Hi guys. I have a problem with a spell of mine.
What I want to do is simply make the casting unit completely immovable (as in 'paused' for example), and that it can be returned to normal (read 'unpause') by another unit later if the owning player so wishes.
The chrystallised unit shouldn't be selectable either, just stand around as a doodad until it's returned to normal. This is becaue I want to be able to cast certain triggered spells only on units that are chrystallised.
I've had a few successful attempts at achieving the freeze (which didn't really look good though), but I couldn't get it to unfreeze anyway.
Thus I remade the trigger a few times more and now I really can't get it to work at all. At least not to satisfacton.
This is what my feeble attempts have got me atm: :banghead:
I've also tried using a unit-change ability (night elves bear form) to change into a unit with diffrent coloring and no movespeed and such, but then I can't use casting unit for some reason. I guess it has to do with the fact that th unit is replaced by the spell.
Anyone got any bright ideas? I don't, sadly
I'll give +rep for all serious attempts to help of course :thup:
