How do I order a Unit to cast an ability?

[panzer]

There is a unit (Dummy) In my map and i want him to cast an ability (Rain Of Chaos Special Archimond) When 10 sec of the gameplay expires.

I've tried everything to make that God Damed Unit to cast this ability but he doesnt do it. It Works fine when i order him to cast (Rain Of Chaos).

I have equiped him with that ability and made sure that he's got enough mana! But Still......

What am i doing wrong.????:banghead:

Please Help Me
Thanks in advance

Are you sure the unit is close enough to the region to cast the ability? And are you sure that the ability is based off of Rain of Chaos?

>> It Works fine when i order him to cast (Rain Of Chaos).
What did you mean by that?

For dummycasts only go through the checklist:
Does the ability cost 0 mana (or does the dummy have 999999 mana? )
Does the dummy even have the ability?
Does it have any requirements?
Does it need a point or unit target or is the target valid?
Does the ability have casting time (so you don't move or kill the dummy before it even casted)
Does the ability have 0 cooldown (so one dummy can cast without any delay )

can't think of more, but often the requirements or mana costs are the problem^^

It seems this is a hardcoded channel ability, you can't order it around i think. Just tried doing it on a test map, the unit gets no order even though it can cast it if you click on the spell without problems.

You'll just have to trigger infernal spell, i'm too tired to help you now sorry ^^;

Make an inferno spell, add it to a dummy unit then pick random points in region and repeatedly order the unit to inferno at that point, that should do the trick ^^

Thanks Nenad, Good Idea, I'll try your trick
