Cancel Cast

Description

Cancels the target player's active spell cast. The cast is recorded with the cancelled cancel reason, and the ~onSpellCastCancel trigger fires.

If the target is not currently casting, the mechanic returns CONDITION_FAILED.

This is the right mechanic to use to silently stop a cast (e.g. inside a "channel-break-on-stun" effect). To explicitly interrupt a cast — which fires the dedicated ~onSpellCastInterrupt trigger and respects the spell's Casting.Interruptible flag — use interrupt instead.
