Transformation Spell

[teves]

Hello there, i am creating a new spell and i have one problem with it.
this spell used for druied, when you use it the hero will transfer from druied to a wolf model but there is 2 problems.
the first one is that when i transfer to a wolf i dont know what is the most suitable ability base as unit to be used to be transfered back to a druied while i am in wolf shape. (i dont want to make it as (ability normal) not as (ability hero which need to be upgradeable)

and my 2nd problem is that when i transfer to wolf all of my upgraded spells need-ed to be re-upgraded
so i want them to be saved as i was before in druied shape

thx.

• druid spell
  • Events
    • Unit - A unit Starts the effect of an ability
  • Conditions
    • (Ability being cast) Equal to Werewolf
  • Actions
    • Wait 2.50 seconds
    • Unit - Replace (Casting unit) with a Werewolf using The old unit's relative life and mana

so i want when i transfer it back to druid shape, all the upgraded spells stays the same which mean i dont have to re-upgrade them again

use [trigger] tags instead.

could you not use the morph ability instead of triggering it?

 

[millzy]

for ur base ability use the metamorphosis skill the illifdan uses and change:
data - alternate form - (your bear)
data normal form units - (your druid)
stats - cooldown - 0
stats duration hero - 0

As Millzy said, using a morph ability should do the job. If you want it to be a normal ability so that it's not level-able and your hero has it from Level 1, set the field "Stat - Hero Ability" to false in the Object Editor.

As for your second problem, it's due to your trigger replacing the entire unit for another; nothing gets transferred in that situation. Again, using a morph ability will avoid the problem.

problem solved, thanks

 

[Dehua_Darbuya]

No worries.

 

[teves]

No worries.

hmm.. Bugged.
now when i am druid and have 2 spells upgraded (transformation to Werewolf and Transformation to Bear Shape) when i Select Transformation to -Bear Shape Spell- both 2 spells gets selected and it transfer to Werewolf Shape only
But When Werewolf Spell is not upgraded and Transformation to Bear Shape spell is upgraded only it works perfectly and change into Bear Shape.

Here are 3 Screenshots to make it more clear:

The two spells are based on the same ability, you shall base Bear shape on another spell.

 

[Dehua_Darbuya]

Yeah kamyflex has it; one of the abilities need to be based off another morph ability.

Edit: There's also a weird interaction which is touch on by The Warcraft III "Weird" Ability Guide:

Metamorphosis:
The Duration - Normal field determines how long the user "holds" until the morph takes place.
