Custom Ability Failure to Work

Okay so I made this new custom ability. What the ability is supposed to do is be like barrage except attack land units. However, when I put this new ability on a test unit, it didn't do anything.

I have changed the targets: Enemy, Ground, Hero
I have changed the number of targets: 3
I have changed the cooldown: 5
Mana Cost remains at: 0
The damage is 100
Range is 500

When I put the ability on the test unit and had a hero walk up to the unit, the unit attacked as normal but the ability didn't seem to do anything!

Thanks for any help in advance

Targets allowed is evil. Evil! It makes little to no sense at times. Anyway, I think this thing is targetting Heroes only. Uncheck Hero and see how that works.

The thing is that I walked a hero up to the creature and attacked it. The creature did nothing back. Therefore, this new skill is obviously not affecting heroes.

Oh. I thought you had the ability on the hero and you were walking up to the unit. Nevermind me, then. I don't take time to read things as often as I should.

As far as I know, this skill should also work like a multi-shot skill. Passive skill that attacks multiple ground units in range. Other than this skill occurring every 5 seconds, the unit is still attacking.

EDIT: Based the skill off of Barrage

Hmm...change the targets to air, enemy, ground, neutral. thats the best setting for abilities. If you want to make a multi shot skill, there is alrdy a tutorial around here...

Anyways, to act like a multi shot skill u can do this:
Set the missile art to w/e the creep's normal missile skill is
The range to the creep's missile range
The damage to 0
Cooldown = 0
Number of targets = 3

This is only for the multi shot skill tho. If u dont plan on changing the values perhaps you shud change the missile art...and the targets allowed, of cuz.

    Signatures can be edit in your account profile. As for the old stuffs, I'm thinking it's because Blizzard is now under Microsoft, and because of Microsoft Xbox going the way it is, it's dreadful.

    @tom_mai78101 I must be blind. If I go on my profile I don't see any area to edit the signature; If I go to account details (settings) I don't see any signature area either.

    Crazy how much 3d printing has come in the last few years. Sad that it's not as easily modifiable though
  • Varine Varine:
    I bought an Ender 3 during the pandemic and tinkered with it all the time. Just bought a Sovol, not as easy. I'm trying to make it use a different nozzle because I have a fuck ton of Volcanos, and they use what is basically a modified volcano that is just a smidge longer, and almost every part on this thing needs to be redone to make it work
  • Varine Varine:
    Luckily I have a 3d printer for that, I guess. But it's ridiculous. The regular volcanos are 21mm, these Sovol versions are about 23.5mm
  • Varine Varine:
    So, 2.5mm longer. But the thing that measures the bed is about 1.5mm above the nozzle, so if I swap it with a volcano then I'm 1mm behind it. So cool, new bracket to swap that, but THEN the fan shroud to direct air at the part is ALSO going to be .5mm to low, and so I need to redo that, but by doing that it is a little bit off where it should be blowing and it's throwing it at the heating block instead of the part, and fuck man
  • Varine Varine:
    I didn't realize they designed this entire thing to NOT be modded. I would have just got a fucking Bambu if I knew that, the whole point was I could fuck with this. And no one else makes shit for Sovol so I have to go through them, and they have... interesting pricing models. So I have a new extruder altogether that I'm taking apart and going to just design a whole new one to use my nozzles. Dumb design.
  • Varine Varine:
    Can't just buy a new heatblock, you need to get a whole hotend - so block, heater cartridge, thermistor, heatbreak, and nozzle. And they put this fucking paste in there so I can't take the thermistor or cartridge out with any ease, that's 30 dollars. Or you can get the whole extrudor with the direct driver AND that heatblock for like 50, but you still can't get any of it to come apart
  • Varine Varine:
    Partsbuilt has individual parts I found but they're expensive. I think I can get bits swapped around and make this work with generic shit though
