I'm trying to make a tower have a bouncing attack. However, I have the ability and the upgrade on the tower but the attacks do not bounce.

Apparently there is some sort of trick to making attacks bounce for towers?

Anybody know what it is or able to help?

I use this for a tower in my map.

Give the tower the moon glaive ability (you can rename it as you like) and then under upgrade properties make sure upgrade moon glaive is researched for all players that you want to have it. You also need to edit the units maximum number of targets to however many units you want it to hit so that the ability works correctly. Additionally edit the damage factor so that it stays the same or decreases in damage per bounce.

I checked all that, the attacks still aren't bouncing : /

Would having the upgrade researched through a trigger or having multiple levels of the ability affect it?

What I said up there worked for me, and I had different levels too, the only change I made was the maximum number of targets.
