It use to work fine, then I think after the patch it stopped working, kinda weird =/. I tried cleaning it up a bit and changing the way it designated the level of the ability to just one looped action (this is pasted prior to that though, since I think I messed it up more then), but it still didn't work. Any ideas?

Ummm youre creating dummies at Temp_point, which is set to Center of Playable Map area.
Unless your invisibility spell has infinite range, it shouldnt work unless youre at the middle of the map.

Yes, it has 999999 range, and I tried before that making it at point of the unit. Didn't make a difference.

It's that you set 3 times the tempPoint, tempGroup.
An ability cannot be level 1, 2, 3 at the same time!
Just do it at the start and you should be okay with this.

This should work for any number of levels.
Notice that both DestroyGroup and RemoveLocation must be outside the Unit Group loop. This was the problem.

    Looks like Google fixed whatever mistake that made the recipes on the site go crazy and we are no longer trending towards a recipe site lol - I don't care though because it motivated me to spend alot of time on the site improving it and at least now the content people are looking at is not stupid and embarrassing like it was when I first got back into this like 5 years ago.
  • The Helper The Helper:
    Plus - I have a pretty bad ass recipe collection now! That section of the site is 10 thousand times better than it was before

    They also were digging threw old shit at the sheriff's office and I tried to get them to give me the old electronic stuff, but they said no. They can't give it to people because they might use it to impersonate a cop or break into their network or some shit? idk but it was a shame to see them take a whole bunch of radios and shit to get shredded and landfilled
