I've created an effect-target ability which causes a Set effect, containing a Teleport and a Create Persistent effect. However when i try to cast it my unit just walks to the target location. The ability also has a 1.5 second casting time which seems to also be ignored. Can anybody help me with this?
Not sure what to tell you about your specific ability from those details. However, I highly recommend looking at the existing teleport abilities, duplicating the one that most looks like what you want, and editing it to fit your needs. Great data examples are stalkers, Zeratul, and Kerrigan. All 3 have teleport type abilities.
I tried copying exactly from blink (I copied blink, changing nothing except for switching the teleport effect out for a set effect with the create persistent/teleport) and then the ability wouldn't cast at all- nothing happened when i press the button (I checked that everything was linked up correctly in the command card).
EDIT: Solved! I had lowered the range under my blink like ability's stats to the same range as my blink effect's teleport range- for some reason this was causing the ability to bug really badly. I set it back to 500 and it's working fine now.
Nevermind, it's not solved -.-. I had given my unit the normal blink as well to compare them in game, and when i set the range back to 500 clicking the button for my ability was casting blink instead. it's still not working.
EDIT AGAIN: I recreated the ability from scratch a second time, and now it's working as intended. I have no idea what was causing it :l
