Flying Trick is Fun

[Rad]

My friend just told me how to make a unit able to fly without actually making them fly, well somethin like that anyways.
Okay if u already know then just go to ur next thread cuz this is worthless to you.

Step 1: Copy Paste the Shockwave ability and the Metamorphisis ability
Step 2: Remove the damage properties and range, AoE etc from Shockwave (or keep range and distance for a jump effect) Also rename this ability Jump and take off animation names and art and edit the icon to whatever. Its a dummy/interface spell. Give this to a blademaster, or whatever will be the jumper.
Step 3: Edit the alternate form unit on the metamorphisis spell to a gryphon rider and thats all for that it wont matter just dont give this to any unit.
Step 4: Create this trigger:

 Jumping
    Events
        Unit - A unit Starts the effect of an ability
    Conditions
        (Ability being cast) Equal to Shockwave
    Actions
        Unit - Add Metamorphosis to (Casting unit)
        Unit - Remove Metamorphosis from (Casting unit)
        Unit - Turn collision for (Casting unit) Off
        Animation - Change (Casting unit) flying height to 500.00 at 500.00
        Wait 1.00 seconds
        Animation - Change (Casting unit) flying height to 0.00 at 1500.00
        Wait 1.00 seconds
        Unit - Turn collision for (Casting unit) On

Step 5: If you wanted to make him jump to the location (And added the distance to Shockwave) then order to move-to target point of ability being cast before u change flying hieght.

He also says u can make em fly for however within the trigger... haven't tested if he can go over cliffs though!

Ummm, why are we doing this?

Add then remove Medivh's Crow Form.

No custom spells or War Stomp ability involved.

Didnt know that, just learned u can make a ground unit fly a few minutes ago...

I use it in my jump ability, Medivh's Crow Form is much better (And more fun ) to bug.

 

[Rad]

Why does it make a ground unit start flying though? Is the druid of the talon (night elf form) able to get air with triggers as-is?

Unless the stats in the Unit Editor say it's movement type is flying, youc an't change it's flying height.

But when you add and remove the Medivh's Raven Form, it will allow you to.
