On/off

[simonake]

How can I detect if an ability is on or off?

you need to keep track of when a unit is ordered to turn it on or turn it off

Do you mean when you turn on/off auto-cast abilities ??
Then you need to use orders, like here's an example with searing arrows:

• Auto Cast
  • Events
    • Unit - A unit Is issued an order with no target
  • Conditions
  • Actions
    • If (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions)
      • If - Conditions
        • (Issued order) Equal to (Order(flamingarrows))
      • Then - Actions
        • Game - Display to (All players) the text: ((Name of (Triggering unit)) + ( ( + ((Proper name of (Triggering unit)) + ( ) + has turned on Searing Arrows!))))
      • Else - Actions
    • If (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions)
      • If - Conditions
        • (Issued order) Equal to (Order(unflamingarrows))
      • Then - Actions
        • Game - Display to (All players) the text: ((Name of (Triggering unit)) + ( ( + ((Proper name of (Triggering unit)) + ( ) + has turned off Searing Arrows!))))
      • Else - Actions

I did.

I want to customize "Frost arrows" to make them do another things. I wanded to effects to be only when spell is turned on or cated, obviously...

Thanks.

I think komagtion has done the code for you already Just change the action codes.
