??Floating Text Damage System??

[Joying]

Hi!

Im searching for a PERFECT floating text system that
- Shows the damage that your hero does
- Shows healing
- Shows AOE type damage spells direct damage

Is it possible ?

yes its possible

All you need is "Detect Damage" Engine with JASS. Search for tutorial in this site.

For Healing, you can do it without JASS tho

Ehm, you can do all without jass.
I used that trigger in my old map and it worked properly.

At first you need to add an event to trigger which will show damage.

• Actions
  • Unit Group - Pick every unit in (UnitsMatchingCondition: ***)) and do (Actions)
    • Loop - Actions
      • Trigger - Add to Damage <gen> the event (Unit - (Picked unit) Takes damage)
  • Custom script: call DestroyGroup( GetLastCreatedGroup() )

Then, damaging trigger:

• Conditions
  • ((Damage source) is A Hero) Equal to True
  • (Integer((Damage taken))) Greater than 0
• Actions
  • Floating Text - Create floating text that reads (String((Integer((Damage taken))))) at (Position of (Triggering unit)) with Z offset 0.00, using font size 10.00, color (100.00%, 60.00%, 28.00%), and 0.00% transparency
  • Floating Text - Change (Last created floating text): Disable permanence
  • Floating Text - Set the velocity of (Last created floating text) to 60.00 towards 90.00 degrees
  • Floating Text - Change the lifespan of (Last created floating text) to 3.00 seconds
  • Floating Text - Change the fading age of (Last created floating text) to 1.00 seconds

that should work ... but that is only detecting for units that are placed in the game before you run that trigger... if you wanna add units that appeared in the game after the first trigger execution you have to do the same... else they wont be in the damage detection system

for ie: unit enters playable map area then Add to Damage <gen> the event (Unit - (entering unit) Takes damage)

could u make 1 for spell ? so i can change id for spell and make it work ^^ could be nice

oh yea, u can do it with GUI but it will cause leaks

 

[Day-Elven]

The most number GUI triggers cause leaks. You can use global location variables for positions of flying text. I don't think that author of this thread want to make it on jass.

A damage detection system is very simple (difficult = 2/10)
hard thing is to make a leakless one (difficult = 8/10)
