Ghost Spell

[Donkey_Kong_JR]

I'm trying to make a spell where when the unit dies a ghost comes up from its corps, but I can't figure out how to do it without triggers. Is this possible without triggers?

I suggest checking the ability that hydras have. They spawn smaller units when they die. I havent looked how it works but i think its possible

If you really hate triggers, do what burned said, but i have to tell you this. Without at least basic knowledge of triggers, you won't get far. I advise you to start learning, there are good tutorials that cover triggers on the hive. Good luck with that!

you would also need a condition like 'Triggering Unit has the Ghost abylity' (freehand, dont know if there is such a condition)

I looked at spawn hydra it seems like it can, give it a try.

hm ok then try it^^

 

[Donkey_Kong_JR]

The spawn hydra idea worked thanks, I appreciate it

Why dont you use trigger like this?

• Event
• A unit is died
• Condition
• Unit dies is equal to unit type of "bla3"
• Action
• Create 1 "Unit" in dying unit position

I think its beter not to use triggers if you dont have to. NP

 

[Volvox]

I thing a good reason why not to use that trigger is; your english sucks hard...

Triggers... They're the reason why this forum exists in the first place. If you hate them so bad, you can ask us to make the spell for you, then just copy them into the map...
