I have some problems about Attach Effect based Cloak Gen.

I have some problems with Cloaking Machine using AttachEffect. It sometimes can not detect my units to cloak so i should attack command it to unit myself. But sometimes can. It also doesn't cloaks self. Here is the code.

"MustaphaTR: It sometimes can not detect my units to cloak so i should attack command it to unit myself, It also doesn't cloaks self."

- Set Range=99999 if you want they always work.
- Check FireOnce=yes, DecloakToFire=no if you want self cloak.
- About RadialIndicator you should set Primary weapon like engineer VituralScanner with Range=10, CloakGenerator is Secondary. RadialIndicator only effect Primary weapon.

I solved detection problems. I added DecloakToFire=no too. But if i make FireOnce=yes. It causes flickering cloak (a cloaking-decloaking cycle) on both cloaked units and cloak generator. If i make FireOnce=no it still don't decloaks self.

Add these code to your warhead and try again
AffectsAllies=yes
Malicious=no

Use ProjectileRange=0 instead of AreaFire.
