Hi all. . .I was creating a spell that would send a unit flying into the air, the only problem is that the unit being sent into the air is a ground unit. I read some previous posts about this ability but i cant really get it to work. Daelin says that i just have to give a unit the crow form(medivh) ability to the unit and remove it instantly. I tried to do that and manipulate the unit's flying height but it doesnt work. Sometimes it hangs. . .I dont know what to do. I tried making the the original form of the unit a ground moving footman and the alternate form unit a flying footman. But it still doesnt work! Can someone guide me through? :(

well, 1st have

add crowform

remove crowform

LEAVE BOTH FORMS ON CROWFORM THE SAME

next, you can manipulate it by using SetUnitFlyHeight as if it was a flying unit.
if this doesnt work, make the unit paused, add the ability, change the heights, remove the ability, unpause the unit. i have tested, and EXTREME bugs will occur if a player is somehow is allowed to cast the crowform
