Hanky:
Your spell is leaking and also to simple to get approved. Next time read the spell submission rules first please.

 

[-Berz-]

Could you provide some triggers, please?

I'll do that for you...

• Backtrack Setup
  • Events
    • Unit - A unit Learns a skill
  • Conditions
    • (Learned Hero Skill) Equal to Backtrack
  • Actions
    • If (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions)
      • If - Conditions
        • (Level of Backtrack for (Learning Hero)) Equal to 1
      • Then - Actions
        • Unit Group - Add (Learning Hero) to Backtrack_Grp
        • Trigger - Add to Backtrack <gen> the event (Unit - (Triggering unit) Takes damage)
      • Else - Actions

• Backtrack
  • Events
  • Conditions
  • Actions
    • Set Temp_Int = (Random integer number between 1 and 100)
    • If (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions)
      • If - Conditions
        • And - All (Conditions) are true
          • Conditions
            • Temp_Int Less than or equal to (5 + (5 x (Level of Backtrack for (Triggering unit))))
            • ((Triggering unit) is in Backtrack_Grp) Equal to True
      • Then - Actions
        • Hero - Create Backtrack and give it to (Triggering unit)
      • Else - Actions

It seems to be working ingame.

 

[axleion]

ehm... I think that the Backtrack trigger will run only for the unit added to the event by the Backtrack Setup....
so why do it need to add the unit to a group and check if the unit is in group whenever takes damage?

 

[Kuwagata]

Oh yea. Tks Dark_Axl and i updated.

If you destroy the group the trigger will malfunction, returning always false, thus it will never block the damage.

 

[Catch_ya]

hm oh now i see the unit in group condition sorry for that just nvm

 

[YourNameHere]

Well you don't need the group at all, because only units which have learned the skill are registered anyway.

 

[BloodSoul]

Well you don't need the function at all, because only units which have learned the skill are registered anyway.

What he said is true!

 

[baassee]

Event Units Takes Damage leaks string handle if I remembered correctly, not possible to make in GUI cause you need a Damage detection system for this.

What is backtrack item for something, block skill? That was different to DOTA atleast ...

 

[YourNameHere]

Event Units Takes Damage leaks string handle

Ultra fail? A string is not a handle; and why should a unit event leak a string? (How can you even leak strings?)

Ultra fail? A string is not a handle; and why should a unit event leak a string? (How can you even leak strings?)

Yes I know it sound crazy but have seen alot that say that event unit takes damage leaks (not event itself but the damage)

 

[Baldoro]

Instead of
Hero - Create Backtrack and give it to (Triggering unit)
(gives an item that uses itself giving You 0.01 sec invul)
it's better to just fix it using
Unit - Set life of (Triggering unit) to ((life of (Triggering unit)) + Damage Taken).
More like it's made in DotA.

Unit - Set life of (Triggering unit) to ((life of (Triggering unit)) + (Damage Taken x (Level of Backtrack for (Triggering unit)))
^ This way when Backtrack proceeds, You will be healed for 1/2/3/4 times of the damage You took.

Yeah, I know You guys know it :[.

 

[jim7777]

Baldoro you have a point :]

so if a unit is attacked, it would be healed up instead of evading it.

Eh what if the damage makes the unit dies? could it be healed up? especially when used in Kill systems.

and in some circumstances about the invulnerability, there are times that damage first before invulnerability takes place. But its within 2%

anyways, working in game

 

[Baldoro]

Eh what if the damage makes the unit dies? could it be healed up? especially when used in Kill systems.

It dies afaik.
The heal is given after the unit is damaged.
I am not sure anyway.
