I'm trying to create an ability that when used creates a cone of flame in front of the user. I have all the effects working properly however i cant seem to get the visual effects to work the way i want. What i am aiming for is for a cone of fire to appear in front of the user when the ability is used and when targets are hit so there is a visual effect of them getting hit. All i got working so far in terms of visual effects is the effect that i want to appear when a unit gets hit, however even that isn't working quite right. The effect always seems to appear at the feet of the unit thats hit, so if its a big unit like an ultralisk you can barely see it. I also checked out ProzaicMuze's tutorials on actors but they didn't seem to help me. Any Help would be appreciated.
To sum up what i need help with:
How to properly set up a visual effect that would appear when the ability is cast, whether theres a target or not.
How to change where the visual effect appears for the impact.
