Some questions on Abilities

[Drunken_Jackal]

Im trying to make a system for my map, and I have a question and one problem.

First, is it possible to have a spellbook inside a spellbook?

Last, I created an ability based of storm bolt which has max range, 0.01 duration and no mana cost. All other stuff such as missile, damage and buff are 0. When I try to cast it, I cant seem to select a unit target. Tried using other abilities like Channel and Sleep as base, but still same outcomes. So how can this be fixed?

Also, might update this main post if I have more questions.

Thanks.

its possible, and i used it too, work well until dont got same base order id the 2 spellbook or the spellbooks dont got same base order abilityes(example dont put to 1st 1 storm bolt what deal 500 dmg and to 2nd spellbook another what do 1000dmg because both storm bolt got same base order id and it cause bug, so if u use spellbook then dont use same base spells in book )

with another question i have no ideea because with me never happened and i use alot unit target channel based ability but allways can select the target if target allowed field setted well and target type was setted to unit in ocject editor - my channel based ability

Be sure that your spellbook got locked position. If it change it spells may be unable to cast.

Well I tried what you said. Unfortunately, my map starts to crash

the spellbook in spellbook? maybe upload the map

 

[MajorKaza]

I mean if you have 2 skills on same positions, 1st may "move" as you learn 2nd. That may couse bugs as well as moveing spellbook in inventory.

@MajorKaza

Ahh. I dont place abilities with same positions.

lol DDDDD

ok u use 2 spell book but u do this

A Spellbook / B spellbook

u put B inside the A, and A inside the B

overall it is a endless loop ....

it is ok if u use spellbook in spellbook but dont put to a child spellbook his parent spellbook...

so change the spell list in footman spellbook or change as u want just dont make loops

"dont put to a child spellbook his parent spellbook..."
"u put B inside the A, and A inside the B"

So what do you mean with "parent"? I think that when I put B into A, A becomes parent, doesn't it?

y, but if inside the A, you put B and inside the B also you A then it is a endless loop or just something what imposible because parent spellbook will be child of the parent child

Its weird. Normaly that idea should work. :/

where? its exactly when u see the monitor with webcam and in monitor u acctually see what u record with webcam, so result u see ur monitor unlimited time, pic inside the pic

its work when u put B to spellbook A, so then u can put anything to B exclude A&B, and u can put anything to A exclude A

 

[Drunken_Jackal]

Hmm...

I dont recall placing a in b and vice versa. Maybe justan error. Thanks though

example if in spellbook a have 5 ability (lets say b,c,d,e,f) and u delete 1 and create another then the new ability is on spellbook instead the deleted one, maybe this happened

 

[Drunken_Jackal]

No, I didnt do anything like that. Still cant find why the map crashes.
