[Trigger] Advanced - Unit - Change Unit's Damage

[Maker]

I created a map using WEU Enhancer, ticked the "Use advanced triggers" and then imported the map to my campaign.

In my map initialisation trigger there is the "Advanced - Initialize advanced triggers" action.

My trigger is as follows:

• Sword
  • Events
    • Unit - A unit Acquires an item
  • Conditions
    • (Item-type of (Item being manipulated)) Equal to Sword
  • Actions
    • Advanced - For (Hero manipulating item) Increase damage by 5

But it doesn't do anything. The trigger is initially on. Why I want to do this is that I want the added damage to not show as a green +5 next to the unit's damage (hence not using the "add 5 bonus damage" ability on the item), but to increase the white numbers.

Any help is greatly appreciated.

Not familiar with such action, but I do know that some of those advanced action have the tendency to display an akward behavior.

as for the damage, to deal the damage isn't that hard, but I wouldn't can't give you a real answer on how to display the extra damage other than just adding it via the item.

Some triggers in WEU dont work well. I sometimes use weu and.... im a BIT confused. And one thing, If you cant tell the difference of the Original Damage and the Updated Damage, then you must be stupid.
Lets say Original DMG is 50. You used trigger right? The Updated DMG should be +5. 50 + 5 = 55. But, you know, if the person drops the sword, the damage has to decrease by the increase digit.

I don't understand why don't you just add an item ability (Item Damage Bonus +X) to the Sword that increases damage by 5?

And don't rely on those weu advanced actions...

and do you people know that there is manual that originaly comes with weu? why no1 reads it?

I stopped using weu for the triggers and the mapping. I only use it for importing the minimap image, loading screen, etc. Thats all.

I recomend you not use advanced WEU triggers in as many cases as possible, in this case, instead, create an ability that increases attack by 10 and give it to the sword item.

LOL! READ THE !@#$ING FIRST POST! HE DOESNT WANT GREEEEENIE NUMBERS!
instead, make upgrade, that applies to unit you want, and set attack dice/base/sides per die bonuses, then via triggers enlarge abilitie levels

HappyTauren that wont work because if he dropps the sword there is no way to undo the damage.
The weu trigger does work but you obvilously DID NOT READ THE MANUAL!

Oh boy..

I don't want the green numbers, as stated in my initial post.

and do you people know that there is manual that originaly comes with weu? why no1 reads it?

I have read it, and done as it says.

Because ppl are dumb. Use abilities

I still don't want the added damage to be displayed as green numbers, as will happen when using abilities.

create an ability that increases attack by 10 and give it to the sword item.

And this does not add green +dmg?

I have done this also.

Thank you. I will try that.

EDIT:I got it working, thanks again.
