Im looking for a way to make a Unit Generic Event that when a Unit gets hit by a spell, do action.

Unit Generic doesn't have Damage Taken, Unit Spesific does, but you cannot add unit groups. So im very confused and cant figure out how to do it. I know there is probbly some very simple way to do this so any help would be great.

Events
A unit starts the effect of an ability

Conditions
//Whatever you want

Actions
//Whatever again, using 'target unit of ability being cast' to refer to the unit hit by the spell
//Keep in mind that you can only reference this unit for somewhere around 0.1 seconds before the value is discarded, so avoid waits or store the unit with variables.

Already been more threads about generic unit takes damage, take a look at this http://hiveworkshop.com/forums/showthread.php?t=33847
You cannot determine if the damage was done by a spell unless you have a very good and accurate attack detection system(i would suggest Vex')
But Generic unit takes damage is possible, just check above link.

IIRC you use an Orb-based buff and for the damage taken thing, check to see if the damaged unit has the buff. If he has the buff, regular damage. Otherwise, spell damage.

Thanks for replys, iv thought about checking for a buff effect, but i got lazy and tired last night so i went to sleep. As far as the targeted unit takes damage that attually works, but the problem is the spell i was using is Shockwave and it doesn't detect the other units hit by its AOE.

ATM im working on Combo system with Chargible skills and other junk. Not bad for 3 week in wc3 editor.

I just got done reading that guys stuff on Generic Unit Dmg. You need CSCache and if you want it to detect damage baced on a spell you are going to need knowledge of JASS. I Posted in GUI becuase even thought i can read and understand a little about what JASS is doing i can not alter to get things i want like i can with GUI codes. If you can help me with altering that guys code so it regesters Damage taken from "Ability to be determined" That would help alot. I also want to use this JASS code to make a better Blood System that Increases Blood splater baced on % of units life. I know how to do it in GUI i just need to get this code working and ill be able to hopefully make a leak free version.
