spells not working
hi all. after receiving some input here regarding modding, i made some moddings in a compaign (changing hero's skills and changing maximum experience level). i started the first compaign again (knight), but something was wrong. the mods i made work, but few other things not:
1) when casting the divine guidance spell by my hero, it has only imediate one-time affect, not a continues one (when right-clicking the casted creatue i see no divine guidence spell affecting it)
2) when casting the retaliation strike spell by my hero, i did see that the creature cased was affected by the spell by right-clicking this creatue, but there was no affect. the casted creature was being attacked again and again, but the hero didn't retaliate against the attacker (and the spell was still in affect cus the hero didn't have another turn yet). i even tested it in a saved game i played before i made any mod, but the spell didn't work there either.
can someone help me findout what went wrong ? how do the mods i made have anything to do with those spells ?

I'm not a modder myself but I think I can awnser your first question.
Divine Guidance doesn't have a continuous effect. It has an effect which only applies once to increase the creatures initiative. It's more like a "Give away your heros turn to let the affected creature act again". If it did have a continuous effect, I think it'd be quite inbalanced if you ask me.
I'm not sure about the solution to your second problem but I could be that you've overwritten something which was esential for the retaltiation ability to work. I'd say re-installing would be your best bet to solve it. Still I wouldn't take my advice over other real modders , they'll likely have more experience with these kind of issues.

thank you. i thought the devine spell have to be a continues one like the benediction spell. but if thats it then one problem is solved.
re-installation won't help much, cus afterwards i'll do the same mods, unless i'll know i'm doing something wrong. as far as i can think of it, i had never tauched any thing not under the title 'skill' or 'HeroMaxLevel'. anyone has any idea ?

About Retaliation Strike, I suggest you remove your mod to test the original game. See how it works.
I can't tell much without seeing your mod itself. If you give me a link to it, I'll have a look.

Just to make sure everything is clear Retaliation strike only works on melee attackers. It will not work on ranged attackers or spells cast by enemies. If you already know this then something is wrong.
