Hello again, i hope you could help me with this one.

i just found a certain topic that is somewhat interesting.

[Spell] - Making a unit face an angel or direction

i almost got this one. but since i need 5 dummies and make the transformation more dramatic for this one i don't know how do i deal with it.


i like it to be like this but i can't since i'm not that good at it.

Paladin
  • turns color invisible aka transform into bats for 5 seconds then becomes visible again for each bats returns to him
Bats
  • Bats Spreads their position just like in the picture in a dramatic way, each bats holds the 20% of color invisible of the caster, Bats follows him just like this [Spell] - Making a unit face an angel or direction while he was invisible for 5 seconds, they return to the caster after 5 seconds as each of them fills the 20% color of the paladin to make the paladin visible again.

  • Is the paladin controllable/targetable/damageable/selectable during the 5 seconds of invisibility before bats return, or do you intend for it to be hidden and intangible?
  • Are the bats controllable/targetable/damageable/selectable during the 5 seconds they exist, or are they purely visual? If they can be controlled are they forced to return to the unit after the 5s or what?
  • Setting a unit to 100% transparency won't prevent it from being targeted, and some models attached through buffs/effects will not inherit transparency from the unit they're attached to.
  • Clever use of the Neutral Wander ability may get the bats to 'swarm' for 5s with very little trigger work required.

The Paladin is still controllable the only changes is that the color of the model is transparent during 5 seconds of invisibility before bats return.

the bats are locust which they cannot be selected and do anything but only to follow the flow of the trigger where they will spread and go to their position as same as the image, then they will force to return to the paladin like how the locust swarm do when the duration ends.

yes, that's what it needs to be.

the bats only needs to follow the paladin whenever it moves just like the [Spell] - Making a unit face an angel or direction but has dramatic intro & outro like from what i have told in my description. :peasant-smile:
