I know there is no trigger in WE that increase the attack range of an unit. But i know you can do it with WEU..

But is there any Spell/Ability/Buff/Effect that increase the attack range?
For long time ago i mean, that Trueshot Aura increase the attack range. but it dosent now.

Can't you just trigger the desired effect into the spell?

eg. So and so begins casting an ability
Apply Upgrade which increases attack range
ability ends
remove upgrade that increases attack range.

Ok, I have an idea about deactivation. Why not make three levels? Level 1 does nothing, level 2 is level 1 and level 3 is level 2. And now, when you want to deactivate, just set it to level 1. Easy enough?

~Daelin

How do you do that?
I use the upgrade "Long Rifel" but i cant set Level 1 = 0 Bonus Range
Level 2 = 0 Bonus Range
Level 3 = 500 Bonus Range

You can only set the Bonus Range per level.[/code]

The problem is, you cant decrease the level of an upgrade.
