Slowing down speed of projectiles?

Other then creating a dummy unit with the slower projectile attack speed, is there another way to slow down the speed of a missile or something, GUI or JASS? I haven't seen one, but it would be helpful. If you have any idea, go ahead and post.

Do you mean have a skill that slows down missiles or do you mean to have the base speed of the missile slower than it is, because I'm sure there's a box with missile speed in the WE.

Like he said, he can create another unit with lower procectile speed so i think he knows that there's a box for it. Anyways, the solution you came up with yourself, a dummy unit, is as i see it the only solution.

However, my JASS knowledge isn't the greatest around.

Yes, I mean like slowing down the speed in game. I had a neat idea for a spell.

Does anyone else have an idea?

I dun fully get what you mean, but do you mean like the Amazon's Slow Missile skill?

I dont know what the slow missile spell is, but what I mean is that if a meat wagon normally attacks with an attack speed of 500, this will be halved when the spell is cast. Do you understand now?

Sounds to me like a custom unit model and other happy stuff. Allthough, I guess it's possible to doit otherwise without faking. Wait, nevermind. Your best bet is just to flat out just fake the missle. Sorry. :P

I wonder, does Thunderclap slow down the missile projectile also? Or does it only slow down the unit's attack animation?

Sorry for me not responding earlier, my internet went out >.<. Stupid thunderstorm. LM, I might say you were spamming, but previously I said someone was spamming when I didnt look close enough and got my head handed to me on a plate. (Ok, not that bad, but close). Anyway, looks like there's no known method. Looks like I'll have to work on something else. Oh well.

Thanks for the help.
