Floating text

[UltraPower123]

How to make a trigger that will create a text above a dying unit and so that this text will disappear after 2 sec.

And to increase specific unit mana pre 1 for every dying unit.

    • Floating Text - Change (Last created floating text): Disable permanence
    • Floating Text - Change the fading age of (Last created floating text) to 1.00 seconds

    • Unit - Set mana of No unit to ((Mana of No unit) + 1.00)

You could use "Daying unit" instead of "Triggering unit"; I know both function work but just to prevent malfunction trigger.

And to increase specific unit mana pre 1 for every dying unit.

You mean the attacking unit everytime she kills a target to increase her mana +1?

@WereElf :
I'm not sure that function is correct, you didn't specify which target

 

[WereElf]

Well, ofc... I was just giving an example how would the trigger look. He can chose which unit should be getting the mana.
And what's wrong with "Triggering unit"?

Nothing special, it just an easiest way to detect an event eg : " a unit die" = " Daying unit", as a matter of fact, that "triggering unit" depends on the condition.

thx.

How can I make a trigger that will play gate taking damage animation everytime unit hit unit with game model.

 

[Warseeker]

I'm not sure if I understand correct but I suppose you want a gate to take damage while playing hit animation but without causing damage to the gate, is that what you mean?

 

[UltraPower123]

Well if you change the model of some unit to gate model that unit wont play hitting animation unlike the decoration type gate.
So I want this unit with gate animation to play that animation anyway.

 

[Warseeker]

Turn that unit into a gate doodad, I'm not sure you can turn a unit into this with triggers unless you created your own unit based on gate model in the Object Editor.

 

[UltraPower123]

How do you turn unit into gate doodad?

 

[UltraPower123]

And what is dooded?

 

[Warseeker]

Check the Object Editor/Doodads.
