You`re right. There is a “fix” for commander spells so creature spells can not be mass …
You could try to make an aimed spell but with really big range "0-16", so it will cover entire battlefield
Ok I will try…but I only want an immediate effect, don’t need to choose any target.
Then it is a problem, you can only set LOCATION targetType so you can click on any hex to cast.
Did you try for this?
I only need two functions:
- SPELLCASTER can cast a mess spell
- It doesn’t need to choose any target(even a location with nothing)
range 0-16 is effective for mass spell.
however,how can I set target with just 3 creatures?
“targetCondition” : {
“allOf” : {
“core:creature.preserve:ancienttreant”:“absolute”,
“core:creature.preserve:treant”:“absolute”,
“core:creature.preserve:grimhippo”:“absolute”
}
},
is this true? But it is invalid.
wrong identifier format, should be smth like “preserve:creature.grimhippo”
but it’s still wrong:
post full json in PM please

Still same wrong format
"core:creature.preserve:ancienttreant"
should be "preserve:creature.ancienttreant"
Sorry…still wrong…cannot cast to any target
should be “anyOf” clause
Also there are more errors in configuration:
-
"minFullUnits" : 1means that spell will work only if at least one unit will be resurrected, is it desired? -
"indirect"to be used for obstacles only, there is indirect cure in resurrection spell as a special case for archangel, it will not work in your case.
I am outside now…could you help me to test it?By using any kinds of creatures. Thanks.
Send me minimal complete mod in private message.
I am outside…but it’s needn’t. No graphics and other stuffs, only a symbiosis.json is enough. You can put it into any town mod and any creatures.
With this configuration it only complains about missing icons

Thanks! I will test it while I am home!
This is little nonsense BTW. Or just placeholders.
