The ability is very obviously triggered.
First Create a unit (stats similar to the caster)
Then make it animate
After that move the caster

well should be a better way to create a dummy unit and cast item Illusion ability on the blinking unit

in more details:

(first make a dummy unit in object editor and give him the Item Illusion spell)
save the location where u used the spell to a point variable
create a dummy unit next to the unit
cast illusion with dummy unit on unit
remove dummy unit
instantly move unit to saved point
remove location *point variable*
and maybe set the effects that u want

I believe the blink itself isn't triggered, only the dummy illusion...

thats true, the reason i would trigger that too cus idk if the illusion will be at the starting or the blinked position
but maybe should be at the starting pos

 

[Adiktuz]

that's why its better to just use a dummy unit that has locust and looks like magina than using a dummy ability... not to say that using illusion will make the unit look blue... and magina's copy is normally colored so obviously its not an illusion, and fades away over time...

the only time you trigger blink is if you want it to be usable on unrevealed terrain...

 

[Lender]

thought he wants to left behind a clone (I forgot about the effect Oo)

 

[Adiktuz]

DotA Magina's blink leaves a clone which is obviously just a locusted unit having magina's model... (its unclickable, undamageable, non-colliding etc...)

 

[Lender]

ic .. that case dummyablility IS a bad idea-_-

 

[Adiktuz]

unless he wants the blink to be castable onto unrevealed areas...

ermm how with the phantom lancer's dropple walk?i like to know how to make it.Any idea or comment will be good for me

 

[Adiktuz]

You can use a custom projectile system for that... and set an onHit behavior which creates a dummy unit which will cast the illusion spell on the target...

 

[GangSpear]

The illusion of phantom lancer's doppel walk,is ordered to the fronts of the phantom lancer

 

[Adiktuz]

oh, I mistook it for the phantom shit... When you cast doppelwalk, a trigger will run which will create a dummy to cast illusion on the PL, then another trigger which fires when a unit enters the map will be run and order it to run in the same direction that PL is facing...
