What sounds like is happening is each area search the helion does is resulting in damage instead of it allowing damage only once. Because a unit can appear in multiple searches it normally makes a pool to keep track of those already affect. It sounds like your pool is not working so it instead damages all units for every step the flame makes.

Try experimenting with the effect data. The relation ships are not fully know by me. Perhapes the set effect is important for example.

 

[Arhowk]

Well, ive tried it and it doesnt work. I think the problem is the effect Set is a unit and adds it to the pool you were talking about and i was using a dummy unit for the fire so it sets the dummy unit and the others arnt added onto the pool. any ideas i cant find anything. even setting damage dealt to 1 causes the hellion to do 40-60 damage

 

[Dr Super Good]

Make sure the linkage is correct, you might be refering to orignal hellion stuff.

 

[Arhowk]

I did. it links directly to the new one and randomly does 40-50 damage...........

heres the map if u wantsa look at it i have no fin clue

 

[Dr Super Good]

I am at a loss as to if this is solvable. I do not fully understand how effects work and tried multiple parameters with no luck.

Smash your keyboard and blame Koreans.

That's what I do.

 

[Arhowk]

Wow..

this is the only option i have also -.- all other options ive tried hurt allies

edit : this is quite odd, it seems i fixed the problem by removing the unit type of Light from the test aberration.. the glitch mite be because i removed the extra damage to light units.
Ill look into it later. for now, +rep.

edit : nvm, the problem wasnt caused by it because i removed the wrong one lol... even doing 1 damage +0 to light, still does 10-11 damage

edit : DSG, are you the only mod of this section besides globals? lol
