Lightning effect art help(Bouncing attack dont seem to work)

[13lack.1)ragon]

K i want my tower's attack art to be that of a chimeraes or thunder hawk. thing is, its attacks bounce which seems to disactivate the ability ''lightning attack'' (gives lightning arts) i tried making tower nonbouncing and it worked (the art) pls help this it is not a big demanding problem but id like help on this, any at all. (By the way its supposeded to look like chainlightning ina way when it attacks.)

well you could just do somehting like adding a chain lightning ability to your tower and also say lower the towers damage to like.. 1 so that all the damage will be done by the chain lightning. Then do a trigger like this:

Chain Tower
    Events
        Unit - A unit Is attacked
    Conditions
        (Unit-type of (Attacking unit)) Equal to Lightning Tower
    Actions
        Unit - Order (Attacking unit) to Orc Far Seer - Chain Lightning (Attacked unit)

What this does is everytime the tower attacks someone with it massive 1 whole damage, it will cast Chain Lightning on the attacked unit. To make this suit your needs just make a new custom spell chain lightning out of Far seers chain lightning attack and edit it to your tower needs, such as its cooldown and Dmg and mana cost, number of bounces ect.. Just make a new spell so that you dont mess with far seers abilitly if you are using him in your map. Hope this helps and i hope this is what you wanted. Also this should make the bouncing art attack you wanted.

actuially i had this in plan B for myself but the tower SDOES have upgrades (ie: increased damage) is there a way to make an upgrade affect the chainlightning?

ummm... give chain lightning in the object editor, more lvs and go through and edit the damages and number of hits for each one, then use a trigger that say, when the tower is upgraded to level up chainlightning to lv 2
