Can Bribe's GUI Damage Engine differentiate spell and physical damage?

Can Bribe's GUI Damage Engine differentiate spell and physical damage? Thanks.
If so, how to do that?

 

[Nestharus]

It can't

 

[deathismyfriend]

there is a damage system that detects physical and spell damage though. Not sure which one it is tho.

 

[Geshishouhu]

It can't

>_< Oh no....
I know your DDS system can do that and I really want to use it... but I'm a noob and don't know how to use it... I really hope you can make a simple tutorial about it.
LOL

It's pretty simple to use if you know vJASS, but lfh's can also detect the difference, and it's GUI, but it's poorly coded and has bad performance

It may be lfh's.

Then I will try to learn vJASS and use yours.. >_<

 

[Nestharus]

mine is going to have some performance boosts in the future + dynamic events + unit specific events ;D

Sounds great and looking forward to it.

Use LFH if you want to filter out damage and know if it was Physical, Spell or Code.

Bribe's doesn't do that.

Hey, Nes. I was trying to slightly modify your demonstration by doing this, but it did not work:

if (archetype == Archetype.PHYSICAL)and (targetId == 'Hmkg' ) then
            set damage = damage - GetHeroStr(target,false)
        endif

Did I do something wrong? I want to set physical damage reduction for mountain king.

Edit: I changed it like this and it worked:

if (archetype == Archetype.PHYSICAL)and (GetUnitTypeId(target) == 'Hmkg' ) then
            set damage = damage - GetHeroStr(target,false)
        endif

Use LFH if you want to filter out damage and know if it was Physical, Spell or Code.

Bribe's doesn't do that.

Thanks for the information.

Just a warning, you can have negative damage, so be careful


First do your damage reduction, then do your damage absorption

Yea, just notice the negative damage, but it seems harmless, isn't it?

Aren't damage reduction and damage absorption the same thing?

 

[Nestharus]

no, they aren't the same thing

damage reduction minimum is 0
damage absorption minimum is < 0

If a unit has 10 hp and takes 5 damage, and then you do

set damage = -damage

That unit will then heal for 5 hp instead of taking 5 damage (-5 damage).

Got it, thanks.
I have a problem with the system, when I set

 set s__DDS_DDS__damage_p = 1

There is no effect at all, the unit takes the same amount of damage as if s__DDS_DDS__damage_p is not set to 1.... I think I did something wrong, but not sure what went wrong...
