[General] Damage blocking from Damage Engine

[Kusanagi Kuro]

Hello everyone. I have a problem when using Damage Engine by Bribe: (I have just learnt to use it and need to learn more )
I create an ability that create a shield on the target. If the target is attacked (either by spell or normal attack), he wont receive damage. However, when the target is full hp, the damage block doesnt work. I dont know why that happen. Can anyone help me plz?
Also, check my old thread to see my other problem, it has many views but no one tell me how to solve it: http://www.hiveworkshop.com/forums/world-editor-help-zone-98/animation-when-casting-spell-226500/

That's just how damage prevention works, unfortunately.

The workaround is to have a short timer that "heals" the damaged unit immediately after it takes damage.

Oh man. Can I check if the unit is full hp, heal it after the damage is done, if it isnt, heal it before the damage is done?

is this what you're looking for ?

• (Percentage life of (Triggering unit)) Greater than or equal to 100.00

put that into the DamageModifierEvent, i think it might work.

and if you want to heal them after the damage is done.

• Unit - Cause DamageEventSource to damage DamageEventTarget, dealing (-1.00 x DamageEventAmount) damage of attack type Spells and damage type Normal

 

[Kusanagi Kuro]

I know the condition. I just want to check if I can do what I have said: Full hp = heal after damage, not full hp = heal before damage.

why not try it ?

• set Damage
  • Events
    • Game - DamageModifierEvent becomes Equal to 1.00
  • Conditions
    • (Unit-type of DamageEventTarget) Equal to Footman
  • Actions
    • If (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions)
      • If - Conditions
        • (Percentage life of DamageEventTarget) Greater than or equal to 100.00
      • Then - Actions
        • Trigger - Turn on On Damage <gen>
      • Else - Actions
        • Set DamageEventAmount = 0.00

• On Damage
  • Events
    • Game - DamageEvent becomes Equal to 1.00
  • Conditions
    • (Unit-type of DamageEventTarget) Equal to Footman
  • Actions
    • Trigger - Turn off (This trigger)
    • Unit - Cause DamageEventSource to damage DamageEventTarget, dealing (-1.00 x DamageEventAmount) damage of attack type Spells and damage type Normal

Okay. Thks.

 

[rulerofiron99]

AFAIK "DamageEvent" is still just before the actual damage is dealt.

Spoiler

no, you're wrong, i'm pretty sure the actual damage is already dealt.

just kidding.

sorry, i didn't know about that, thanks for the information. should rape rep you for this

 

[Faestus]

Or you could trigger the unit to always have -1 hp if he has full health.

Oh god why !!!!

 

[makai]

Unit - Set life of triggering unit to Damage taken

 

[Arhowk]

Unit - Set life of triggering unit to Damage taken

what.

DamageEvent is run after damage is taken. im pretty sure ive tested that.

 

[Kusanagi Kuro]

Then I'll test it too to make sure.

 

[makai]

eh i forgot

Unit - Set life of triggering unit to Damage taken + Life of triggering unit
