Hi.

I need to know how can I change the height above ground of a doodad. I can't do it manually because this doodad is created during the game, with a trigger.

I want it to be suspended in the air, and I don't know how.
Any ideas?

Regards

Well you can try using a dummy unit for the doodad model, make its movement type hovering or flying and change the flying height. Add "Locust" ability in the units ability section and it will make it unclickable and hide its HP bar. Using dummy units lets you use a larger and smaller scaling, and apply color.

I belive you can set flight heigt of a dooad im not sure tho.

you can create a unit and give it the ability locust so it cant be targeted.

edit;


its simple just select ur doodads and pres ctrl and page up. Hold it and soon it will have height like some flying unit. This is very useful fo many terraining tricks

he wanted to do INSIDE the game NOT from the editor
