I have a problem with multiple artifacts.
Here it is:
I have made a unit with the Kyrilla collection (from Chimera and Frenzy).
Its primary attack is a Fetch's primary lightning attack. She only has 10 of these so you have to collect more artifacts.
I have made a crystal which should give her a Warlock's Fireball. It is a special attack. I press T and nothing happens as if she has no special attack.
Can anyone explain my problem?
Note: The crystal is like the one used to free The Deceiver on A Murder of Crows and can be carried ONLY be her.

Correction:
I can tell Kyrilla to attack someone/something on the terrain.
BUT, the place where she prepares to attack, she runs backward a bit, then forward a bit, then backward a bit again and so on.
Sorry but I can't get any screenshots because I have no website!

Another Correction:
It works (and it's about time too), however, Kyrilla dissapears and THEN blows the enemies to bits.

I have a problem with fear 1.5.2 because it wont let me duplicate tags or make new ones. Some tags I can't even open at all. Also, sometimes when I put certain units I extracted from another plugin into a map I am working on the game crashes because it can't read certain tags for that monster. However I know for a fact that those tags are in the correct folders and are all there.

some links between tags may be missing. A very good example of this which happens quite frequently on me is that in the "unit" tag, it is linked to a monster, but somehow the collection reference isnt there. Could also be a missing sequence in the monster, missing object, wrong attack sequence etc. Something is missing from your units and you have to find what it is :)

Zak, 3 things:

1) You should register because someone could pose as you because Guests can call themselves whatever they want.

2) If you're having problems with Fear (like tags that refuse to load) you should get the latest build. This is if you use OS X. Look in Mapmaking Support for "New Stuff - Read this."

3) Like Zeph said, you should try to link up the Monster with the Unit, Object with the Monster etc...
If you still have problems, try to re-download the files (like if the Collection doesn't show up.) Or it might also be that the collection is missing a few things or some files might be corrupt. Try this after you've got the latest version of Fear.

Hope this helps!
