btw when his hp is low like 5 hp and he got hit for 6+ dmg he dies

is there ani way to make a sistem to protect his hp ???
so he dosent die ?

Try triggering it off of the "Unit takes Damage" event instead of making it periodic.
DotA has some way of preventing units from dying (Dazzle's spell); I imagine this is how they do it.

Well, use the Real value (Event Response - Damage Taken).

I can't say for sure, but I think that this will allow you to add the health back to the unit without it dying.

tw3ye · Feb 8, 2011

Thanks + rep
but this dosent work for me

Set PT_Dmg = (Integer((Damage taken)))

Set PT_Dmg = (Integer((Damage taken)))

Don't turn it into an integer. You will want to keep it Real

(sorry, that was lame).
Add (Damage Taken) to the current life of the unit whenever he takes damage.

EDIT: the "Unit takes Damage" event only works for a Specific Unit event.
You will have to write a trigger that

checks for that ability to be cast; then...
turns of this trigger
adds the "(Casting Unit) takes Damage" to the events of DevineShield03

DevineShield03 should start out with nothing in its Events section.

Did you do what I said in the third post? "Unit is Attacked" can't be used as the Event. "Unit Takes Damage" must be used.

lol, no you don't... as I said before.

You will have to write an additional trigger that:

checks for that ability to be cast; then...
turns of this trigger
adds the "(Casting Unit) takes Damage" to the events of DevineShield03

DevineShield03 should start out with nothing in its Events section.

This way, the first time your unit casts the spell, the specific unit event for your unit is added to the trigger. (of course, this assumes that this is the only unit that will be casting this spell)

Baintastic · Feb 8, 2011

Before you try these triggers, there are two abilities you should look into:
Defend (item) - not sure if you can block melee attacks with this one, but you can definitely make it block spells and ranged attacks.
Hardened Skin - not sure if it will block spells, but it will block melee and ranged damage.

The only problem with these spells is that I can't think of a good way to track the amount of damage or times they block damage.

If those are no help, try the following:

Devine_Count should be an Integer.
Devine_Hp should be an be a Real.

The unit takes damage event fires before damage is actually dealt. As such any rehealing has to be done after a delay. To stop the unit dieing, you will need tobuff its hitpoints until the end of the delay as multiple further attacks may occur between now and then.

Timer with 0 delay is valid and enough of a delay but is not instant.

Thank you! I always wondered about that. So...
What this means is that you can just add the event damage to the current health of the unit without using that delay and that will keep the unit from dying... so try this...

What this means is that you can just add the event damage to the current health of the unit without using that delay and that will keep the unit from dying

No, as a unit can not exceede its maximum health and as such if the event damage + current health exceedes its maximum health it will not get healed properly.

Dr Super Good said:

yes, that is a good point

but it will still prevent the unit from dying, unless the unit is being hurt his full health... I suppose that putting a delay in and then setting the health back to the original amount wouldn't be a bad idea as long as the unit is still given enough health before the damage so that it also doesn't die.

Dr Super Good · Feb 9, 2011

Thus you heal the unit to full HP and can even add a HP booster ability to make sure it can not die. You then remove the HP booster and reset the HP.

Too simple for a test map:

Example ofc
- Events
  - Unit - Unit Takes damage (with damage detection system)
- Conditions
  - ((Triggering unit) has buff Shallow Grave) Equal to True
  - (Damage taken) Greater than or equal to (Life of (Triggering unit))
- Actions
  - Unit - Set life of (Triggering unit) to Damage taken + 0.50

Of course,it would require damage detection system.

defskull · Feb 10, 2011

The "Set Life" Action is done AFTER the unit has taken the damage
If the unit has taken damage of 70 and his current HP is 50, wouldn't that unit dies first, after the trigger is fired ?
His HP should be -20 and the trigger just started to fire up ?

Garfield1337 · Feb 10, 2011

"Unit takes damage" event fires before the damage is taken,so this works,i've tested it.

Dr Super Good · Feb 10, 2011

"Unit takes damage" event fires before the damage is taken,so this works,i've tested it.

That is what I said ages ago...

The unit takes damage event fires before damage is actually dealt

.

To prevent death you have to fully reheal the unit, add a large HP bonus ability and then keep track of its actual hitpoints over the delay period via triggering. A delay of 0 seconds is sub frame so you should not notice anything.

defskull asked so i had to repeat it

not really asked,he has claimed the opposite...
