Spell Emergency

EDIT: the new patch sucks for custom games....i have to fix a lot of stuff... thanks blizzard




Does anyone have any idea why a spell would stop working between versions of the game? I have a spell where the Sorceress Hero transforms into an owl. When in Owl Form, she is unable to transform back into a sorceress, and it doesn't make sense. I've updated the game 16 times, and it wasn't until this 16th time updating the map that the bug appeared. I didn't change anything, and I'm very confused. Any Ideas?

Whats ur base spell? Is it triggered? Did you change anything or did the patch reset anything you didint check?

FYI if this happened to u


I made a hero that transforms into an owl for escape purposes, so when he morphed i wrote a trigger

Unit beigns casting a spell

[Casting Unit] is of type Owl

Order [Casting Unit] to Stop

This Trigger only stopped abilities with Targets like rain of fire and frost bolt, but allowed Immolation and Owl Form to work because they were instant spells. Due to the new patch, Owl Form now has a target (the ground) and therefore doesn't work like it did.

HOWEVER, i found a gameplay constant that says something to the effect of "Morphed units have same spells" or something, and by setting that, my problem was solved.. My trees dont grow back anymore either. X( Hope this helps everyone..

Hmm... I'll have to look a little bit upon the WE since it seem to have a lot of improvements which would somehow be... buggy for those who don't know them.

one for example is that moving a unit as they start the effect of a spell initiates the response and uses up mana, but dopesn't fire the cooldown. Something which is very wrong at this point.
