Want to make an item with 5 spells.

I had an idea of how to do it. Give the item an ability that doesnt do anything but can target a point, self, friendly unit, friendly hero, enemy unit or enemy hero.

Then somehow detect what the ability is targeting and do a differnet effect with triggers depending on this.

How can I detect if a unit uses an item on
- A point on the map
- A unit
- A hero
- self

thx

Download Vexorian's spell creating map. That'll help you a lot.

Do you mean the Caster System?

How would that help?
Wouldn't I need to understand Jass/Jesp and all that?

yes, i guess you do. but anyway, the link to the Caster System in the Links section doesn't work.

Any way I could do it then?

Would it be possible with an ability like Shockwave.
Detetect what the hero targets with the spell?

it might work. just try in a map test.
