Ability targeting problems

I've been trying to make a copy of the ability possession to work on flying mechanical units, unfortunatly I cannot for the life of me get it to work. While targeting mechanical units with it works just fine, I can not get it to work on any air units (organic or mechanical). Checking "Air" for target types doesnt seem to be working, nor has anything else I've tried. Can anyone help with this?

I'm sure someone in the map dev forums will be able to help you.

Unfortunately, I'm not so sure. I believe Possession may be one of the spells that is just hardcoded not to work with air targets, althought I'm sure I don't know why.

As an alternative, you could modify Charm to do what you want, and make a trigger to kill and remove the casting unit when it's finished Charm-ing. That would effectively be the same thing.

Alright I'll try that. Thanks for the help, and for moving the topic to the right place.
