Question about a certain buff and ability

I've created an ability based on charm and a buff based on sleep and I've added the buff to the charm spell via: Stats - buffs in the object editor, but the buff never shows up on the target when I cast it. It changes to my control, but the buff is not applied. Anyone know what's going on?

I'm not entirely sure how Charm's specific buff works, but I'm definitely sure adding another ability's buff type to another ability of a different type can make it go wonky. Try adding a buff based off of Charm, and if it doesn't work, I guess you'll have to use a custom buff/another ability to get this working.

Oh, ehhhh, I checked the default buff that comes with charm and I didn't see a buff listed (the area of Stats - buff was empty for the default charm ability).

edit: I did a quick search for a buff that might belong to charm and aside from possession, (that buff didn't work with the charm-like spell either), I couldn't really find anything. x_x

Apparently there's no buff associated with Charm then :/. You could either add a dummy buff by a dummy ability through a dummy caster detected by triggers after your spell is cast, or base Charm off another spell with a buff and do the player-change actions through the trigger.

Alright i'll keep messing around with this world editor, thanks a bunch for the info anopob.

I'd add rep points for the info, but I can't, because I think you're the last person I gave +rep to .
