I need variable costs

I need to make the (mineral) cost of an ability be determined by the value of a certain (custom) variable of the unit that uses the ability. Any ideas?

EDIT: Oh, there will be many units of this type, all with the same ability, not all owned by the same player.

Shameless bump. I know you all hate me and that I suck and am useless, but this is getting ridiculous.

If there aren't too many possibilities you could do something like this:
Code
Change Ability
   Events
       What ever it is that changes your variable
   Conditions
       Your wanted variable == 1
   Actions
       Tech Tree - Allow the wanted ability for player 1
       Tech Tree - Disallow the first unwanted ability for player 1
       Tech Tree - Disallow the second unwanted ability for player 1


Then just set the ability up how they have it setup at a building (level 1 on top of 2 on top of 3) and I think that'll work.

I invite you to try out the map I modified. I don't have the creativity to create maps from scratch, but I do have the know-how to modify existing ones; my project is to tweak community campaigns (specifically those with errors—to make them playable.

Ultraviolet shouted: Mr.BurnLiquid actually yeah though I wasn't really saying it to narc on you. It just caught me off guard because I don't usually see it (because it's against the rules) "The avatar may not be bigger than 150x150 pixels". Kinda silly that it relies on users to be well behaved rather than just limiting the dimensions on uploads :lol:
Now that I wanted to change my avatar, the error image is showing up, haha.

Mr.BurnLiquid shouted: Ultraviolet Thanks; I'm new to the site and a Spanish speaker. I must have missed the part where it was prohibited—I'll change it now.
I invite you to try out a mission I'm modifying from *StarCraft Reversed*; I'm trying to make it more playable and challenging.
