I've looked carefully at every piece of this ability. Ever since the patch (where they disabled it for melee), I have not been able to get Vortex to affect missiles.

im pretty sure it would be in the list of available targets.... or the validator for the effect

@SouLCarveRR: Go

Yes, I would think so. But I looked at all of them. There is nothing there that would seem to prevent it from hitting missiles. It's set to "allowed" everywhere, and none of the validators appear to have anything to do with missiles.

Its possible they hard coded it.....

@SouLCarveRR: Go

I doubt that. Missiles are units as well.

well its would be on the searcharea effect that the vortex's persistent effect uses that would filter out missile targets

or it would be on the effect that the searcharea effect uses on valid targets possibly as a validator...

Mothership - Vortex Search Area

took 2 seconds for me to find...... Missiles are excluded

@SouLCarveRR: Go

That's strange. It's not excluded in the version I was looking at, but I've been getting messages from people saying the mothership boss in my map. no longer stops missiles. I guess I should test it myself.

Thanks for the help.

well ... I started a new map... and just searched under abilities for vortex... so its all defaults i was looking at.

Ive heard they changed the way the editor handles showing players/ allowing players what data objects are available to being edited, its very possible it messed up some of your data's object links....

if your vortex stuff is modified at all Id suggest just recreating it... and then change what you need

They changed the vortex to not affect missiles in patch 1.2, maybe some kind of conflict with that.
