Moving a dummy with the caster

[hdm]

How to make the unit move as the caster moves ? Like in the skill Eye of The Storm (DotA). A dark cloud above the hero (is a dummy) is created, and wherever he(ro) moves, it is always above him.

Move dummy instantly to position of caster???

every 0.03 seconds move the cloud to the caster. It's rather simple but if you want it to be MUI it'll be a little tricky.

If you want it to be MUI look up hashtables or indexing.

/\ I tried this but it won't work. I was looking at the spells section, they did it with custom script. Thx anyway everybody, I'll try do this from that spell, thought it is not approved :/

You can use arrays having an index of the array corresponding to the player number of the triggering unit. For example, unit eyeStorm[1] which belongs to player 1 will be instantly moved to razor[1]. Use periodic trigger and add all eyeStorm units to a certain unit group where the periodic trigger consist of Pick every unit in eyeStormGroup.

• Untitled Trigger 001
  • Events
    • Time - Every 0.03 seconds of game time
  • Conditions
  • Actions
    • Set TempLoc = (Position of Your_Unit)
    • Unit - Move TempEffectDummy instantly to TempLoc
    • Custom script: call RemoveLocation (udg_TempLoc)

Something like this?

Could you post a screenshot(s) of the object editor with the dummy?
There are some small things that regular dummies should have and specific dummies shouldnt
