hey every one

I have alot of AURA type spells that effect multy targets and the problem im having is:

When ever my hero cast his FIRE aura , i have actors linked to the behaviour to activate a FIRE model on the effected unit . but its only showing up on the caster unit .

other untis are effected by the aura but they dont seem to HAVE the actual behaviour on them meaning when they are effected they dont get the fire model i added to the behaviour. any reasonf or this?

a perfect example for this is the Scince vessel Irradicate . it effect nearby units but doesnt display the Behaviour on the effected units just the target unit .

any ideas? id like to have my auras look alot cooler with actors but this is seriously stoping me :P

So, the aura actually works? But the fire model does not show up on all the effected units?

If your aura is search -> apply buff, aura, then you should just create an actor for the fire model, and use the event Behavior.YourBehavior.On Create Behavior.YourBehavior.Off Destroy

If you are creating an aura that resembles the Psi Disrupter's slow effect then your actor should be like this. (attachment)

If it still does not show, then you should try and add a number to the field Art - Auto Scale Factor like 1 or 2, in the actor tab. That made one of my models appear, but isn't always needed.

So, what you're saying is you have something like this:

Caster Aura (Positive - on Caster)

• Behavior: The aura which has a periodic effect
• Effects: Search Area -> Damage and/or Apply Behavior (if you want the target to burn or you just want a persisting GFX)
• Model: GFX that displays this unit is emitting the aura
• Actor: Created when [Behavior.FireAura.On]

Impact Effect (Negative - on nearby enemies)

• Behavior: Only needed if you want the fire impact spell to do something persisting on the target(s)
• Model: GFX that shows a fire blast or continuous burning flame
• Actor: Either: [Effect.FireAuraImpact.Start] + OneShotGFX (for the fire blast model) | Or: [Behavior.FireAuraImpact.On] + PersistingGFX (for the burning model)

You should more or less have all of the above. Otherwise that might be your problem.

Hope you figure it out :)

the aura works

I have apply behaviour effect with a search effect , but its like the untis gets hurt by the fire aura ( DOT ) but when i click ont he enemy unit he doesnt have a Behaviour on him , hes just taking damage . im orety sure he hadd the behaviour on him befor . cause my casting unit has the behaviour apear on him.

i have the actor set exacly how you said , its working on my CASTING UNIT , just not the targets.

Strange. Well, check everything one by one:

• Does the Behavior appear on the units (the icon, not the GFX). Is it 'Hidden'? (You said it doesn't)
• Does the search effect link to the Apply Behavior effect. Perhaps it points to the Damage effect, which should be part of the Behavior?
• Redo the Actor for the debuff Behavior - takes 15 seconds
