Decreasing mana

[SimonKurciski]

Is it possible to make a trigger that slowly drains mana from all units? I know this is possible, I've seen it done in maps, but can I do this without JASS?

On a similar topic, how can I take an ability (say endurance aura) and make the movement speed bonus negative, so it makes units go slower?

Something like that?

• Mana drain
• Events
  • Time - Every 1.00 seconds
• Actions
  • Unit Group - Pick every unit in (playable aera)
    • Do
      • Unit - Set mana of (picked unit) = mana of (picked unit) - n

Hold down shift and open the field. There will be absolutely no limits on the field, in either direction. You will be able to surpass the maximum value that it normally allows, and you will also be able to surpass the minimum.

What he means is set the mana regen to a negative value. He said that... jsut forgot the details a little...

Actually, you could create an brilliance aura with maxed range, no buff, and then give it to a neutral-passive unit (the buff is only so it doesn't stack, right? I don't think it would need the buff)

The other option is to just check the box in preferences that says:
Allow negative reals in object editor.
Of course, this still doesn't allow negative integers and editing pure raw code.
Blasted macs don't do the shift click trick though, so they are limited.

Shift+click is better because it allows you to surpass all limits imposed by WE.
