Video recorder is a bit bugged but replicating those settings will allow you to see a fully functional AoE flame spell
Wait, I found out the problem! One thing all of them have in common is that they're facing attacks. And upon further testing, I found out for some reason, they only work when aimed downwards (the default direction) and not any other direction. This is a graphic showing what I mean.
It seems that the problem is with facing attacks. They only work when aimed downwards, but when aimed up, left, or right they don't work.
when you say next turn do you mean next battler or when the turn order window resets?
The reserve turns take into account the number of times a battler can act. Eg: in the demo project, trying using willpower with Michelle. You'll notice that instead of acting twice, Michelle acts only once and applies the buff. For Reid, they'll need to wait an entire turn order cycle
I mean when the turn order window resets. But what I don't get is why the Sunbeam skill, which directly copies a pattern from the demo and doesn't have any reserve turns set, only works when facing downwards, and even less why you can't fix it. Should I just hand over the project itself for an investigation?
