Phoenix Fire

[mato2]

Does any1 know how i can turn the phoenix fire effect off?
As in when it hits the target, and does dps. I have everything in the abillity set to 0 ( the duration of dps effect and it's dmg, ) and the effect seems to not be linked with the spell in any way, yet when it hit's something ingame it get's the effect.

Could you be a little more specific.

Try setting damage to 0, but duration to 0.01.

I know for some spells, like Stormbolt a duration of 0 would make it last forever.

You could also try using a damage-detection engine to detect when Phoenix Fire strikes a unit. From there, check to see whether or not the damaged unit has the Phoenix Fire buff. If so, remove the buff.

When I want an ability to have an absolute 0 duration, I typically like to make sure the buff is removed immediately, so that it doesn't look as if a buff was added then removed.

ok fixed that, but now there's a different problem, if a unit was shot once by the spell, it can't be targeted again, i have the phoenix fire abillity on a human battleship, but it just uses it once on every enemy in sight and stops >.>
How do i fix this?
