I've made an ability similar to Kerrigan's Psionic Shift and I wanted the caster to be able to jump over cliff levels with it. But I just don't know how to do it.
I've tried to create a temporary "Jump" behavior, apply it to the unit and change the unit's default mover to Cliff Jumper, but it just won't work.
Kerrigan's ability uses a Force effect to move kerrigan in the specified direction and a behavior to modify the speed. Mine works almost the same way except I use an Issue Order effect, but mine is overall simpler.
However, your reference to the viper ability is interesting. I see that it uses a launch missile effect to launch the unit, but it also uses a socalled "placeholder", which I have no idea how works. Could you explain further to me?
EDIT: Nevermind, I got my ability working. For those who are interested; I copied the Launch Missile effect from Kerrigan's Primal Slash ability instead of using an Issue Order effect. Thx for your reply Spoolofwhool :)

Here's a link so you can see what I mean:

Any suggestions?
Did you look at Kerrigan's ability? I believe it just uses a Launch Missile effect configured to launch the caster. Look at the viper.
