[General] Make AI cast spells

[sethmachine]

Hi,

I checked out this very helpful tutorial/thread: http://www.hiveworkshop.com/forums/...ustom-spells-cast-melee-game-ai-units-193280/

but it appears the information is misleading...

I made several custom abilities based on standard ability rawcodes, namely:

Carrion Swarm

Parasite

However, the computer player never casts these, ever. Even though I've met the conditions on the thread:

~Fire Breath/Shockwave/Carrion Swarm/Impale - Will cast if there are at least 2 to 3 units in a cone.

~Parasite - Always casts on the furthest target inside the range.

What could the the problem?

Player must be controlled by a computer to cast spells.

The ai will not cast carrion swarm if the damage is 0 but you probably known this.
but for parasite I do not know what could not work.

Both abilities will require at least 0.01 damage. As long as they are controlled by a computer then it should work...
