Item Abilities used in triggers (how do they work?)

[Rinpun]

I hope this is a relatively simple question. Anyway, my whole car system is based upon this.

When an item has an ability (charged or "permanent", meaning it's like a staff of teleportation) and is used, is it counted in the trigger as hero uses item and that the target unit of blah in question is target unit of the ability? Or do I need to change the event to when a hero finishes casting Start Car (which of course is on the Car Keys item)?

When I write triggers like that, I prefer "Unit begins casting ability". When you do this though, be sure that if it is a usable item, the first action is to remove the item. In this case, you would use "Target of ability being cast". That's just the way I do it, and it works fine for me. However, there are other ways.

No need to remove car keys. You need those dang things
