I'm making a map where it ahs spells, so how can I get the spell casted where the eprson casts from?

I was thinking having a location follow a unit? Possible?

Make a location possibly 4x4 or 2x2 follow the unit.
When you cast the spell make it something like this:

null

Trigger

Players:

¤ Player X

Conditions:

¤ Current player did something for spell

Actions:

¤ Do spell affects at the location designated for Current Player

¤ Anything else

¤ Preserve Trigger

It's quite simple as you can see, although you have to be careful with airunits over units in the unplaceable terrain.

But how do I get the location to follow the unit?

The MoveLocation action. Just simply tell it to center location on the unit you want whenever you need it to happen. Preserving trigger allows it to continually center the location on the unit at all times so you know where it is. Hyper triggers make it work more effectively as well.

heres the exact trigger you wanted:

null

Trigger

Conditions:

¤ Always

Actions:

¤ Move Location: Center Location labled "location" on "units" owned by "Player" at "Location"

¤ Preserve Trigger

¤ Comment: Center Locationi(Optional)

See the example of the location following the while it dies when you walk into the "fire"
But the basic concept of the location following the ling is there
