Zero Damage

[Agemo]

i've given a tower the ability of Incinerate (firelord's ability), as i was hoping for after the unit is killed, it causes an explosion damaging nearby enemy units. however, the tower itself has damage but can't inflict those damage. basically the effect of incinerate is there, but the tower just isn't doing any damage.

all i've change from it was set Hero ability false, and change it to a single level.

Agemo, if a tower is equipped with the "Incinerate (Arrow)" ability, it will still do the extra damage as well as effects and buffs.

I think the reason the extra damage is very hard to see is because it is constantly on level 1, which is little bonus damage.

I'd recommend increasing the extra damagein the Object Editor.



P.S: I've included an examplary map to prove that it works. It isn't necessary to view it, but it helps understand.
(I changed the extra damage modifier to 900 and the tower's initial damge to 2-3 to emphasize.)

I did a little test and here are the results. If your tower uses a splash or artillery attack, the spell won't work and no buff will be given to the unit but the missile will be changed. If the tower uses a single-target attack, the spell changed as you said works perfectly. A little note: I used Incinerate ability, not Incinerate(arrow).

Incinerate is a very buggy ability Blizzs didnt work on it much while releasing TFT
its the only orb ability that disables poison attack for example
I heard that if you change fields on it like buff etc it wont work (I guess changing AoE would be fine)

(off topic) About the buff thing, i noticed that Earthquake and probably other ults force their own buffs aswell.

yes, i was referring to Incinerate Ability, not the Arrow. well, the tower i'm using are bass for this ability is basically a guard tower. All i've changed is the model file to the 'Advance flame tower' (for obvious reasons) and its Projectile Art.

For test purposes i even set the base damage of the tower to 10000, but instead no damage is dealt, and i still have no idea why.

are you saving the map? placing the right unit into the editor?

making sure your map isnt saving in a different folder?

 

[Agemo]

well, considering i am opening the map and constantly saving before testing and the fact that its the only map in the folder, i'm pretty sure thats it.
