hey,
I have been fighting with this for hours and would really appreciate any help -
I'm using models that weren't created as heroes - as heroes, so I added a hero glow by making a passive hero glow ability based on "slow aura". currently I am making a temporary morph spell for one of these heroes and for some reason when he morphs it changes the hero glow to red. this stays red after it morphs back too.
after much experimenting, it doesn't help to do any of the following:
- use a diff unit model,
- change vertex coloring,
- take away the glow ability and give it back,
- make the glow model an effect and not an ability,
- base the ability off of a different morph (this problem happened both with metamorphosis and with chemical rage),
- change and change back the unit ownership
- make the morphed unit get the glow ability only after a "wait"
when I take away the glow from the morphed version - first the glow changes to red, and only then disappears.
does anyone have any idea what's going wrong or how I can change the color back?
thanks!
EDIT: another problem I'm having with this spell that seems to be another symptom of the same issue- for some reason I can only add the triggered "actions" of the spell after a 1 second wait (I didn't play around with finding the exact time too much, but half a second wasn't enough.). otherwise, the triggered actions (it's an aura, so it's visually apparent) appear for a fraction of a second and then disappear.
would be happy for any help... thanks!!
