Hi! has anyone tried Eternal Conflict? (ofcourse you have) and the sorceress there, her ultimate is called frozen orb i think, its made of a spell that can target ground or unit, (shockwave, carrion swarm) that doesnt take dmg. When cast, a dummy unit is created (with model -frost wyrms attack projectile) then the dummy unit travels like 1000 then dies, the dummy has phoenix fire without any duration and the projectile is changed and cooldown decreased, so it attacks anyone nearby.

the point with this thread is, i need help with making the model move 1000 from the casters current posistion, it no problem making the dummy unit, and make it move to target point, but i want it to move even further, i saw somewhere in the forums some time ago, something like, set point variable polar projection?? casters facing +1000, but i looked in the triggers, without any luck :( help would be rep'ed (not raped )

I'm not coming back if you rape my rep.

You're on TFT right?

When you choose your point there is a list like, center of region, point, point with offset and, point with polar offset. Choose the bold one, if you didn't figure that out already ^_^. Then you want to tell it
Code:
(Position of (Casting Unit)) offset by 1000 towards (Math - Angle between points - Angle between (Position of (Casting Unit)) and (Position of (Targeted Unit))

That should be what you want.

Is there a reason you can't use shockwave?

yeah. i want there to be a flying fireball that shoots flames at nearby units, putting them on fire :) thanks, (edit) but does yours have to target a unit? (edit)

(edit) i think iv figured it out, if i use, posistion of casting unit by 1000 towards facing of casting unit. and it worked the first time i tried it :P

Oh, sorry. I thought you were targeting something.

That's what you want then.
