[JASS] Changing a unit color when it's damaged

[Cokemonkey11]

Doesn't work.

Any suggestions?

function funCannonColorC takes nothing returns boolean
    return true //GetUnitAbilityLevel(GetTriggerUnit(),'B018')>0
endfunction

function funCannonColorA takes nothing returns nothing
    local integer r = GetRandomInt(1,255)
    local integer g = GetRandomInt(1,255)
    local integer b = GetRandomInt(1,255)
    call SetUnitVertexColor(GetTriggerUnit(),r,g,b,255)
endfunction

function InitTrig_funCannonColor takes nothing returns nothing
    set gg_trg_funCannonColor = CreateTrigger()
    call TriggerRegisterUnitEvent(gg_trg_funCannonColor,udg_PlayerBoat[3],EVENT_UNIT_DAMAGED)
    //call TriggerAddCondition(gg_trg_funCannonColor,Condition(function funCannonColorC))
    call TriggerAddAction(gg_trg_funCannonColor,function funCannonColorA)
endfunction

The green text is comments. Should they be?
Right now you allways returning false, and therefor nothing. Or.. ?
Wait. you dont even call the condition, so your just checking the action?

Ahh i know it!
Your setting it to
R,g,b,Opacity
But Opacity can highest be 100 (100 = normal)

Just change 255 to 100 in that line.

nope blooddancer that isn't the problem
the problem is the event i think EVENT_UNIT_DAMAGED can't be used that way i think you first have to register if the unit is attacked

It's nearly that what xD.Schurke said.
AFAIK you can't set variables with EVENT_UNIT_DAMAGED... you have to add the event to the trigger in another one

.... i'm a bad liar

native TriggerRegisterUnitEvent takes trigger whichTrigger, unit whichUnit, unitevent whichEvent returns event


No.
