instant moving cancels spell, how not to?

[skamigo]

So I'm trying to make a spell, where 2 units are connected by a string, and when one moves, the other one moves with him (the other one is immovable on his own when the spell is casted on him).

So I'm using aerial shackles for this, I make a dummy unit at the caster and cast shackels on the target. But I think when I move the casting dummy unit, it cancels the channeling (movement done by Move(instant)).

So my question is, or rather questions, how can I make it so the spell isn't canceled, and if that's not possible, what spell (or command) should I use to make this work?

Thx and +rep for help

Instead of using Aeriel Shackle for the "lightning" effect, why don't you use the Lightning action ???

• Lightning - Create Aerial Shackle...

To move it, just use Lightning - Move action

you will have to use 2 lines of custom script:
set x = x of location
set y = y of location
call SetUnitX(udg_unit, udg_x)
call SetUnitY(udg_unit, udg_y)

SetUnitX/Y does not cancel movement
