Anyone knows how to let a unit with permanent invisible have a aura buff while it is the aura giver. Meaning: he has the aura spell and permanent invisible.
Because when it always going into permanent invisible the aura is gone.
I Do not want to change in game constant which can give aura to others units even if the giver is in invisible
+rep if helped

im not completely sure what your asking =o and idk if just changing the hex of the unit to have transparency would solve your problem, as other players could see the unit as well, but i dont know of any way you could do that without changing that in the constants :/

I'm not sure what you're asking. It seems like what you want, already happens: I gave a Paladin the Permanent Invisibility ability, and its unmodified Devotion Aura still gave itself the buff, although of course no nearby units got the buff.

But i suppose invisible units bestows aura are if a invisible unit is an aura giver then all units nearby will received the aura and this will show where the invisible unit is at
Or is it the other way round??

I gave my hero permanent invisible and endurance aura but when the hero goes invisible the aura is gone.

Actually, I don't know why you lose your auras. By rights, even when you're invisible, the unit with permanent invisible invisibility should still benefit from his own auras.

I think this is not his problem...

maybe he is trying to say that a unit with AOE aura stops giving when becomes invisible but he stills want the unit to give aura to self.

From what I read, this is his case. His unit, Unit A has the aura and the permanent invisibility. Unit A is unable to receive the aura that Unit A has himself, which shouldn't be the case. From what I remember, permanent invisible units still can have aura effects, as long as the aura origin the the unit itself.

Nvm i found the problem but i got a bug
i put the aura tiptool as none and add a trigger
Trigger:
  • Night Abilities
    • Events
      • Time - Every 0.50 seconds of game time
    • Conditions
    • Actions
      • If (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions)
        • If - Conditions
          • (In-game time of day) Less than 6.00
          • (In-game time of day) Greater than 18.00
        • Then - Actions
          • Player Group - Pick every player in All_Players and do (Actions)
            • Loop - Actions
              • Player - Enable WereTransformation for (Picked player)
              • Player - Enable Moonlight Fade for (Picked player)
        • Else - Actions
          • Player Group - Pick every player in All_Players and do (Actions)
            • Loop - Actions
              • Player - Disable WereTransformation for (Picked player)
              • Player - Disable Moonlight Fade for (Picked player)

so that the effects only works at night.
And basically Moonlight Fade is permanent invisible and WereTransformation is aura.
When i disable this trigger, the aura appears. And the icon looks green which is unrepresentable.
But when this trigger is on the aura will disappear upon invisible. And the icon is not seenable at all.
Anyone know why?

as far as i see it the condition will always return false no matter what time you have.
what you have right now is asking whether the time is less then 6am AND after 18pm at once which can never be true.

Is it a transformation spell? There's currently a bug with auras that make them unable to affect units under a transformation if the transformed unit is the bestower. It has nothing to do with Permant Invisibility.

You can test this bug by adding an aura to a Demon Hunter's alternative form and then transforming him. He will not receive the aura, but it appear shortly on him before fading the moment he reverts back to his original form. As you may well notice, no units in the game actually has an aura and a transformation ability at the same time.

        • If - Conditions
          • (In-game time of day) Greather than 6.00
          • (In-game time of day) Less than 18.00
        • Then - Actions
          • Player Group - Pick every player in All_Players and do (Actions)

no the clock is not a cycle. the time of day is a number and it goes from 0.00 to 24.00 and then it repeats.
if you put an "or" it will work perfectly fine.

lets imagine the time is 5am

is it less then 6am? yes
is it greater then 6pm? no
does the condition return true? yes => its night

now the time is 8am

is it less then 6am? no
is it greater then 6pm? no
does the condition return true? no => its day

now lets check your way of doing it.

time is again 5am

is it less then 6am? yes
is it greater then 6pm as well? no
what do we get? false => night

time is 8am

is it less then 6am? no
is it greater then 6pm? no
what do we get? false => night

it will just always return false because there is not way the time can be less then 6am and greater then 6pm at once...
