[Trigger] Detecting Unit Damage Range

[Ignorance]

So title says all, is it possible anyway to detect a units damage range?

 

[defskull]

What do you mean... ?
A unit can detect any damage done to anything in area around him ?

 

[Lambdadelta]

Do you mean the Attack Range of the damage source? Example being Melee is 128, and Ranged are like 600?

I don't think that's possible unless you database every single unit. You can get the distance between the units or the acquisition range though.

I meant damage range as in the range of damage they do on attack
Random Damage Range = 45-64

 

[Lambdadelta]

Also not possible.

Thank you very much
Is it alright if I ask another question?

Press ESC to display the damage range of all selected units.

This does not take buffs into account. Only attributes and items.

Which is kind of why it's not really possible.... not fully accurately possible.

Maker! You are the most wonderfully helpful person ever TYTY +REP

You can caluclate it but you can not really detect it due to how random it is and the lack of interaction with that field of the unit's data.

To calculate it you will have to reconstruct the formula WC3 uses in the first place but instead of access to the data at a low level, you will have to manually create tables to get the date from.

Yeah, and that sucks. But my system can still be useful. I'm using it in a map, where damage is dealt with triggers only. Heroes have no attack ability. I still want to display the damage in UI, and deal accurate damage with triggers. Then use custom buffs and keep track of them.
