Attack Ground Event

[rulerofiron99]

Is there a way to detect every instance of an attack ground attack? That is, detecting every time the artillery unit fires.

Well what do you need it for?

Creating units, counting shots, creating a ability for it...

While making this system, I realised I needed to be able to detect every attack ground attack.

I'm currently busy making a system that replaces regular attack ground. I'm just checking to see if this system already exists, if my system will be for nothing.

I dont know but this MIGHT work I will test it in a second

• Untitled Trigger 001
  • Events
    • Unit - A unit Is issued an order targeting a point
  • Conditions
    • (Issued order) Equal to (Order(Attack Ground))
  • Actions

That only detects when the unit is ordered to begin firing.

The system I'm building uses an ability and a dummy unit in place of the artillery attack, but presents various problems that require lengthy workarounds.

PS: The order string is "attackground".

Then I think your system will be useful, maybe you can detect it with a damage detection system but I doubt it

Yeah thought of that, but that's much too limiting.

My system is almost complete, just busy fighting with attack cooldown, group attacks and attack repetition.
