[Solved] damageType isn't working or?

[BloodDrunk]

here:

• Necklace of Power Life Steal
  • Events
    • Game - damageEventTrigger becomes Equal to 1.00
  • Conditions
    • damageType Equal to 0
    • (source is A Hero) Equal to True
    • (source has an item of type |cFFFFFF00The Necklace of Power) Equal to True
  • Actions
    • Special Effect - Create a special effect attached to the overhead of source using Abilities\Spells\Undead\VampiricAura\VampiricAuraTarget.mdl
    • Special Effect - Destroy (Last created special effect)
    • Unit - Set life of source to ((Life of source) + (amount x 0.50))

I'm using Physical DDS, and I have condition which checks if the damage tyoe is physical (0), but when the enemy get's damaged with magic type, it also runs....
Why?? this bugs me.....

This works, no bugs in here...

You implemented the two abilities into your map and made sure they have the correct ID? You can specify the ID in the function InitGlobalVariables.

umm, what? what ID have to do with this? :O
I don't understand, dont flame me....

Hey no problem, I won't flame you man
Just ask as often as you need to.

The thing is, the detection will only work if you implemented the ability correct into your map. This means you copied the DAMAGE_TYPE_DETECTOR ability from the testmap to your map and that you gave it the correct ID.

To check which ID the ability has in your map, go to the object editor, and select "view as raw data" under "view". Then you will see the ID, in the testmap its 'A000' for example.

Once you know the ID, go to the DamageEvent trigger and search this function:

function InitGlobalVariables takes nothing returns nothing
    // Put here the correct ability IDs
    set udg_DAMAGE_TYPE_DETECTOR = 'A000'
    set udg_SET_MAX_LIFE = 'A001'
    
    // Here you can configure some stuff, read the documentation for further info
    set udg_SPELL_DAMAGE_REDUCTION_ITEM = 'brac'
    set udg_SPELL_RESISTANCE_AUTO_DETECT = false
    set udg_ETHEREAL_DAMAGE_FACTOR = 1.66
    set udg_BRACERS_SPELL_DAMAGE_REDUCTION = 0.33
    set udg_TRIGGER_CLEANUP_PERIOD = 60.0
endfunction

There you can specify the correct ID for both the damage type detection ability as well as for the damage modification ability.

If you have further questions or problems, just ask.

lfh

 

[BloodDrunk]

oh, cool I'm gonna check this, never knew that...
I though it will automaticly detect the type xD

 

[looking_for_help]

Once you put the correct ID it will

 

[BloodDrunk]

set udg_DAMAGE_TYPE_DETECTOR = 'A000'

I don't understand....
I have to put here the ID of ability which I want to detect as spell damage...
I have more of those lol

can you explain a bit more? hmmm...
I put here ID of immolation and then it will detect spell dmg of only Immolation, but trigg will run if other spell damage is received lol...

 

[Maker]

set udg_DAMAGE_TYPE_DETECTOR = 'A000'

I don't understand....

No, there is an ability in the dds map called DAMAGE_TYPE_DETECTOR. It is based on Runed Bracers and gives 2.00 damage reduction. Use that.
