summon ghouls bug

[Ghoulord]

i am using the 'feral spirit' spell as a basis for my own summoning ability 'summon ghouls'. it works fine, but for one tiny bug. When the caster activates the abiltity, it works as it should, but instead, it spawns some ghouls for the Red player. The ghouls were newly that were summoned die, and another set spawns for the caster. i would kinda like to know why this problem happens so i can correct it. it's getting anonoying now, as i have tried many times to fix it, to no success. :banghead:

are there any triggers involved with this?

 

[Sefiraat]

If this is a trigger, there could be a simple error
e.g Create unit Ghoul for player 1 (red)
not
Create unit Ghoul for Owner of Unit (Unit casting ability)

or whatever your trigger requires, I cant see what you said happening unless this is a trigger based ability.

Try some other summoning spell, like "Summon Water Elemental".

 

[Ghoulord]

it's not trigger based, just it's the feral spirit spell with different units summoned and number of units. i'll try using summon water elemental.

 

[advanture]

Yes, I agree try basing the custom ability upon summon water elemental

Well theres difference- Water elemental can summon more than 1 at a time, while feral spirit can only summon 1 group, and when summoned another the first disappear.

thx for help. got biug fixed, and have over come the small army of ghouls summoned by water elemental by having a longer cooldown than duration.
