Bonus gold when killing a unit with specific spell?

[mylemonblue]

I have several abilities that I want to grant bonus gold to the player if he/she kills a unit with that ability. e.g If a firebolt spell was the cause of death, the casting player gets 10 extra gold in addition to the normal bounty.

Well, at first I tried using the Chest of Gold ability, and that didn't work. (I tried adding it to the hero, should I have just forced a Gold Coin item into it's inventory?)

I then tried this trigger to give the bonus gold, but it doesn't work. Is this only possible in JASS, or am I doing something wrong? If it's JASS specific, some pointers here and there and I think I can handle it (I'm trying to make the transition from GUI to JASS anyway )

You could possibly work around this maybe.

globals
    integer rawcode = 'A004' //'Fatal Blow' rawcode.
endglobals

function Trig_Fatal_Blow_Conditions takes nothing returns boolean
    return (GetSpellAbilityId() == rawcode)
endfunction

function Trig_Fatal_Blow_Actions takes nothing returns nothing
    local unit caster = GetTriggerUnit() //Caster.
    local unit target = GetSpellTargetUnit() //Target.
    local player casterowner = GetOwningPlayer(caster) //Owner of Caster.
    local real x = GetUnitX(target) //X of Target.
    local real y = GetUnitY(target) //Y of Target.
    local integer bonusgold = (75 * GetUnitAbilityLevel (caster, rawcode)) //Amount of bonus gold.
    local string sfx = "Abilities\\Spells\\Other\\Stampede\\StampedeMissileDeath.mdl" //Effect if killed.
    local texttag text
    
    if (GetRandomInt(1, 100) <= (3 + GetUnitAbilityLevel (caster, rawcode))) then //Chanec to instantly kill.
        call AdjustPlayerStateBJ (bonusgold, casterowner, PLAYER_STATE_RESOURCE_GOLD) //Adding bonus gold.
        call DestroyEffect(AddSpecialEffectTarget (sfx, target, "chest")) //Creating a special effect when killed.
        set text = CreateTextTag()
        call SetTextTagText (text, "|cffff0000Fatal Death!|r", 0.024)
        call SetTextTagPos (text, x, y, 0.00)
        call SetTextTagVelocity (text, 0.0355 * Cos(90. * bj_DEGTORAD), 0.0355 * Sin(90. * bj_DEGTORAD))
        call SetTextTagVisibility (text, true)
        call SetTextTagFadepoint (text, 1)
        call SetTextTagLifespan (text, 1.5)
        call SetTextTagPermanent (text, false)
        call KillUnit (target) //Killing the Target.
    else
    endif
    //Removing leaks.
    set text = null
    set caster = null
    set target = null
    set casterowner = null
endfunction

//===========================================================================
function InitTrig_Fatal_Blow takes nothing returns nothing

It shouldn't.
