Hello!
I have made a simple template, featuring a dummy unit. I know this is extremely basic, but I hope it might prove useful to some.
If you have just started using the world editor, you might ask yourself ''what are dummies for?''
Well, if you would like to cast an ability, for example storm bolt but also want the target unit to be victim of chain lightning, you can use a dummy unit, add chain lightning to it and order it to cast chain lightning on the target unit. Here is an example trigger:
*PROS with this dummy unit
Enjoy!

Well, if you would like to cast an ability, for example storm bolt but also want the target unit to be victim of chain lightning, you can use a dummy unit, add chain lightning to it and order it to cast chain lightning on the target unit. Here is an example trigger:
Trigger:
- Storm Bolt Plus Chain Lightning
- Events
- Unit - A unit Starts the effect of an ability
- Conditions
- (Ability being cast) Equal to Storm Bolt
- Actions
- Set Point = (Position of (Triggering unit))
- Unit - Create 1 Dummy for (Owner of (Triggering unit)) at Point facing Default building facing degrees
- Unit - Add a 3.00 second Generic expiration timer to (Last created unit)
- Unit - Add Chain Lightning to (Last created unit)
- Unit - Set level of Chain Lightning for (Last created unit) to (Level of Storm Bolt for (Triggering unit))
- Unit - Order (Last created unit) to Orc Far Seer - Chain Lightning (Target unit of ability being cast)
- Custom script: call RemoveLocation (udg_Point)
- Events
*PROS with this dummy unit
- All abilities are instant casted, you can even cast more than one spell at the same time with the same dummy.
- The dummy dies without any timers or triggers by itself after 3 seconds.
- Easy to import when you have just started making a map, and just can't be bothered with creating a brand new dummy.
- Have ALL the feilds set up right for you, so you don't need to read a tutorial or spend 20 minutes looking for each field.
Enjoy!
