How to trigger this ability

[Lightstalker]

I'm trying to create an ability that uses a nearby corpse to create a copy of the caster. So far, I've based it on Animate Dead, but I don't know how to pick the newly created unit and replace it with a copy.

Base an ability on Channel.

You need trigger action:
Unit - Create unit of unit type of triggering unit

 

[Lightstalker]

But how do I make it use a corpse?

you can also make a trigger pick near unit in range,
then if then else condition > Boolean > if picked unit is dead equal to true.
the remove unit from game ( crop can be remove.)
then create a unit at the position of picked unit.

if you need i can make a trigger for u

you could base it off the necromancer spell raise dead and just mark Hero Ability to True and put in the selected amount of levels and the unit you want to spawn
