Are you sure, the persistent effect works by itself? I am pretty sure, you can create all kinds of effects via trigger, including persistent. If you are 100% certain, it doesn't work, you can still use a set effect, which starts the persistent and execute the set via trigger.

You could also try adding a behavior to the unit which causes the persistent effect.

turokhunter Regular ShmoeHey guys, I'm trying to have triggers create a persistent effect. But for some reason using the create effect on unit functions doesn't work for Create Persistent. I tried it with apply behavior and it works. I was wondering if someone knows how to get a trigger to create persistent from source to target.
Thank you for your help in advance
