Hey,

In an undisclosed project I'm working on I've been having a weird problem. What happens is that when I click any ability other than Eat the game will auto-click Eat. I have no idea whats going on here so I'm requesting someone to help me fix whatever is wrong.

Map attached.

I'm back =) I have to go to school now so I'll check out the map later. I think you forgot to add a condition to the trigger to confirm that the spell casted is eat.

Nope, all of the triggers have the condition on them.

All your abilities are based on Thunderclap. You can't have more than one ability on a unit with the same base ability, or it will bug. The only exception is the ability Channel, here you can set different base IDs for the different abilities to make them work together.

Ah, thanks for the info.
Edit: Tried using channel, it doesn't show up in-game and their isn't a Bade ID field. Still need a solution.

Click this to learn how to use Channel. :wink:
Base Order ID: The Base Order ID is the ID of the spell. In Channel, if we change it, it actually HAS an effect. Changing the ID can help because if a hero has two abilities based off the same ability, their IDs get messed up and he'll try to cast both. Changing this in Channel will change it's ID to something different, meaning you can have multiple Channels on the same hero.
Options: Options is very important. If you do not check the box that sais 'Visible' within Options, that means you cannot see or cast the ability when it's on a unit. This is the only one you need to worry about in Options for now.

Some bugs found.
Fire doesn't decrease in health as you used the wrong action again.
Copy the action I used for damaging the units when they starve.
The triggers fire path 2's condition is resource 4 is greater or equal to one. Why is it one? It should be 50.
That seems to be all
