When the archmage dies while casting Psonic Storm, his decay animation doesn't happen. He just freezes in the standing position and slowly dissapears. Does anyone know why?

You can make an optional trigger which has the events: (unit stops casting an ability) and (unit finishes casting an abilty). Condition: (Ability being cast) equal to your ability. Action: You unpause the casting unit if this is the problem. Hopefully it works!!!

They actually don't... Only the decaying animation is shown not the death animation itself. Once dead, units lose the paused property.

of course they do

. i tested it after having read your post again. paused units play their normal animations (stand, death, decay etc.). if i could, i would attach my test-map
