I want to create an aura that decreses those units around the caster.So how should I change the setting of a base aura ability? For example, I need the Brilliance Aura to reduce all player's nearby units' mana regeneration, and the caster is a neutral passive unit. What should I do? Thanks!:) |

It's pretty easy. When you edit the auras just hold shift and double click to enter negative numbers. |

That and change the targetting. Though depending on your world edit settings you may not need to hold shift. |

True. You can change the setting "Allow negative real valves in the Object Editor" in Preferences". Also I think some fields in the object editor still need to use shift. Not sure though. |

Yes, there are a few that still need the shift key, I think brilliance aura is one of them. |

Uh, you forgot that you can exceed the number limits of numbers by using the shift + enter thing as well, becuase most fields that deal with numbers do have limits. |

Ah, I'm sorry that I didn't describe it clear enough. In fact, I know How to set a negative number. The true problem is that i don't know how to set the Target. I've tried the combination of "Air, Ground, Invunluable, Vunluabe", But it didn't work. So, How should I set the Target field? Thanks! |

basic setting, debris, ward, air, ground, i think there is one or two more, but my FUCKING drives wont open, one does, but it's infested with poltergeists or something... so i opens and closes opens and close, constantly inturupting my work and starting auto run wheneve a disc is in it.... |

That once happened to my old computer, it would be in sleep mode and it would still pop its drive open and close it in the middle of the night or whenever it felt like it. About the targetting field, what aura are you using and in what way? |

I want it to be an effect of particular weather: When it's raining units in the aura will have their mana regeneration decreased; When it's snowing their movement speed will be reduced, and so on. So I make several aura for each of these weathers and intending to dynamatically add them to a neatual unit to start the effect. So how to set the target to make it work? Thanks! |

So you're simulating a weather effect on all movable units? Try Vulnerable, Invulnerable, Neutral, Ground, Air |

ok, I'll Try. Thank you! |

I know where the problem lays: the Ability Ghost! I add it to the aura caster to prevent players from seeing it. But this ability will stop the effect of the aura. When I remove it, everything is ok. Thank you all!!!!!! |
