Incinerate doesn't work!

I just can't make the Firelords Incinerate spell work! I idn't make a custom spell, I'm just using the original, but almost every unit he attacks; only the first hit does the damage. All the other attacks does no damage at all! Not even the original hero damage!

I'm so confused, why does incinerate cancel the Firelords damage?

Incinerate is partially hardcoded. I personally never figured everything out myself, but you can't seem to modify the damages involved.

What is your map? Is it your original map? Is it deprotected? What is it? Cause sometimes, if you deprotect a map, it can cause problems like abbilities not working, or server splits, as well as map failures, so i would suggest making a new map, totally from scratch, if that is your case. Also... dont just export, import the broken abbilites, just totally from scratch.

It's my own map, i didn't deprotect it and i didn't even change any values... just spawned a firelord and added some units to the map and pressed play... to test if it worked that way. I don't get it :(

make a trigger doing it then?
set inci = 1
set dmg = damage dealt
loop
if (~unit is dead ~)
do
loop ended
set dmg[randomnu] = 0
else
Unit - Cause (Triggering unit) to damage (picked unit), dealing (dmg+inci) damage of attack type <> and damage type <>
set inci = (inci+1)

loop it for every time he attacks, maybe make it an activate abillity? so that u got controlled attack speed and u know when its activated

an idea, i whud have tried make it in this kind of way... maybe u understnad what i mean? :) gl

I don't like having trigger based spells in my maps, too much. I'll just think of another hero to add :) Check out my map soon in the member projects section (Still very WIP though)

is there some other orb effect messing with you? does it work if you manually cast is as opposed to leaving it on autocast?

Did you change the incinerate buff? some buffs are used in the hard coded triggers blizzard has wrote... Example is Healing Spray, if you change the buff it will not work... This is because a lot of abilities check to see for a specific buff and the buff is what acutally saves the data or lets it be applied.

You will be able to have explosion damage by changing the buff, but i believe you will not be able to accomplish damage adding per attack.

I didn't change the buff.

The explosion works fine, but the Firelord does no damage at all when he has learned Incinerate!

Do you have negative values or something?

For your values under DataA1 what is it? (Bonus Damage)

And are you using this as a item, hero, or regular unit ability?

Also did you change your targets allowed?

I didn't change anything at all! It's the original Ignite with the original buff on the original Firelord in a custom map.

i've tried this on a non-hero unit, editing the properties of the original Anic (incinerate).

It doesn't work until the unit casts unholy frenzy on himself (VERY ODD). Is this buff related ? self buff or target buff ?

    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
