So when you click to cast a skill, you enter what is called "target mode" (example: When you click on psionic storm, it says "Select target" and you can cancel the ability). I'm wondering if there is a way to completely remove target mode, or prevent it from hiding the command-card.
I understand that this is most likely impossible, but I was curious if anyone knows anything about it!
you can create a command card with dialogs. maybe just put it over it. also i think ppl talked about a "smart cast" like flag lately that causes an ability to be cast at mouse position rather than aquiring a target.
Well that's been something I've been avoiding but it might come to that.
From my understanding, smartcast in blizzard terms means that it casts on right-click, which isn't really ideal when you have multiple abilities to work with. I could be wrong though.
The smartcast most people have referred to is a quick-cast on your cursor which is used via triggers (where you hook up two abilities, one instant and one targeted), however the problem with this method is that units hit the ability cap twice as quickly, which has finally happened.
Try enabling "transient" under the ability flags. What this does is immediately cast the ability without interrupting any commands that are already queued. The only problem is that this might make the ability not work at all, but it's worth a shot.
A recent patch added the Quick Cast (not the same as Smart Cast) feature from Heroes of the Storm, which causes a targeted ability to be launched at the position of the cursor on hotkey press, rather than entering targeting mode.
Quick Cast is enabled under Game UI Data and can be set to Key Press DOWN or Key Press UP (for UP, targeting mode is enabled while the key is held down).
