    target_dual_position and its Targeting Algorithm

    Ground targeted spells with single target aim assist (Magmus Lava Surge, Pyro Phoenix Wave, Fayde Burning Shadows, Wretched Hag Bat Blast, Behemoth Fissure) all show "This is not a valid target" on buildings and catapaults (both friendly and enemy on both instances).

    Not reproducible on replays. Must test in-game.

    You can't target those target anyways, they fixed Lava Surge a while ago to be able to target ally so it's easier. Post in suggestion.

    The idea is the same as with the ally targeting fix. The building / catapult / ally is in the way of the ideal targeting point on a spell that is primarily for AoE rather than single targeting.

    I'll confirm it - targeting system should be reworked so that it essentially ignores any invalid units for target_dual_position spells
