[General] Attack priority

[Krakenn99]

Why do buildings (towers) attack the hero if he's low on hp and is there a way to stop that? I wan't the towers on my map to attack the hero last or only when he has attacked another hero in the tower range.

I think you want to go into object editor and set each of the heroes priority lower than the other units.

Then you need to make a trigger like this for making the towers attack heroes defensively.

• Tower Attack
  • Events
    • Unit - A unit Is attacked
  • Conditions
    • ((Attacking unit) is A Hero) Equal to True
    • ((Attacked unit) is A Hero) Equal to True
  • Actions
    • Unit Group - Pick every unit in (Units within 512.00 of (Position of (Attacking unit)) matching (((matching unit) is A structure) Equal to True)) and do (Actions)
      • Loop - Actions
        • If (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions)
          • If - Conditions
            • ((Picked unit) belongs to an enemy of (Owner of (Attacking unit))) Equal to True
            • ((Picked unit) belongs to an ally of (Owner of (Attacked unit))) Equal to True
            • ((Attacking unit) is in (Units within 512.00 of (Position of (Picked unit)))) Equal to True
          • Then - Actions
            • Unit - Order (Picked unit) to Attack (Attacking unit)
          • Else - Actions
            • Do nothing

This trigger would make any structure in 512 range attack your hero if you attacked an enemy hero on their team if you aren't on their team.

I edited the trigger of Tazuwukie

It is now leak free and also I ensure that it doesn't detect dead towers.

• Tower Attack
  • Events
    • Unit - A unit Is attacked
  • Conditions
    • ((Attacking unit) is A Hero) Equal to True
    • ((Attacked unit) is A Hero) Equal to True
  • Actions
    • Set temp_loc1= Position of Attacking Unit
    • Set temp_group = Units within 600 distance of temp_loc1 matching (((matching unit) is A structure) Equal to True)) and (matching unit) is alive) Equal to True))
    • Unit Group - Pick every unit in temp_group and do (Actions)
      • Loop - Actions
        • If (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions)
          • If - Conditions
            • ((Picked unit) belongs to an enemy of (Owner of (Attacking unit))) Equal to True
            • ((Picked unit) belongs to an ally of (Owner of (Attacked unit))) Equal to True
          • Then - Actions
            • Unit - Order (Picked unit) to Attack (Attacking unit)
          • Else - Actions
            • Do nothing
• Custom script: call RemoveLocation(udg_temp_loc1)
• Custom script: call DestroyGroup(udg_temp_group)

Actually all towers/units attack no matter a unit or hero that has low hp or when trying to kill a hero, I think it's a code script like AI order. I usualy backup the targeted unit but to prevent this from happening you'll need to trigger like these guys said ^^

Awesome, thanks. Now can you help me out trigger the part where towers will not attack low hp heroes?
