problem with incinerate

[Dinah]

i made a spell based on incinerate and removed the damage dealt when a unit dies and set:
->the multiplicator to 0.40
->the splash amount and area to 1.00

the spell is given to a unit ingame and the projectile model changes, too but no damage is dealt

 

[Numerion]

and your unit is melee or ranged?

 

[Dinah]

oh i forgot to tell you that:
it ranged (should be no problem cause the firelord is ranged, too)

perhaps this also helps:
the "unit" is actually a tower ...

 

[Numerion]

so you have based on which incinerate? there is melee one and ranged one so?

 

[Need_O2]

Dont change its buff
just change image/icon of the buff

 

[Kingz]

That doesn't mean anything i have an custom inicinerate spell with custom buffs and it still works, maybe you should check what targets are allowed.

 

[Dinah]

fist the spell bases on the hero incinerate but it's not a hero spell anymore

when i tested the game with the standart buff the same problem occurs but i noticed that sometimes the unit gets damage (in about 1 of 10 cases)

the targets are not the problem cause
1. the projectile model changes
2. the unit get the buff (gets inflamed )

 

[Kingz]

Passive or auto cast inicinerate?

 

[Dinah]

passive ... it's the ability the firelord has i guess

 

[Kingz]

Is the unit an structure?
Have you tried auto-cast?
What effect you want to achieve with the spell?

 

[Dinah]

-the casting unit is a structure but that shouldn't be the problem but not the attacked one
-auto-cast is not editable, is it?
-i want the unit to increase the damage with every attack on an enemy
attack - damage
1 - 100%
2 - 140%
3 - 180%
4 - 220%
...

I will try to make an tower with the inicinerate spell and see if it works, if it do i will post it and you see if there what is not same.
Also i think it may be an orb effect? Not sure just saying, will post it tomorow.

If i have grammar mistakes it is because i am foreign.

 

[Dinah]

hmm ok then i'll wait until tomorrow

no problem ... i'm foreign, too

 

[Kingz]

I see your problem now, i created an custom spell and gave it to an tower and it didn't work, curently trying to make it work, also trying to make trigger based inicinerate.

 

[Dinah]

Did you get somewhere, with triggered incinerate?

if not, i can do it on my own ...

 

[Kingz]

I have been trying to make it based on the custom value of the unit, but stopped so you try to make it I am pretty busy during school days.
