Topic: Help on making a custom "Build" ability

Hi, I'm relitively experienced using the World Editor and I wanted to design a custom "build" ability for one of my units. Normally I would just go into the Object Editor/Ability Editor and do custom ability and tinker with it from there. But I can't seem to find any of the pre-constructed Build abilities to use as a template. I can assign those pre-constructed to my units, but I can't seem to find them.

Also, just out of curiocity, I was wondering if there was a way to construct a raw ability without any other pre-constructed ability as a template. This is a less important question, I'd prefer getting the first one answered if anything, but if you happen to know this one as well I would most appreciate it.

Thanks for any help!

Never mind, I figured it out my self, well, not the second question.

And, I'm probably not going to use this site any more due to the lack of support...

Sorry that you did not get a decent reply within 8 hours on the first day of the year. I mean, it's not like this is an extra-ordinary day or anything. I suppose it's more of a blessing: If you're not patient enough to wait a day, perhaps your company wouldn't be appreciated to begin with.

For your second question, I don't quite get what you mean. To me it sounds like you want a ability that is open to do anything (aka. a universal ability), which I do not believe exists. What you can do is have a dummy ability that triggers an ability made by triggers. Triggered abilities is the best way to do whatever you want.
