I want to add the Reaper D-8 charge ability to a building.
In order to do this I've duplicated the ability and taken the abilities requirement(you need to have researched the ability in the campaign menu) so that it would work for the building. However when I try casting the ability it does not spawn the reaper bombs, nor does the ability actually trigger.
I also gave this ability to another unit and when i cast it the ability worked fine.
Is there anyone who has encountered this problem before and could help me?
Units have a facing. Give a marine a 10 arc ability, and the marine will turn to face the unit before using the ability. Give a building a 10 arc ability, and nothing happens. Why? Because buildings don't turn.
if 360 arc doesn't work, give it 0 arc(no arc/no facing specific).'
Here's a map file from a while back. With a structure that uses some ability. I don't remember which and which.

Set the Arc on the ability to 360. [Solved]
What does the arc have to do with it?

This forum is awesome...so educational ! :) I didn't need what the OP needed, but it might come in handy one day.
I presume you have added the ability to the abilities menu and increased the range of casting so that it is longer than the radius of the building?

nope. I just straight up added it. It was a test on how to get a targeted ability to be cast from a building.
