Off-hand Attachment

[legospencer]

I'm attempting to have a fishing spell that, once cast, attaches a fishing rod model in the casting unit's off-hand. I don't want the rod to appear over the unit's weapon, but I don't know if it's possible to attach something specifically to a unit's off-hand, and I can't simply place the rod in one specific hand (left/right), because different units hold their weapons in different hands. Anyone know an efficient solution to this?

Nah, there is only this:

• Trigger1
• Events
  • Map Initialization
• Conditions
• Actions
  • ---Make a Unit-type variable, that will store every unit that has the left hand "taken"---
  • Set UnitTypes[1] = Footman
  • Set UnitTypes[2] = Paladin
  • Set UnitTypes[3] = Archmage

• Trigger2
• Events
  • Unit - A unit starts the effect of an ability
• Conditions
  • (Ability being cast) Equal to X
• Actions
  • For each (IntegerA) from 1 to 3, do (Actions)
    • Loop - Actions
      • If (All conditions are true) then do (Actions) else do (Actions)
        • If - Conditions
          • (Unit-type of (Triggering unit)) Equal to UnitTypes[(IntegerA)]
        • Then - Actions
          • Special Effect - Create a special effect at hand,right of (Triggering unit) using x.mdl
        • Else - Actions

Yeah, I was afraid of that. Not too hard to deal with though. Thanks. +rep
