Never heard of anything like this.. I'm guessing there is some triggering bug or map corruption.

haha i played lots of games but nth like this happen too,but it happens on my map -.-
maybe i will bump this thread every 24hrs, will wait for a professional techician to help me...

 

[cleeezzz]

something like that would only happen from a faulty trigger. (i assume) post any triggers related to upgrading?

i do not have any triggers related to Tower A and Tower B but i have triggers to transform the tower into an item(and it is working well)... does other triggers cause this probm?

that triggers seem wierd...

first you create an item on the location of the tower. and as soon as a hero picks up that item, you remove it and recreate it, why not force the hero to drop it?

Hero - Drop (Item being manipulated) from (Triggering unit)

you also might wanna change
