[SOLVED] Ability links

:payne:

I've created certain abilities by duplicating others.
I realized that the cooldown links ("Abil/x") seem to have been kept from the duplicated form. I tried to change them to the new ability's name ("Abil/y"), but couldn't find that new link.

How do I find the name of the link created for the new ability I am using? (Because somehow, it seems like the 2 abilities are using the same link, but have 2 different values of cooldown that do not interfere with each other.)

I think you're supposed to create it yourself, because it's an arbitrary value, same as markers.

Either that or your abilities' cooldown has its Location set to something other than "ability"..

I do stuff and thingies... Try widening and reducing the number of small nooks and crannies to correct the problem.

Markers create links between unit effects. But I don't know much about them. Mutalisk's weapon uses them with the "no markers" validator.

To create a link, you click the add button and add one, then select it.
Else, you could reset the cost field in the ability (right click -> reset to parent value -> first in the list).

UndeadStar -- this made me remember a line in the Broodwar manual static about medics "lengthening the expected battlefield life expectancy to over nine seconds"
