[Trigger] SetUnitX SetUnitY channeling spell problem

[SharSash]

Hi! I came up with an idea to make a non channeled Tranqulity spell. For that i decided to make a dummy unit that would cast a spell itseld and periodically would be moved to a hero caster. I couldn't use "instatly move to a point" option as it interrupst orders and casts. So I went on with SetUnitX SetUnitY. But the problem is after unit is moved spell remains on the place it was cated on (see screenshot). How do I fix that? How to i make spell follow the dummy unit? Thanks in advance!

I don't think you can make the spell follow if it doesn't work like that already. Tranquility is a hard-coded spell and it was probably never accounted for the fact that it might move.

Maybe you can instead create the dummy and give it a regeneration aura, and attach the tranquility effect to it manually?

I thought of that. But auras' effects stay after anit leaves AoE for a second more or so. And if I remove aura's buff with a trigger after i don't need it it can spoil the effect for another unit nearby who can have the same aura.

Well, the only other solution I can think of is to manually trigger the spell's effect. Thankfully it should be fairly straightforward to implement. Maybe someone else here has a better solution. Good luck.
