that won't work with this system i want to be able to have it take no damage then take damage equal to my calculation result also i would like the coding to be Gui

 

[defskull]

Did you even read that page's content ?

- It's in GUI
- It can reduce damage for up to 100% (no damage taken)

The coding looks scary (JASS) but it's EASY if you read carefully on how to use it.

As it is, of course it wont... What do you want, an all mighty system that does all the things without you needing to do anything?

but if you learn to use it, you could do exactly what you wanted to achieve... and yes, it is GUI dude... Even just reading the title will let you know that it is GUI...

the second part is what i am going to deal with but the first part is going to be a bit tricky i have yet to find the code to make damage zero then take damage equal to random result

 

[Adiktuz]

you can do it at the gameplay constants... make a certain attack type deal 0 damage to all types of armor and give that attack type to the units (if that's what you need) or use that attack type for triggered damage that needs to be dealt as zero...

 

[The General]

gameplay constants i never thought to look there i found a trigger to deal damage against the unit but theres a problem it deals damage overtime i need it to deal damage once

 

[Adiktuz]

there are actions to deal damage to a unit...

 

[The General]

this trigger is what i found, Unit - Cause (Triggering unit) to damage (Triggering unit), dealing 500.00 damage of attack type Spells and damage type Normal

 

[Adiktuz]

it should only damage a unit once, as long as you only run it once... and that is called an action/function not a trigger...

 

[The General]

well the trigger i made is when a unit is attacked it gains back its life then takes the damage but theres a problem with that like i said the trigger up there takes damage overtime

wait a minute the answer to this system has been right in my face this whole time thanks guys for helping both of you get rep
