Help with simple healing spells based on stats

[gurgamel]

Hi, if someone would not mind helping me to trigger Holy Light so it heals more based on the caster intelligence.

Also if not to much im gonna need more, just healing spells but diffirent. Maybe something like a aoe heal around the caster and a circle aoe (like blizzard), frost nova heals one more peolpe around less. Channel heal (lifedrain).

Thanks on before hand, sry if it to much to ask but either this or one at a time.

 

[Alright]

• Holy Light
  • Events
    • Unit - A unit Starts the effect of an ability
  • Conditions
    • (Ability being cast) Equal to Holy Light
  • Actions
    • Unit - Set life of (Target unit of ability being cast) to ((Life of (Target unit of ability being cast)) + (1.65 x (Real((Intelligence of (Triggering unit) (Include bonuses))))))

Keep in this mind also that whatever Holy Light heals for in object editor will also add to the trigger mentioned before, so if you had it heal for 200, it would heal for 200 plus the intelligence coefficient.

> Maybe something like a aoe heal around the caster and a circle aoe (like blizzard), frost nova heals one more peolpe around less. Channel heal (lifedrain).

You could trigger it the exact same way with the first, but you might have to complicate it a bit more, using a region around the caster that picks every allied unit in the area and healing them. You can use the innate ability Channel to also channel healing to an allied unit, and so on.

You need to trigger the amount of the heal.
Holy Light is instant if I recall correctly so you don't need difficult stuff.

Make a trigger that runs when a unit has started the effect of an ability.
Do an ability comparison and check if (Ability being cast) is equal to (MyCustomHolyLight).
Then calculate the amount that you want to heal (remember that the spell itself can also heal if you still have an amount in the object editor.)
Then set the life of (target unit of ability being cast) to (life of (target unit of ability being cast) + healAmount).


For AoE heals, you pick every units in <real> range of <location> and set the life of picked unit instead.
Be aware that unit groups and locations leak so you might want to take a look at the leak thread.
But first lets see if you can make the first one.

Ehm, how do i get all of this? Unit "- Set life of (Target unit of ability being cast) to ((Life of (Target unit of ability being cast)) + (1.65 x (Real((Intelligence of (Triggering unit) (Include bonuses))))))"?

 

[Chaosy]

It's called arithmetic or something like that.

 

[gurgamel]

Could you be more specific?

 

[Chaosy]

I can't be more specific. It's black on white.

Unit - Set life of (Target unit of ability being cast) to (Select this then select Arithmetic)

I recommend you to make a global variable (call it TempReal) and split the action in 2.

1. Calcuate how much health/mana should be regained.
Make a global variable. This can be done by pressing crl+b or by clicking on the yellow 'X' at the top of the trigger editor. Then you click on the button to create a new one (dont know how it looks like) and you name it "TempReal" and as type you select "real".
Then you make an action (Set variable) and you select TempReal in the first field and you put the value in the second.
The value is calculated in multiple values so you want to use "Arithmetic" to combine them.
The one that you want is (1.65 x INT).
For INT, you have to use a convertion called "Convert Integer to Real".
This is because attributes are retrieved as integers rather than reals.
When you have the convertion, you select "Intelligence of Triggering unit (Include bonusses)" and you have your heal calculation.

2. Add that amount to the unit.
Now you make an action "Unit - Set life (to value)" and you set the value to "Arithmetic" current health + TempReal.
Because you have TempReal rather than the whole calculation, you now can moify it easier, it is easier to read and you can copy and paste a lot of stuff.

 

[gurgamel]

I only get this far "unit - set life of (triggering unit) to (life of (targe unit of ability being cast))"

Had a pretty long break, hope not to long.

 

[Light]

oh dear
everyone already clearly explained it to you, what part are you confused about?

 

[gurgamel]

After the +, cant get that extra part.

 

[Arad MNK]

I'm Currently working on a N00b Tutorial. It'll Come out soon for you.

 

[RobertMKD]

Choose Arithmetic and then on the place of the first 1.00 put life of triggering unit, while on the second one, put another Arithmetic and then set (example) 1.5 then instead of + choose x and on the second one intelligence of trigg unit.

 

[gurgamel]

Thanks, got it now. Arad, looking forward

 

[Arad MNK]

Ok, We'll Start with add action, then Unit: Set Life.
I Have set Priorities so we can talk More comfortable.

Clicky

Then, Change the Triggering Unit to: Target Unit of Ability being Cast.

Click Me Please!

Then, Change the (Life of Triggering Unit) to Arithmetic.
A Whole new Menu Pops up. I'll Add more Priorities.

I'm Hidden!

Change A. to (Life of (Target Unit of Ability being cast)).

Imagy

Then, On B., AGAIN Choose Arithmetic.

Pic

Change A. with anything you want, In this case I used Alrights' 1.65 and then change B. With X. (Times)

Image

on C., go to Conversion - Convert Integer to Real.

Picture

There, Head to: Hero - Hero Attribute.

Attribute

Change them As you Want. Remember to Include Bonuses and Set the Hero to Target unit of Ability being cast.

Capture

The Result will be somewhat like This:

RESULT

Hope this helps!
_{It better do, Took me +1 hour....}

This is the kind of help i need, thanks

Yes arithmetic is a pain in WC3 GUI. Especially due to the poor navigation of nested arguments and functions.

Might I recommend writing JASS? That way if you want to add something you simply press the '+' key and do not have all the bad GUI navigation nonsense to deal with.

You are right, JASS Is definitely better, as I am currently trying to learn JASS, But JASS Is helpful when you are no longer in medium Class GUI, if you are becoming a PRO, Then that's the time you would like to learn JASS.

You see he is still a N00b (no offense, OK?), he is new to GUI (Again, No Offense) and You ask him to learn JASS? (This time, no offense to you, DSG)

Now to you, Gurgamel, Keep learning GUI For now and if you have any problems, feel free to PM Me.
