halo disappears during movement
In my scenario, a mermaid initiate is caught in a net and dragged onto land. The net is a halo effect added to the mermaid via
How do I do that? Thanks.

. The problem is, the net disappears during the mermaid's movement, then reappears when she stops. I would like the net to not disappear, but glide along with her, much like the Mage of Light's halo effect.How do I do that? Thanks.

Re: halo disappears during movement
I checked in 1.14, and it's the same. Apparently WML added halos (so the ones that are not directly in [unit_type]) are not rendered when the unit is moved by WML actions. Looks like a bug to me.
Main UMC campaigns: The Ravagers - now for 1.16, with new bugs!

Re: halo disappears during movement
Thank you! I was perplexed.
For the cut-scene, I'll make a similar mermaid [unit_type] with a net halo. That should work.
I'll report the bug.
