Basic attack of the summoned unit based on the summoning hero's stats

[jonbon29]

Hello guys I have thought of a simple summon unit spell that will have its basic attacks equivalent to the hero's stats who summoned the unit. Like for example the Spirit Wolf ability, the wolf basic attacks will be 30 + 30% of the hero's intelligence. However I'm quite unsure if this is even possible and have no idea how to do this with triggers

GUI Damage Engine
You can use this event "DamageModifierEvent Equal to 1.00" so you can modify the damage before it's dealt by your summoned unit. There is an option in your trigger where you can also add the Hero Attribute and can even include/exclude bonuses.

So there's a need of a Damage Engine, I already have this on my map http://www.hiveworkshop.com/forums/...rch=Physical%20Damage%20Detection&d=list&r=20 can I do it with this system instead?

Yes, just set the amount of PDD_amount to this:

• Set PDD_amount = (30.00 + (Real((Intelligence of Hero (Include bonuses)))))

You can also have the option to exclude/include bonus Int points of your Hero

it is possible if it is something like this
Atk: 45-50 + 30 where 30 is the bonus atk from summoner's stats.
But if you don't want that, then it is not possible.

Well I do want that, its just that I need some more details in the trigger. Yeah I know how to add the bonus damage using PDD, but how can I make that bonus damage equal to the summoners stats? Btw the units damage is flat 45.

You don't need PDD for that. I will make a sample map later to show you how to do it.

He said he already have a PDD in his map so that's why I used it but I also want to learn how you do the trigger without PDD.

If you have any question, ask.

EDIT: Don't forget to preload all involved abilities especially the Item Bonus damage to prevent that lag spike the first time the spell is used.

 

[Wasabee]

May I ask what is preload?? preload all involved abilities??

 

[Flux]

If you have tested that map, you will notice that the 1st time the spell is cast, it lags for a brief period. That is because the ability's data was not preloaded.
An analogy of preload is that imagine a map is a bedroom. The ability is for example a shirt. When the map first interacts with the ability (shirt), it has to be taken out from the closet. Then when its done, it is placed in a nearby location (lets say the bed). When the ability (shirt) is used again, the system (human) will no longer needs to go to the closet and looks for the closer place which is the bed. The brief lag is when the system goes to the closet.
So to preload an ability, just give that ability to any unit at Map Init (like putting the shirt in the bed) so that when the system used that ability, it will no longer lag for a brief moment (since the 'shirt' is already nearby)

Thanks now I understand.
