mby it is channeling and it drains mana

 

[ludnica]

Try and use as an event the following:
"A unit Starts the effect of an ability"

And also move your second and third "If (All Conditions are True)..." in the "Action" section, not the "Else" sections.
May as well replace the waits with a different trigger, that fires when the ability is cast and counts 20/25/30 seconds depending on the level of ability.

You could try switching casting unit for triggering unit not sure if it makes a difference though.

that makes alot of difference! casting unit doesnt always work, it gets "removed" if the trigger takes to long, like with the wait in the trigger.
change casting unit to triggering unit and it should work

 

[Lord Regno]

Sorry for the late answer but I now the bug now, it's are like 2-5 sec delay on taunt. So if I move before the delay have ended the ability will stop, I fixed it by "start casting a ability".

So now I wondering why its are that much delay. I have casting time on 0 and target self. And what ability are good to replace taunt with?

mby it is channeling and it drains mana

What I meant with drain mana where it costing mana so the hero losing mana, it was a joke.

Never have herd that casting unit will end if it's takes to long time, that was new.

Well dont "joke" in your threads or else some info may be hard to interpretate.

Partially FALSE. Some event responses will last for longer such as (Triggering Unit), although it is ideal to use (Triggering Unit) as much as possible, especially with the new Hashtables, pretty much everything can be MUI.

"Starts casting an ability" is an event that occurs before the hero starts casting the ability, but first after the "Casting time" has taken place. Casting time is generally very bad to use in relation to triggers as it just pauses a unit before the event takes place.

"Finishes casting an ability" should only be used in relation to channeled spells (e.g. Tranquility, Earthquake, and so on), to check if the unit wasn't interrupted during the cast.

The event you should be using is "Starts the effect of an ability".

As mentioned earlier, just refer to "Triggering unit" than "Casting unit".

Got it and I was thinking on that then I writhed the replay thread and i will not joke again, it was the first and the last time.

Well a good ability that can replace taunt?

 

[Bogrim]

If you want the unit to actually channel to achieve the effect, just use any channeling spell without any targets allowed, e.g. Big Bad Voodoo, Starfall, Tranquility or whatever else.

 

[Lord Regno]

Did not see your previous messenger. I am now using (triggering unit) instead of (casting unit). It means that i will pick a channel ability that have 0-1 sec delay instead of 3-5. Th man I will + rep you all

Because at least the life bonus can not be leveled, attack speed can't be leveled as well i think, unsure about the Attack Speed.

Also, Use a BreakThrough unit variable and set BreakThrough = Casting Unit/Triggering unit, else the trigger won't end if someone else casts a spell in that time (like Undead.Cow suggested, except he called it Caster ^^)

 

[Ayanami]

Attack bonus can be leveled as long as it is changed to a unit ability. As for life bonus, it's a really complicated spell. Even if changed to unit bonus, it can't be leveled. But it can be "leveled" in a sense. Let's say level 1 adds 100 health and level 2 adds 200 health. By adding the ability, it adds 100 health. Then the ability is set to level 2. However, you'll notice it will still add only 100 health. When the spell is removed, you notice you lose 200 health instead of 100. Conclusion is, you lost the health for the values of your 2nd level, which is 200 instead of your value of the 1st level, 100. So you would lose 100 max health in the end.

It will be same as before? You mean BreakTrhough unit array variable?
