Most likely related to bug#911940, at least when used by an aircraft spawned by an SW - AE will attach to any target in the area, whether it has 0% against it or 100%.

I am having this issue with MultiMissile-type superweapon that is provided by a structure, not trigger. Does not matter if the AE is applied by the warhead of the payload weapon itself/SW.Warhead or an airburst weapon attached to the payload weapon's projectile, neither seem to respect the verses when applying AttachEffect.

This appears to be fixed in 0.9 build. I can't get AE from weapons and airstrike SWs to apply on incorrect targets now, unlike earlier.

I'm sorry, apparently i didn't test it out thoroughly enough. This was only fixed for regular weapons and SWs that use their weapon normally (airstrike SWs and EMPulse). Nuke and GenericWarhead still apply AE to their targets regardless of Verses= value.

Attach Effect did not even look at Verses when the AE had no source/owner. I changed this in the latest build, and AE now always respects Verses even if owner-less.

With 15.25.1254 this works as expected and no longer effects structures or enemies as it did previously:

[CloakAndDaggerWH]
Verses=100%,100%,100%,100%,100%,100%,0%,0%,0%,0%,0%
Versus.mcv=100%
CellSpread=2.5
Malicious=no
AffectsEnemies=no
AffectsAllies=yes
AttachEffect.Cloakable=yes
AttachEffect.Duration=1350
AttachEffect.Cumulative=no

From a generic warhead SW.

0% against an armor now correctly prevents the effect from being applied by both Nukes and GenericWarhead.
