Stopping cooldowns

[Necrach]

Is there any way to temporarily stop cooldowns for all abilities on the map or for specific units?

I really don't think so. Never heard of that. Might be possible in Jass, still, I really don't know.

Yes there is:

Events-
Every 0.1 seconds of game time
Conditions-
Actions-
Pick every unit in playable map area and do actions
Loop-Actions
Unit-Reset all cooldowns for picked unit.

Maybe will work. Im not sure.

 

[tooltiperror]

Just add in a condition and that will indeed work.

I think he means to stop the countdown of cooldown.

As far as I know there is no way to do that.

i am not sure about that, never tested it myself nor have i got the WE on this computer so i cannot check it right now but you may make your spells have several lvls and on the last level the spell got a cooldown time of 9999.99 (just some incredible big number). now if you want the cooldown to halt you may set the level of your skill to the last level and hopefully the new cooldown will become the present one and the cooldown is halted.
just give it a try.

Nope, the cooldown continues the same as for the level it was when it was cast.

Its possible but would take a ridiculous amount of work. Only way I can see doing it is to make a replica of every spell with and set the cooldown on the replica to 0. Then whenever you wanted to have no cooldown, just make a trigger that switches these abilities out.

I do this in my map for a single hero, but doing it for an entire map would take forever.

i think its posible... if i rember right, that "all dota heroes in some own map made from scratch with jass""
cant remeber the name of the map atm^^

but if i remember right they had some "cd protection" so even if oyu casted a spell, and then refreshed cd, you couldn't cast the spell again befor the cd ran out.

Welk thx everyone for wise words excuse me if I was unclear, indeed I want to stop the cooldown, not reset it

Actually this is what am I doing right now, disabling the ability when used starting a countdown timer for enabling it again, and stopping the countdown timer whenever I want to stop the cooldown. It isn't too hard because the map uses two heroes and only two of their abilities are active ones
