In the Chimera plugin the unit kyrilla has the abiility to teleport around the map. Is this a scripted action or is it part of a proj tag.

I ask because i was trying to make a soulblighter unit that could teleport around via converging and diverging crows. If anyone knows how to do this please let me know.

Well in HoC the players has control of the Teleporting Warlock which requeres several lines of script but If your doing it for a NPC then your in luck. Basically what happens to Warlock is that his secondary attack throws an invisible ball and when it hits the ground it becomes a different ball (with the header nessesary for tele)...The script is in constant look out for this projectile and activates the teleport script once it sees the projectile.

This is made for instant teleport..if you wanted the crow effect I suggest making the time on Teleport in at about 5.0 but you have to remember to make an equel delay to the monsters (is he dead yet?) test of death..other wise game will end if hes last on team.

Lotm is the header that was used for the teleport ball..it is the projectile that the script is looking for to activate the tele script.

Road! the warlock doesn't teleport. It just shows the effect but stays in one place.
