I believe the "attackmelee" opcode used in the Ultralisk's attack animation does damage without actually spawning the bullet, so it ignores secondary effects like the splash damage.

Instead, edit the Ultralisk's iscript so it works in the same way as the Firebat:

Code

UltraliskGndAttkRpt:
wait 1
nobrkcodestart
playsndrand 3 891 892 893 # Zerg\Ultra\zulAtt00.WAV | Zerg\Ultra\zulAtt01.WAV | Zerg\Ultra\zulAtt02.WAV
wait 2
playfram 0xdd # Frame set 13
wait 2
playfram 0xcc # Frame set 12
playsndbtwn 894 895
attkshiftproj 20
wait 2
playfram 0xbb # Frame set 11
wait 2
playfram 0xcc # Frame set 12
wait 2
playfram 0xdd # Frame set 13
wait 2
playfram 0xee # Frame set 14
wait 2
nobrkcodeend
gotorepeatattk
goto UltraliskGndAttkToIdle

You may need to adjust the distance on attkshiftproj to your liking. Then, change the graphic specified for Kaiser Blades in weapons.dat from "Scourge" to "White Circle"

For anyone interested in why we made these changes:

thanks

it works.

I was trying to mess with the attkshiftproj 20 to achive the long reach of Ultralisk, but even if I give him 2 range (weapon dat] and set the value to 40, he still need to touch the enemy to start eating.

None.

they basically lost most of their army in one big battle and didn't have the time and production to leverage the economic advantage and come back from that blow.
