Does anyone know how to change the colour of illusions？

[Sakurose]

What I tried:

1,create a illusion and change the colour, faild.
2,create illusion and change the colour of local player,faild.
1,create a illusion for Player12(enemy of all players) and change the illusion 's owner to the spelling hero,faild.

Is it possible to change the colour of illusions？

I tested this trigger and Vertex Coloring doesn't work with Illusions:

• Untitled Trigger 001
  • Events
    • Time - Every 0.40 seconds of game time
  • Conditions
  • Actions
    • Unit Group - Pick every unit in (Units in (Playable map area)) and do (Actions)
      • Loop - Actions
        • If (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions)
          • If - Conditions
            • ((Picked unit) is an illusion) Equal to True
          • Then - Actions
            • Animation - Change (Picked unit)'s vertex coloring to ((Random percentage)%, (Random percentage)%, (Random percentage)%) with 0.00% transparency
            • Special Effect - Create a special effect attached to the overhead of (Picked unit) using Abilities\Spells\Other\TalkToMe\TalkToMe.mdl
            • Special Effect - Destroy (Last created special effect)
          • Else - Actions

You can change the illusion's Player Color though but it will only affect their Hero Glow and possibly Team Coloring:

• Unit - Change color of (Picked unit) to (Color of (Player((Random integer number between 1 and 24))))

So as far as I know, no, you cannot change their color, but there may be a trick out there if you search around the forums.

Thank you.I found a way and have tested just now.

Why do you want to do this? Seems like a lot of work for something that only the player who created the illusions can ever see.

I made some spells like:separate target's soul and body,and damage the body according to the distance between soul and body.A transparent illusions is the soul here
