I am having trouble with making a movement trigger. My goal is to have a unit cast a dummy ability on a target which basically does nothing, then back it up with a trigger that moves the unit to the target instantly when the ability is cast.
Restriction: I can't use blink because I have disabled the movement speed on the unit.
Attempt: This is the basic trigger I have so far:
Event: Unit begins casting an ability.
Control: Ability being cast Equal to Movement
Action: Unit - Move (Triggering Unit) instantly to (Position of (Target unit of ability being cast)).
The target units are simple beacons. The problem is, the above trigger works for moving units around, but it doesn't factor in the Mana cost of the trigger ability and there is no animation since it does not actually cast it. When I change the event to "Unit finishes casting an ability," the animation and mana cost goes off, but for some reason the trigger does not work, and the unit stays where it is.
The base dummy abilities I have tried to use are: Shadow Strike, Siphon Life, Life Drain, Channel (Not quite sure how channel works fully yet though).
My end goal is to link this ability with an Item with charges. When I do it though, I have the same problem, no charges are used.
Any help would be appreciated.
