[Kike]

How can Ido an abilitie than makes the caster invisible, if its break the invisibilitie it will have bonus damage but if the caster moves it will becomes visible again like the Shadow Meld of the Templar Assasin from DotA. If anyone can help me please post

I can't find it here but I just need to now about this: there is a trigger than can check if the unit is moving or no? post it here please

You'll have to try a little bit harder to help yourself. But I can help you on the way: You save the x and y location of the unit when it casts the ability and then continously check the unit's x and y location values, comparing them to the old and remove the buff if they don't match.

I just had a little idea, I haven't tested it yet and I'm not sure if it'll work, but who knows... sometimes my weirdest ideas actualy work.

What you need:
- A Shadow Melt ability: Based on Thunder Clap or something like that with damage, range, no targets, just add a short casting time maybe. (Called Shadow Melt in this example).
- A Dummy unit!
- A Dummy ability based on Invisibility (human Sorceress ability) that adds a custom Shadow Melt buff. (Called Invisibility [Dummy] here).
- A Point variable. (called Point in this trigger, I'm so awesome with names!).
- Another Point variable. (Called Point2 in this trigger, woo!).
- A Player variable. (Called Player in this trigger, guess what my Unit Group variable will be called?).
- A Unit Group variable. (Yes that's it!, it's called Unit_Group!).

The Triggers:
- Trigger 1: Add the Invisibility to your hero.
- Trigger 2: Remove the Invisibility if the hero moves / casts.
- Trigger 3: Deal damage if the hero attacks and show Critical Hit! for ... fun?

Never mind, sorry for the amount of times I edit my posts.... I've added a 4th trigger to check the distance every second... thank Bogrim for that one.
However it should work now, I'll test it in a moment.
