Adding missiles to abilities

[SSJ7107]

Hello guys... I'm new to World Editor, can I ask how do I add a missile art to aoe abilities? I am making an ability where you throw a missile and it damages the targeted area (AoE). I already created the damage part but I don't know how to do the missile one.... Well, I'm a newbie and someone please help me...

When the targeted area is damaged, create a dummy caster and make it cast silence at this position.

There are a few options to make missiles. If you want the missile to fly at a unit you can use a dummy unit attacking or using an ability. In your case you probably want it to attack the ground, right? A very good and easy solution is using the meat wagon's disease cloud ability. It creates a unit (disease cloud) at the target area upon impact. When a unit casts the ability, create a dummy that attacks the target area (artillery attack type) and set targets allowed to none, so no damage is dealt. The meat wagon ability creates a dummy unit upon impact. Use a unique unit type for this dummy and catch its creation with unit enters entire map, unit type = ... .This way you have a missile + are able to detect when the missile hits the ground.
