I duplicated the spine crawler to create a tower for a TD map as I did with a few other models for towers. This one is unique of course due to it's attack art. Each time the towers are upgraded, they get increased in size (typical TD mechanic). I had to do it through an event that increases the scale on morph finish as just changing the scale of the next tower didn't work.
Anyways. It all works fine for the spine crawler tower except the attacks do nothing. The tentacle changes direction as it's supposed to and seems to move ever so slightly, but the actual tentacle launch and return never appears in game. I don't get the placeholder associated with not having a model set up as I copied the model from my other tower and assigned it to the next tower's weapon as you have to do. I just can't figure out why nothing appears to happen in game art wise.
Still not getting any actual attack art action. It moves a little as if it's going to, and I believe it does the damage, just doesn't launch the tentacle out and bring it back..
Could really use the guidance of someone who knows more then I do about the data editor.

@Phox13: Go
Did you double check to see if you duplicated the effects or they are present?
@wowacesucksmassivekok: Go
The effects are duplicated. No real adjustments other then the damage amount.
