Ability Help: Bull Rush

[RoarMan]

Working on an ability called Bull Rush. Basically, unit A casts the spell at target Point. Unit is order to move to the target, but I also need to check when unit is at the target Point so I can make it cast a spell and also remove dummy units that give unit A bonus movement speed. I have this so far.

Bull Rush
    Events
        Unit - A unit Begins casting an ability
    Conditions
        (Ability being cast) Equal to Bull Rush 
    Actions
        Unit - Order (Triggering unit) to Move To (Target point of ability being cast)
        Unit - Create 1 Footman for (Owner of (Triggering unit)) at (Target point of ability being cast) facing Default building facing degrees
        Set Bull_Rush_End[(Player number of (Owner of (Triggering unit)))] = (Last created unit)
        If (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions)
            If - Conditions
                (Level of Bull Rush  for (Triggering unit)) Equal to 1
            Then - Actions
                Unit - Add Bull Rush Passive 1  to Bull_Rush_End[(Player number of (Owner of (Triggering unit)))]
            Else - Actions
        If (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions)
            If - Conditions
                (Level of Bull Rush  for (Triggering unit)) Equal to 2
            Then - Actions
                Unit - Add Bull Rush Passive 2  to Bull_Rush_End[(Player number of (Owner of (Triggering unit)))]
            Else - Actions
        If (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions)
            If - Conditions
                (Level of Bull Rush  for (Triggering unit)) Equal to 3
            Then - Actions
                Unit - Add Bull Rush Passive 3  to Bull_Rush_End[(Player number of (Owner of (Triggering unit)))]
            Else - Actions

Just read that the unit was only to increase his movement speed, which he shouldn't need with this. Looks like you also just wanted him to walk there, didn't notice that :[ Well i'll keep this up there just incase you want to use this anyways.
Edited: Jebus, I really screwed the trigger up first attempt sorry xD Should be working now, however.

just as a note playing the animation won't work if there is enemies nearby as he will want to attack them :/ better to pause then use custom script (call SetUnitAnimationByIndex(udg_Unit, ?) you will need to find the animation number

Yeah i paused him on this one skateup, and played a stand animation (Looks good on footmen, not sure about others. Crypt lord could flap wings. Would depend on which unit though.)

Thanks for the suggestion, but I have something else in mind. If things on my end fall apart, I'll be sure to use your suggestion. +rep both of ya.
