I’ve been trying to make an ability that gives me resources every time an enemy dies.
Here is my attempt at it.
I used the Developer program, so all the lines and such are correct.
Problem is, it never gives me any reasources. (crystal in this case)

does anyone have any ideas?
Also, I was working on a different ability.
And I got this error
Assert @ c:\gs\gamma\03\CodeSource\GS/Entity/Interfaces/IBuff.cpp(2032)
params.target != NULL
I was able to work around it, and the ability works now, but I am curious as to what it means
