1)does any one know (by example or do it for me:) of a way to get a small region to move to the spot of a unit that just died(unit is not user controlled or preplaced)?

2)is it true that when u edit a spell and insert it into a map (i use winmpq) the editted spell wont work online?if so could u tell me how to fix this?

1. Yes, use the region - move region action to the position of the dying unit. Pleas note, miving regions will have other effect to the original position.

2 & 3. Wait for WC3 expansion to come out in one week!

Here's some region specs that I wrote in this thread a while ago.....

1. Events can not tell that the region has moved. That means if you are using a unit enters region event, it will register the first location of the region, NOT ANY OTHER SPOT.

2. If units are ordered to move to a region that has been relocated (or they are moved instantly, whatever), THEY WILL MOVE TO THE NEW SPOT.

There, do ya see? Actions are good but Conditions and Events won't work with it anymore. :D

1) Dude, just attach it to the postition of the unit that died. :bangH:

2) No

3) Blizzard can not be reversed to mass heal. Use warstomp or something.

I would assume that changing the damage value of Blizzard to a negative number and changing the targets from bad guys to good guys would change it from a damage spell to a heal spell.

However, SpectreReturns is pretty adamant that it wouldn't work. Having not tried it myself, I can only recommend that you try it out yourself.

And no, I've never had any problem with added spells not working correctly on Battle.net.
