holyadvocate	im having trouble.. i did the basic object editor add requirements, and looked at other spells that needed requirements, but it looks like this is another stupid bug, if any of you know the solution to my problem, please enlighten me!

Gorman	did u check the "check techtree requirements" box? (i think his probelm is he wants to add requrements to the "Charge gold and lumber" skills (these will be used as bases for other skills) but it isnt working, and he wants to know why.)

Anitarf	There are many abilities that techtree requirements don't work with (personaly, I can confirm this for damage and armour bonus item abilities), it seems Charge gold and lumber is one of them.

If your trying to make it cost lumber/gold per cast then u could just use triggers.

Trigger:

Spell Cost

Events

Unit - A unit Begins casting an ability

Conditions

(Ability being cast) Equal to Animate Dead

Actions

Player - Set (Owner of (Triggering unit)) Current gold to (((Owner of (Triggering unit)) Current gold) - 250)

or if you want to be more exact..

Trigger:

Spell Cost

Events

Unit - A unit Begins casting an ability

Conditions

(Ability being cast) Equal to Animate Dead

Actions

If (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions)

If - Conditions

((Owner of (Triggering unit)) Current gold) Greater than or equal to 250

Then - Actions

Player - Set (Owner of (Triggering unit)) Current gold to (((Owner of (Triggering unit)) Current gold) - 250)

Else - Actions

Unit - Order (Casting unit) to Stop
