[Trigger] Changing unit mana regeneration

[Bombastic]

I'm making a new map that will involve the entertaining sport "Zug Zug."

I want the players to be able to increase or decrease their run speed on the fly using abilities - how fast they are running will affect their "energy" (mana)

your mana will decrease slowly if you are running fast and increase slowly if you are walking. Is there a GUI mechanic to set the mana regeneration of a unit? I can't seem to find one. Also - can mana regeneration be set to a negative value?

 

[PatruX]

I can think of two ways of possibly achieving this:

Set the units base mana regeneration to X.
And then make dummy abilities with X% more or less regeneration and give it to the unit.

Or you could setup how much regeneration each point of intelligence grants the unit and modify the regeneration by adding / removing intelligence.

Sounds good, dummy abilities seems to be the way to go. Thanks for the help.

Any word on whether mana regen can be negative?

Yea, you can set negative mana regen, as far as I know. I'm not sure though.
Go to the unit's stats, and while clicking on its mana field HOLD SHIFT. Setting a field in WE while holding shift let's you enter negative values or values out of the field's limits.

Destroyers has Neg mana regen, so its possible to do it
