Bouncing Attack

[Coolio]

how do i add a bouncing attack to a spirit tower? i added moon glaive ability but it doesn't work. changed attack to Missile (Bounce), still doesn't work...

The only way i have done this is by actually basing my unit off a huntress and just setting movespeed to 0 and changed model.

i had that in mind but i thought there is another way.
thanks for quick answer :thup:

Try coyping all the attack stats from the Huntress including maximum number of targets, area of effect and so on.

Just know that the Moon Glaive ability isn't an ability but a real "dummy" that's only useful for a tooltip.

You can give any unit bouncing attack. Make sure the attack type is missile-bounce. Also make sure there is an AoE for the attack (usually about 200 is good for a bounce). This is set in 'Full Damage Area of effect". You will also need to set the units that are able to be hit by bouncing attacks.

So, basically, you are just probably forgetting to fill in a few fields. It should work just fine.

Try and post a screenshot of the attack stats and we'll be able to tell you if you did it flawlessely (and if it's an issue with the editor itself).

Most of the time people have miswritten just a single field.

k i got it, it was because of Combat - Attack 1 - Area of Effect Targets

it didn't had enemy checked...
but still, i had Targets Allowed set as huntress but not area of effect, thought its only for splash damage..

you're right, it was because of a single field

also make sure there is an aoe for the attack - this is set in 'full damage area of effect".

just set attack type to bounce and then use upgrades to make attack bounces..

also remember, you NEED requirements on that unit (the upgrade)
