do u want the frog to just right to the unit? or just up in the air?

EDIT: ok... search for the action height in triggers and u can change the flying height of the unit... thatll make him go into the air

EDIT2: just discovered a catch... the unit has to be a flying unit for that trigger to work... so ull have to make the frog have a flying height... but if u set flight height to 1 u cant even notice it so that should work :D

Don't triple post please... I collapsed your posts into a single one but don't let this happen again. It was purposely, because the messages were different!

Anyway, problem is very simple. You can manipulate an unit's flying height (even if it is ground unit) if you add and remove Crow Form (Medivh) ability from the unit. Just add and remove it immediately. When manipulating the unit's height, the unit doesn't have to have the ability. The fact that the unit had the ability even for a milisecond is enough to allow you to manipulate the height. Cheers!
