I'm wanting to create a blink ability that requires two targeted points. The first point being the location being blinked to, the second being in which direction from this first point the unit will be facing.
Now my first problem is just knowing where to even start. I've created a copy of a blink ability to start, but I cannot find very much information. Any help, or even just links to ability tutorials that might be helpful would be great. I'll continue to post to this thread with questions I have during this process.
I already know of the wiki tutorials, and I've skimmed over several pages of the tutorial section of the forums, but I haven't seen anything on two targetted point abilities. Perhaps I need to create two abilities and have one trigger off the other? Wait, no, I need to do this with the data editor to become better familiarized. I could do it with triggers as I would in WC3.
Is there a way to use triggers to bring up a targetting cursor for a player?
Gah,.. guess it's bad to start a thread in the Data section and then ask a trigger question..... I'll make a new post for the trigger section asking this.
What I was trying to do is make a blank ability to trigger off a trigger that will make the unit use another blank ability, but I can't figure out a way how.

Abilities can't have two target points. The targeting system is very limited.
