Boomerang spell

[thegreatninjaman]

i need a boomerang spell for my map. i need it to throw a blade in a straight line then return in a straight line. i also need it easily editable for rebalancing and GUI if possible.

credits will be given

What if the Caster moves, after deploying the boomerang ?
Do the boomerang still follows its owner, or returns in a single straight line at the initial position ?

hmm, i think moving back in a straight line might work as well.

Since it's quite outdated in some parts, go to the Dummy Missile unit in the Object editor and set Combat - Can't raise, does not decay.

• Unit - Cause (Load (Key caster) of (Key B_MissileDummy) in B_Hash) to damage (Picked unit), dealing 40.00 damage of attack type Spells and damage type Normal

This line damages the target; as an example, I used 40 damage.
If you want level-based damage, you need to save the damage to the dummy missile, just like I do in the actions of the first trigger and load it with a real variable.
