Have trigger notice illusions?

[Faestus]

Hi.

I want to make a trigger notice illusions when they are summoned.

I tried "Summoned Unit" but it doesn't work!

I try changing their color but they still appear blue!

Use "Unit enters region", where region is playable map area.

Check if triggering unit is an illusion (boolean).

AFAIK there's nothing you can do about the blue colour; you'd have to either make them for another player or use normal units.

Well I changed it's color and it appears properly if owned by other players.

Illusions will always have its colour to Blue for allied units' visual, unless it's from the enemy.
It is hard-coded and you can't change it.
There's a trick to it but it needs a real unit (which in this case if the unit is a Hero - would be a problem).

I remember before I made an illusion and it was the same color... The illusion had equal strength as the hero and take equal damage..

Well, there must be a solid reason as to why Blizzard did not allow the illusion to appear none other than the pre-set colour (Blue) to allied units - to avoid confusion.

As for Tropy, the only thing I can think of is that you did not really create an "illusion" but somehow a copy of that Hero is being created on that game - such as Meepo from DotA, they have the same colour because they are indeed 4 different units.

Well I guess if I remove the unit when it dies it will stop it from re spawning...
