Custom Stats

[meercat]

I've been planning to put up some custom stats, please give suggestions how.

Something like would appear in the hero stats too or something more fabulous.

Try a leaderboard, if you have your spells triggered, you can make them depend on the custom stats then, along with the normal ones.

Well i'd prefer a multiboard since i can minimize it if it isn't needed. Plus, you can also give icons to the rows you made (e.g. for hero icons)

Yep, good point Squiggy. Inverted just wrote a great tutorial on multiboards a few days ago. You can find it in the tutorials section.

 

[Volvox]

Yeah, multiboard is definitely cooler.

 

[PurplePoot]

Floating text that follows your screen is always cool, though admittedly it can be a pain to get it working.

 

[Kwah]

Hmmm, pehaps additional abilities that show up in spell book telling you what the additional stats are. These abilities would just be "dummy" abilities and not actually do anything just list information.

 

[emperor_d3st]

Well, it would be a pain in the ass to have (number of custom stats)*abilities with (max level of custom stats) levels.

I have more problem...

I cant just add armor or damage in trigger., research perhaps but I need more space saving idea... advance thx

And Is there niweiz to make a custom evasion and Critical strike? That will lump up together, I mean they are based on my custom stats and some items have both evasion and critz....

It's pain to make a map really...

 

[Squiggy]

uhm - do it by research

Second, so you need a custom critical strike and a custom evasion?
I could try it

//edit: ehm wait.. are you serious?

 

[emperor_d3st]

There is no way to just add armor to a unit. You'll have to do that by researches or maybe giving the unit +armor item ability works as well.

Right - and for the custom critical strike (and/or evasion):
If they shall be based on the normal damage a unit does, use the normal critical strike (even has implemented evasion :O ). If not, i don't know what you mean.. you could do something like
If random integer number from 1 to 5 equal to 1
Then do *damage* x 2
-> 20% chance to hit the enemy for double damage
Problem: i can't figure out how to detect the damage a unit does (use the searchfunction)

Thx for trying... I think there is really no function to detect damage.

GetEventDamage(), which responds to event EVENT_UNIT_DAMAGED.
