Question about Devour

I asked this before a long time ago, and ive still been unable to solve it. Why when you change Devour into a hero ability does it not work anymore. I dont understand why. If its a unit ability it works, yet, when I change it to be a hero ability it stops working, it no longer has an effect, and that unit cant devour another unit. I know it can work, its in Dota after all, but why cant I get it to work, what is it im not doing? Can anybody explain how to make it work?

are you giving the hero the "devour gargo" ability? Without the cargo abilities, such moves as load and devour, cause crashes.

well now i feel stupid, anyways, ill add that and see how it works, thanks

Well I personally tried it, and it didn't work either. The game always says "can't target" this and that (even though I experimented with all the target allowed options).
And I don't recall DotA having a Devour spell. Unless you meant the Butcher's spell, which isn't a devour spell.

It is in DotA, the Doom Bringer has Devour ability. If I am not wrong, you have to give the unit the ability to "transport" in order for it to be able to devour other units.

First of all study how codo beast abilitie is working and what codo beast skills have, then see that your abilitie should target the right targets (organic,ground,air etc.) then forget about triggers its just the abilitie believe me...
