[Solved] [Gameplay Constants] - Miss dmg factor

[Death Adder]

This exist to instead of making a missed attack 'miss' it will deal less dmg. Now this does not appear to work, a miss is a miss and 0 dmg is taken, tried with having an archer stand down hill and also with evasion ability.

I looked through the table in search for a boolean to switch between missing and reduced dmg but none were found, nothing similar either.

How do I use this, is it even possible or is it just some hardcoded shit that does not work?

I were hoping to use this so that normal miss for ranged units attacking uphill will be reduced dmg and use triggered evasion and crit for abilities like i would have done either way.

I guess you'll have to use a DDS, and incorporate some type of GetZ (which I think has bugs don't remember) to be able to know when to reduce the damage.

My only other suggestion is to add the defend ability thru a spellbook to your unit so that that way you can reduce damage by a %. You would do this with the event "A unit is attacked" and then again either use a GetZ type thing, or maybe you could use check based on pre-placed regions on high and low ground.

Hopefully this works for you.

It works perfectly for attacks of type missile (splash), artillery and artillery (line).

If you want single target, I advise you to use missile (splash) and set the all AoEs to 0 except "Aoe (Full Damage)" to 1.

Clever and definitly some possibilities. I might just have to do this unless there's something I haven't understood with how that miss factor works.

This works, thanks.
