Hey, I've just started to mess with new swarm editor and want to implement some cool visuals. So, can someone experienced in new additions tell me how can i launch flying unit into another unit as a missile? I tried to learn viper abduct but this abil looks like sh*t in data editor, i can barely understand whats going on.
Launching a unit as a missile can be done by setting the Ammo Unit field to None in a launch missile effect (that was possible in WoL since launch btw).
Changing the Death Type to None will prevent it from dying on impact. This caused problems before, the unit became uncontrollable, it works properly now.
To launch a unit as a missile you use a Launch Missile effect, like any other missile. The main difference is like a tentacle you use the effect to use the movers but you set there to be no ammo unit. You then give the missile no death type on impact.

You could use an Action type actor.

@Kueken531: Go
How do you make it Controllable? Is it through patch or stuff?
When it lands it becomes controllable again.

How? and what Effect do you mean?
To launch a unit as a missile you use a Launch Missile effect, like any other missile. The main difference is like a tentacle you use the effect to use the movers but you set there to be no ammo unit. You then give the missile no death type on impact.
