Expire Progress?

Quick question: for some reason my spawned unit is not showing an expiration bar like it should? I haven't used expiration timers in a long time but I seem to remember them showing the countdown with the blue bar?

Expand JASS:

'BUan' is the animate dead buff, but like I said it just doesn't display the countdown.<it still expires normally> Any ideas?

Thanks.

I don't think units who are revived using "Animate Dead" have the countdown. Try using a different buff.

AGHH! The buff was fine; buidlings don't show expiration timers! =o. Weird.

Damn; guess that blows that idea away. Well at any rate; any idea how I change the text it shows while expiring?

Change the name (or description-normal) of the buff?

If I make a custom buff it just puts that annoying "Expiration Timer" message on it. No matter what it's based on.

You can only have it say a set number of things, and it's based upon what you base the buff off of. Water Elemental, Timed Life, Feral Spirit, Summon Treant, etc..

Don't you think its pretty important information whether or not the unit is a building?
