Ability doubt

[TzalDadok]

Im kinda noob on this map editing thing. The thing is I made a triggered ability based on the Channel ability that simply does damage and regenerates casters HP. The only thing I cant find the option to add an animation to the caster. I mean he just stands there when the ability casts. Thanks.

Change the Data - Art Duration to 0.01 and Data - Follow Throught Time to 0.01 from the ability you created.

The very topmost field. Art - Animation Names. Depending on the caster's model, you may be able to add spell, spell,slam, attack or death animations. In the Object Editor, go to the Units tab, right-click on your unit and choose Select in Tool Palette. On the left side, click the arrows to see what animations that model has.

Custom script: call SetUnitAnimationByIndex(udg_YOURUNIT, ANIMATIONNUMBER)

YOURUNIT has to be a unit variable.
ANIMATIONNUMBER is an integer value. from 1 to however animations the unit has.

Using this method will overwrite any other animation.
