Permanent Invisibility and casting spells

[M4573R]

I have a unit with permanent invisibility, but when he casts a spell, he becomes visible forever. Is there a way to make the unit stay invisible even while casting, but reveal if he attacks? I can add and remove the ability with triggers when the unit attacks; that's not too big of an issue, but I need him to stay invisible while casting spells.

Thanks!

I don't think its possible to make a unit invisible when casting spells, but visible when attacking.... only way would be making a dummy to cast spells instead of him

Craaaaap. Thats what I thought.

Maybe the Blend Time is too high.

Is the blend time the duration under permanent invisibility? I set it to .01.

Guys, for the love of God! He just has to base off the "windwalk" type spell on "Ghost" ability. When you have Ghost, casting spells or attacks will not break the invisibility.

I am sorry, sometimes i am just on such a hurry like a ghost is hunting me Ahm, then he could base off his spell normally on wind walk and check when he has a buff equal to wind walk equal to true and he attacks, do nothing; else, if it casts a spell, add ghost to casting unit. That might work; and remove it when he stops/ finishes casting the ability, only when he has the wind walk buff on him.

what WHAT!? There IS a spell that keeps you invis!?

 

[CysticCraze]

Make some triggers for
Condition
"unit casts spell - blah blah"
Action
go invisible

quiet simple really.

Yup, at least until you perform an action (windwalk)

 

[M4573R]

Even if he has ghost, casting spells still reveals him.

Reapplying ghost/perm invis still makes him show up for a full half second.

 

[Vassilev]

Hey... I just checked... Ghost DOESNT reveal the attacking person by casting spells.. you must be using shadowmeld.. which reveals the unit when it performs an action...

use the ability with the rawcode 'Agho' and your unit should be permanently invisible

hmm you can do this

Give the unit permanate invisability with the normal fade time (3 seconds)

When the unit casts, make a dummy cast invisability on the caster, invisability will have 0.01 fade time, the duration of it will last for 4 seconds (perma fade time +1 seconds)

unless a person's eye refreshes at the milisecond that the fade time for invisability takes place, its as good as staying invisable while casting.

I AM using "agho"

My unit has it and goes invisible. But when he casts a spell, he gets revealed the during th whole cast time of spells and during his cast animation. What more can I say?
