit to Orc Tauren Chieftain - Shockwave (Position of (TheUnitYouWantToTarget))

[Anopob]

Exactly as Fledermaus showed. If you're spell is point type, you use Issue Point Order. If it's an instant cast like Fan of Knives, then "Issue No Target Order" (or something like that), etc.

awesome. my newest cast problem is with mountain king thunderclap. cannot find it in either.

[Anopob]

As I said in my previous post, "Issue Order With No Target" -> Mountain King -> Thunder Clap.

As I said in the other topic, you need to actually start looking for this stuff yourself.

Think: which of these targeting types does Thunder Clap use?

• Issue Order Targeting a Unit
• Issue Order Targeting a Point
• Issue Order Targeting a Destructable
• Issue Order Targeting an Item
• Issue Order With No Target

Obviously it's Issue Order With No Target so you go into the ability list for that action.
Hmm, it's sorted by the race and name of the casting unit. Thunder Clap is on the Mountain King who is a Human unit.
"Human Mountain King - Thunder Clap" that sounds right.


And you're done.

what if i have a char with 2 versions of the spell? how can i make it so only 1 of them casts?

[Fledermaus]

You should never have 2 versions of the same spell on 1 unit at the same time.

ah man. oh well. i was trying to make a trigger that would constantly cause my hero to cast a unit version of thunderclap and then have him also have a thunderclap. but i guess i could use stomp.
