Sorry if this is in the wrong section

How do I create a waygate animation? I am not using an actual waygate building, I have a different building I am using to teleport units when they enter a region. My triggers for teleporting from region 1 to region 2 are all setup and working fine :) but I would like to have the waygate animation occur at the new location the units are teleporting to

I figure this is pretty simple, but I cant seem to find this one, I was able to animate doors and also a shimmering portal, but those are not specific to a units location.

Using a trigger with special effects would be pretty simple.
