Help! I am killing myself...

[hidconsp]

Hi everyone,

I'm currently modding a spell that has similar effect as fire storm.

So I decided to first make a copy of a fire storm and start modifying bit by bit.

What I found is that the spell cannot be modified, at all.

 

So here is what's in creation kit:

Spell : fireStorm

Magic Effect : fireDamageFFSelfArea100 / fireDamageFFSelfArea65 / fireDamageFFSelfArea25 (I'll skip the perk effect)

 

I duplicated the spell to make fireStormDuplicate, and it worked just fine.

Originally the fireDamageFFSelfArea100 has magnitude 100, and I wanted to make it a bit stronger so I changed the magnitude to 120.

Then, I began to damage myself, not the enemy!

I've looked through everything in creation kit that might have something to do with the spell - conditions, questalias, etc

But I can't find out why this is happening. Does anyone have idea?

 

Thanks in advance, by the way.

Hello,

 

Please open your creation kit and load your .esp. Then, switch to spell in your left window category and find the spell firestorm.

 

Open the firestorm spell, please check the " Area " in right box. If area is 0, then this spell will kill yourself !

 

Original version of this spell area is 100, 65, 25, 100, respectively from top to bottom.

 

Excuse my English.
