Non flying to flying need help

how to get a non-flying unit flying with triggers not look flying, but able to move over cliffs?

U dont need triggers, just go to object editor and set move type: fly and max height to 0.1 or 1 or sumthing.

Ramza, the problem is that he doesn't want to use the object editor. I know other people who wanted that. For example, to make a fly spell.

Flaming, unfortunately only through object editing can you do that. You need to replace a non-flying unit with a flying unit to make it work. So yes, you have a problem here.

For the fly spell, u need object editor to (use crow form, then for alternate u use the same unid with fly height)

U cant let a unit fly with trigger editor if the unit isnt a fly type unit. Why u dont wanna use object editor??

Becouse the unit is not supposed to have flying as standard movement. He wants it to be changeable for different sitations.
I will never forgive Blizzard for not adding a native to change unit movement type. It forces me to use two different dummies as well as causing Flaming's problem.

Ok then its not possible with no dummy ty anyway. If we all just report it to blizzard maybe in a new patch they might change it

I doubt that. I already reported simpler stuff such as a bonus for SetUnitStat so that it can be used to manipulate maximum HP and MP. But as you can see, no improvement. I say we are wasting our time. They will update only what they want.

First they'll upgrade WoW to its limits ;(

I was actually curious to this problem myself, my friend wanted a spell that lifted an enemy unit into the air, but it couldn't be done unless the unit was already flying.

Then I played Tides of Blood and saw that one guys move where he jumps into the air and I was baffled.

I guess dummy units explains it...

wow, that's a completely different case. The flying you saw in TOB was the same guy; only it was tirggered flying and he was able to do that because of the flying trick, wherein you add then remove a metamorphesis ability to allow a change in that unit's flying height. As for your friend, i'm not sure to what extent he wanted but you can easily do that without anything using a custom effect (namely the impale wityhoput the giant spike) and use that on a unit and you'll toss em into the air for the duration of the actual impale effect. Simple change for what you want, unless what your friend wants is a lot harder than that.

Still i always wanted blizzard to add their detection of attack types or setting the damage area to affect whom you wanted it too (my reasons are for hitting larger buldings)
