I have made an ability that launches the caster as a missile towards an offset point. The missile is also supposed to collide with unpathable terrain. If it collides, the missile is redirected to another offset point. The weird thing is that it only works once for each unit each time you load the map. I have tried to do it with behaviors and also persistent effects to check if the terrain is unpathable.
I got a feeling this is a problem of the Redirect Missile effect, if you replace that with something else it will always work (for example if you use a Damage effect it will always damage the unit, not only the first time), which means there is no underlying problem in the effect chain but rather the Redirect Missile refuses to fire after the first time.
So I personally don't know how to fix that, maybe someone else already has knowledge about the Redirect Missile effect and whether or not there is a way to fix this.

Here are the maps:

Could you check the maps and see what makes the problem occur?

you know i'd be a lot more inclined to help if the map were uploaded here and attached to your post than it being uploaded offsite.
Still alive and kicking, just busy.
My guide to the trigger editor (still a work in progress)
Sorry, I'm new to this site and didn't think of it.
