[JASS] Detect or calculate the amount of XP gained

[Ignitor]

Hi everybody!

I would like to implement an xp reduction similar to that in DotA i.e. if a unit is denied by the enemy you got only 40% of the xp you would gain if you killed the unit.

So i searched the forum and everything i found was the xp system that ultimatus made. but i don't like it because he calculates the amount of xp depending on the hero level only or something like that.

so my first question is: is that reduced xp gain for denied creeps DotA specific at all or is that standard wc3?? (i don't play standard wc3 therefore i don't know! ) (could it be that you gain zero xp for denied units in standard wc3?? 0_o?)

my second question is: if there is no other way than manually give the xp to the hero (using AddHeroXP) then how is the xp calculated exactly? (i know ultimatus already asked this question but there was no answer -.-)

First Question: Only DotA gives zero XP gain for denied creeps. They have the constants changed so that nobody get XP for any kills, then uses triggers to give out the XP ( I think )

EDIT: Its either that or they just turned off global distribution ( Also in the gameplay constants). Someone else will have to confirm tho.

Pre, if a player kills units only that player's allies' units get XP, so if you kill your own or your ally's, no one gets it.

But as you said with them still gaining some xp, that means it's triggered.

ok!

then if i have to do it manually by triggers: does anyone know how the xp is calculated in wc3?

No idea, just make up your own formula ><
