Black Arrow Bug. D:

So, seen this mentioned a few times in my search--but never answered (for this specific problem). I made a clone of a Black Arrow spell, different units, 10 levels, etc.. it works fine, EXCEPT, the Black Arrow buff does not apply, nor does the creature die and turn into a minion. I'm sure all my abilities and buffs are hooked up correctly, but..

Any ideas?

Are you attacking heroes with it? Black Arrow won't affect heroes.

Do you have any other orb or arrow abilities on the unit?

is the unit, by any chance, magic immune? what did you set as the duration?

I think the attacking unit has to have attack type of missile or something.

Whoa, lotsa questions. Okay:

1) No, not attacking heroes.
2) No, no other orb or arrow abilities.
3) Not magic immune. 2 second duration.
4) It DOES have a missile attack.

ANY other abilities on it?

Yeah, Fork Lightning and a passive speed increase ability. Will put Vengeance on it in a bit, haven't yet, though. The black arrow ability still doesn't work, even if I don't learn any of the other abilities.

Are you ordering the unit to attack or attack-move, or is it just acquiring targets that come in range?

Why not think about something simple, er, for example, to what have you set "Buff" in the Object Editor, or, have you set "Unit Spawned Count" to 0...

All three. As well as actually trying to manually shoot..

The buff is correct, and it says to spawn the right amount, also.

Wyvern was right. It was something extremely simple I overlooked.. Now I feel like an idiot. >_>..

The unit's attack type was set to Missile SPLASH on accident. Sorry. <_<
