Any suggestions as to what I should modify to make the Reaper's jet pack have the unit fly temporarily. Like jumping up to attack an air unit. I suppose I could trigger it but I think this would look cleaner.
You need a Morph ability and a copy of the Reaper unit with the Mover set to Fly, as well as some other adjustments. Just compare the entire Movement field series with a stock flying unit.
You can temporarily change a unit's target type (Plane Array+) and/or completely disable collision with units, but traversing abyss/water requires a morph.
Alright I'll try to do that. I do not believe Abyss/water will come into play anytime soon if at all. Thanks for the help I'll look into it starting there. So basically i have the behavior change the unit to the flying copy? or just set the fly modify to the behavior?
That would have a limited number of uses, and it only works for hero-type units: Upgrades affect the entire unit type, so they're only useable for this kind of purpose if the player only owns 1 of that unit.
You need some kind of activation trigger which then casts an Issue Order effect on the reaper, which orders the morph. Since the unit morphs anyway you don't need a buff to change the other stats.

You could use upgrades to change it's mover
Still alive and kicking, just busy.
