Staff of Preservation

[imported_Galled]

Hello everyone

How I can make an order to a dummy unit with the Staff of Preservation ability.

I'm making a spell that if the target is freezed the target is teletransported to his base with 1 hit point and 0 mana.

Thanks for the help.

(Sorry but I don't write english very good)

Well when you create the dummy unit in the spell you can reference it by "LastCreatedUnit". You can also use this to store the units reference in a unit variable if you wish to manipulate it outside of the trigger or you have "wait" actions that could desynch what "LastCreatedUnit" is referencing. Like if the trigger fires again by something else while it's still in a wait period o the previous triggering event it will create a new unit and both triggers will be pointing at the same unit.

You have to be careful with that stuff.

But if there is tracable information that's unique to the unit you can find it that way and issue it an order, but typically a dummy is created and manipulated directly afterwards like Order unit "LastCreatedUnit" to cast spell "Unholy Frenzy" or whatever the spell's base name is that you made your custom ability off of.

This is fine for me:

Events
Unit - A unit Starts the effect of an ability
Conditions
(Ability being cast) Equal to Dimensional Strike
((Target unit of ability being cast) has buff Freezing Breath) Equal to True
Actions
--- bla, bla  if with the condition of owner of the unit----
Wait 0.20 seconds
Special Effect - Create a special effect at (Position of (Target unit of ability being cast)) using Abilities\Spells\Human\MassTeleport\MassTeleportTarget.mdl
Unit - Move (Target unit of ability being cast) instantly to (Position of The Wordl Tree 0059 <gen> (Yes is a DOTA'S spell :P )
Unit - Set mana of (Target unit of abiliy being cast) to 0.00
Unit - Set life of (Target unit of ability being cast) to 1.00
Special Effect - Create a special effect at (Position of (Target unit of ability being cast)) using Abilities\Spells\Human\MassTeleport\MassTeleportTarget.mdl

There are other way????

create a dummy
add the item to the dummy with Hero-Create item and give to Hero...it really does not nead to be a hero, give it to last created unit
then say
'order last created unit to use last created item on target of ability being cast'
