[General] my dummy is not looping

[stan0033]

So I made spell out of channel for target point and with trigger I add dummy to that point with triggrt, the dummy has model <Resurrection>, which is animated effect. In the editor is looping, but when I use the spell, not. So, what happens is the dummy appears, plays its animation and never appear again.

Everything loops in the editor display. whether or not it actually does ingame.

Can I make it loop ingame? Will it loop if I use special effect trigger?

The editor always loops the effect. But they won't do that ingame (except for a few, auras fx.). If you want the dummy unit to look like it is using the Resurrection model you have to create a special effect on the unit via triggers.

It doesn't loop with special effect too :O

No. You will have to trigger the loop.
Every X seconds of game time. Where x is the approximated time the effect uses to complete its cycle.

How about the scaling? With specialeffect I can't make the effect bigger, so I should recreate dummy unit every 0.50 secs?

If a special effect is created at a location it will show the default scale.
If the effect is attached to a model it will use the unit's scale. In your case I think you would need to use the unit's origin attachment point.
