Hey guys,

I've problem with beams. I made an ability that grants a certain behavior to a group of allied units in range. Everything works fine, but it the beam is only shown once. Instead of a beam coming from the caster to all targeted units, only the last that entered his range seems to get linked by the beam, although all units get the behavior. So again: It's just the visual effect that doesn't work!

This is the actor I'm using:
Actor Type: Beam (Simple)
Based On: Beam Simple Animation Style One Shot

Events:
Effect.spell.Start
. At Target
. Create
ActorCreation
. Set TintColor
ActorCreation
. AnimPlay Beam, etc
AnimDone
. AnimName Beam
. Destroy

Hosting: Host: Scope Target Subject: _Selectable
Hosting Host Impact: Scope Target, Subject: _Selectable
+siteops
Hosting Host Launch: Scope Caster, Subject: _Selectable
+siteops

I've no clue why it doesn't work. Do I need to create a persistant searching for a single target instead?

Thanks for you help in advance!

@AegisPrime2011: Go

"Based On: Beam Simple Animation Style One Shot" If I had to take a guess, this would be why.

on what should I base it instead? Bea Simple Animation Style Continous is even worse, isn't it?

I tried using the impact and it actually works for exactly two times the effect is spawned by the persistant. (????) After that, only at the last unit that entered the searched area the effect is shown.
This is totally confusing and I've no idea what the reasons might be. Could it be a problem with the actor not being destroyed properly?

thanks for the answers!
