Healing Aura doesn't always work...

So, I have two heroes. I gave a building the Life aura used by Fountains of Health. However, only one of them restores health, even if both are damaged! I've checked both heroes, and any stats that I would think would affect that are the same between the two.

Has anyone else experience this, and if so, do you have any cures?

PS: Both heroes are based off of the Archmage (base unit)

Have you tried using the default Fountain of Health so you know if the problem is rather the units or the building?

Yes. It did the same thing.

I tried changing the Repair Time/Cost, since some were 0 and others were the default... no idea if it will work though (have to test).

Weird, I just made a test map with 2 custom but different Archmage heroes, made them get damaged by Orc Watch Towers, and they both healed properly from a Barracks with the Life Regeneration Aura ability. Are you sure your's don't have any spells that interfere with this?

I can't image what skills would do that. Neither of them have any sort of auras, let alone life regeneration modifiers.

Check the unit classes, if one of the Archmages has the "Ancient" or "Mechanical" tag it won't work.

If it still doesn't work, delete the hero and remake it.

weird, i cant reproduce.

Have you changed ANY feilds in the healing aura or in the hero other then cosmetic and stuff like that?

They don't.

It didn't work with a good ol' Fountain of Health. And I don't know what fields in a hero would cause this.

The only fields that cause it are the target types, Ancient, Mechanical, Suicidal ect.

What exactly did you customize for the heroes/units with Life Aura?

It's just a building the the aura, and if the generic, unmodified Fountain of Health doesn't work, then it's the heroes. I have to test the changes I've made, but if worst comes to worst I can just do periodic healing.
