I have two units with fatal damage responses in my map: One of them leaves behind a corpse unit that morphs into a copy of itself, the other leaves behind a psi-storm. The effects fire fine and whatnot, but their location is strange; The handled effect is created at the unit that killed the responder, rather than at the location where the responder died.
I've tried messing around with a bunch of stuff under Damage Response, including all combinations of the "Location" fields, but nothing seems to be working. Help would be greatly appreciated here, as it's somewhat disruptive to game balance when ranged units in your enemy's army are being psi-stormed as soon as they kill your units, or your army of melee units is re-spawning inside theirs :S
The handled effects are a Create Persistent and Create Unit respectively
I rechecked everything and sure enough, i had the locations set properly :S
After awhile i decided to just scrap the five or so hours of progress i made on the map and go back to a backup, then re-do what i lost. I did (As far as i can tell), exactly the same thing, only this time it worked o.O
I'll see about closing this thread or something as it's not really useful to anyone, ty for your help

I'm assuming you've tried this already but I'm just going to double-check. The locations for both effects are set to Caster Unit?

Damage responses use the attacker as "target", and the unit being attacked as "caster" or "source".
Set up your effect tree with the above in mind, and it'll work.
