[Spell] ability that change your model, to the targeting model

[Danyyy]

Hello! i wonder if its possible to make an ability that change my hero model, to the targeting. and next time i use it,
to switch back again. Thx!

Not possible really.

You could use transform ability, and create a spell level for each possible model in the map.

it is possible
i triggered something the way you want it and it works fine
problem: all heroes mustn't have abilitys, they have to be added via trigger
this is an easy fastmade preview hope you like it

Nixii, suppposing that your solution works, I see an important issues:

1 - For what he says, he just want to change the caster, not the target. hero_stats from 7 to 12 are not necessary, and the last group of actions of your trigger should not be there.

And of course, as you say, the caster should be given the ability to return to normal state.

Regards

you are right, change target hero was not the task, my mistake.
i didn't trigger any details like save the items or set the correct spells, i just wanted to show that it is possible to solve danyyy's problem.

 

[Danyyy]

Very intresting, thank you for answering!
