Buff Not Dissapearing When Unit leaves AOE range?

[NightElf125]

The buff I made seems to still show up in the status of the unit even when the unit leaves the AOE range of the spell after being affected by it, and it seems to only dissapear when the unit is killed. How do I remove the buff when the unit exits the range of the spell? Shouldn't it do this automatically when the unit leaves the AOE range?

what's the base ID of the spell?

 

[NightElf125]

Aasl (Slow Aura Tornado) ?

Is it triggered at all? If so post them.

 

[NightElf125]

No it's not triggered, and sometimes it seems to disappear as soon as the dummy unit is killed, or seconds afterwards. When I pair any buff with this spell, the same thing happens.

So I'm wondering if I have to make some sort of trigger, or if it's something with the spell?

Can you screenshot all the details in the object editor and post them here please

Have you checked if the duration of the buff is interferring with the trigger?

Here is the Buff:



Here is the Spell:



I have an immolation spell that I have as one of the unit's abilities and I wanted it to show up as a buff. But since immolation doesn't have a buff appear on enemy units I used the Slow Aura Tornado Spell and Buff and edited them. The immolation spell has the same AOE as the Slow Aura Tornado Spell.

Here is the immolation spell:

Hmmm, so no one has any idea?

No double posts!

You have to set the duration to something or the buff will last forever, so just set it to 0.01 for hero and normal and it should work properly (Thats the duration until it disappears)

Yes, that should work. Lots of the fields in the Object Editor take 0.00 as infinity but using 0.01 seems to be equally as instantaneous. When using 0.01 for certain buff durations (such as Acid Bomb) you don't even see the buff appear on the target unit.

In area of effect auras the "duration" field typically applies to the duration that the buff will last once the unit has exited the radius of the spell/aura.

Ok cool, thanks guys.

And by the way, as Axarion said, don't double post unless you're bumping the thread (wait 24 hours first)

Most of this site's users live in the same group of timezones and so we are only active on here at certain times per day.

Glad you figured it out, cheers.
