Damage Detection System

[ukn0wnD3str0y3r]

Hey everybody, can anyone help me about the GDD system?
I have a bad english and I not so understand how to use GDD...
Can anyone explain to me and give example about when enemy is attacks, deals damage or what.. Thanks...

Hi, you mean DDS, not GDD?

You don't have to write such a system on your own. You can use finished systems, example: http://www.hiveworkshop.com/forums/...1-1-0-0-a-231846/?prev=search=dds&d=list&r=20

I see, then it makes sense.

Doesn't really look like anybody has answered the OP yet;

Game - GDD_Event becomes Equal to 0.00 = a unit will be damaged

GDD_DamageSource = Unit that deals damage

GDD_DamagedUnit = unit that takes damage

GDD_Damage = how much damage unit will take (after damage reduction)

I have a question also since it is concerning this system, how does one index this so you can for example make a shield system. I pretty much have the idea, but this guy might want to know as well.

Game - GDD_Event becomes Equal to 0.00 Happens every time a unit would be damaged so it's fairly easy.

each time a unit gets this absorbtion shield add it to a group.

set variables like how much damage should be absorbed and which unit etc...

set index = index + 1
if index = 1 run trigger first instance created now run the trigger to see if unit's damaged

In the damage trigger check if the damaged unit is in the group

for each integerVar from 1 to index

DamagedUnit == ShieldUnit[integerVar] -> set ShieldAmount = ShieldAmount - Damage

if ShieldAmount[integer] is less than 0.00

set shieldAmount[index] = shield amount [integerVar] (Takes the last created instance and replace the instance which just completed with it)
set ShieldUnit[index] = ShieldUnit[integerVar] Same as before

(do this with all variables)

set integerVar = integerVar - 1 (makes the loop go through this instance again because it's technically a different one now)
set index = index -1 (reduces how many instances are running)

if index = 0 tun off trigger (this trigger) (if no instance is running then no need for this to check)

If the ability can expire after a duration then naturally you must have that too

Also if it's a target ability (like abbadon in dota) then it could be placed on same unit so you need to make it remove the previous and a lot of more stuff than I've explained in detail
