Damage Modification System
Description
A simple system that makes modifying damage (Critical Strike, Block, Evasion) easy and provides events for when any of those occur.
Requires Bribe's Unit Indexer and Damage Engine (modified)
Note: All spell damage in your map must be triggered. Two temporary variables must be set for the system every time you deal spell damage.
Usage
Example: Spell damage

Description
A simple system that makes modifying damage (Critical Strike, Block, Evasion) easy and provides events for when any of those occur.
Requires Bribe's Unit Indexer and Damage Engine (modified)
Note: All spell damage in your map must be triggered. Two temporary variables must be set for the system every time you deal spell damage.
- Attack/spell damage is detected separately
- Critical Strike - chance/percent bonus/flat bonus
- Evasion - chance
- Block - reduce damage by flat or a percentage
- Any of these can work for attacks/spells, e.g. you can make an aura that offers evasion against spell damage.
- Damage display system - floating texts, configurable colours for attack/spell damage, "!" for critical strikes, size can be based on current/max health
- Configure SFX to be displayed on criticals
- Events fired on Evasion/Block/Critical for other code usage
- Conditions are all specified in empty triggers provided by the map, in these triggers you use DamageEventSource/DamageEventTarget/DamageEventAmount to perform any checks you need, e.g. does a unit have a buff, or does a unit have an item, or what is the level of an ability for a unit.
Usage
----------- SPELLS -----------
All spell damage must be triggered, as in the Holy Light Damage example.
The following actions are required:
Set DamageEventType = 1
Set DMGS_Ability = (Ability being cast)
Unit - Cause (Triggering unit) to damage (Target unit of ability being cast), dealing 100.00 damage of attack type Spells and damage type Universal
The first line sets the damage type to SPELL, you can use 0 if you want the spell to be considered an "attack".
The second line sets the ability for usage in other checks, e.g. critical strike.
Then deal the damage.
----------- PASSIVE EFFECTS -----------
In the DMGS Get Critical trigger.
Make an if then else where you check for the ability's conditions, using
DamageEventSource - the unit dealing the damage
DamageEventTarget - the unit taking damage
DamageEventType - if damage is attack (0) or spell (1)
DamageEventAmount - amount of damage being dealt
----------- CRITICAL STRIKE -----------
Modify the damage:
Set DMGS_CriticalChance - the chance of critical strike
Set DMGS_CriticalPercent - the damage as a percent of current damage (1.00 = normal damage, 1.5 = 50% bonus damage)
Set DMGS_CriticalBonus - a flat bonus to be applied
Note: you must use CriticalPercent, otherwise no damage will be dealt. if you just want a flat bonus, set CriticalPercent = 1.00
----------- EVASION -----------
Modify evasion chance. After performing conditions;
Set DMGS_Evasion - the % chance of evading
----------- BLOCK -----------
Modify damage reduction
Set DMGS_Block - flat amount to be deducted from damage
Set DMGS_Reduction - percent of damage lost
----------- ORDER -----------
1. Evasion
2. Damage Reduction - %
3. Damage Block - flat (cannot go below zero)
4. Critical Bonus - flat
5. Critical Percent - %
----------- EVENTS -----------
You can trigger other code when critical/evasion/block happens like this:
Evasion Event Example
Events
Game - DMGS_EvasionEvent becomes Equal to 1.00
Conditions
Actions
Game - Display to (All players) the text: A unit is evading!
Use
DMGS_EvasionEvent becomes Equal to 1.00 - before damage is reduced to 0
DMGS_EvasionEvent becomes Equal to 2.00 - after damage is reduced
Similarly for crit and block:
DMGS_CriticalEvent becomes Equal to 1.00 - before damage increase
DMGS_CriticalEvent becomes Equal to 2.00 - after damage increase
DMGS_BlocklEvent becomes Equal to 1.00 - before damage reduction
DMGS_BlockEvent becomes Equal to 2.00 - after damage reduction
Note that for these events you can still use:
DamageEventSource
DamageEventTarget
DamageEventAmount
All spell damage must be triggered, as in the Holy Light Damage example.
The following actions are required:
Set DamageEventType = 1
Set DMGS_Ability = (Ability being cast)
Unit - Cause (Triggering unit) to damage (Target unit of ability being cast), dealing 100.00 damage of attack type Spells and damage type Universal
The first line sets the damage type to SPELL, you can use 0 if you want the spell to be considered an "attack".
The second line sets the ability for usage in other checks, e.g. critical strike.
Then deal the damage.
----------- PASSIVE EFFECTS -----------
In the DMGS Get Critical trigger.
Make an if then else where you check for the ability's conditions, using
DamageEventSource - the unit dealing the damage
DamageEventTarget - the unit taking damage
DamageEventType - if damage is attack (0) or spell (1)
DamageEventAmount - amount of damage being dealt
----------- CRITICAL STRIKE -----------
Modify the damage:
Set DMGS_CriticalChance - the chance of critical strike
Set DMGS_CriticalPercent - the damage as a percent of current damage (1.00 = normal damage, 1.5 = 50% bonus damage)
Set DMGS_CriticalBonus - a flat bonus to be applied
Note: you must use CriticalPercent, otherwise no damage will be dealt. if you just want a flat bonus, set CriticalPercent = 1.00
----------- EVASION -----------
Modify evasion chance. After performing conditions;
Set DMGS_Evasion - the % chance of evading
----------- BLOCK -----------
Modify damage reduction
Set DMGS_Block - flat amount to be deducted from damage
Set DMGS_Reduction - percent of damage lost
----------- ORDER -----------
1. Evasion
2. Damage Reduction - %
3. Damage Block - flat (cannot go below zero)
4. Critical Bonus - flat
5. Critical Percent - %
----------- EVENTS -----------
You can trigger other code when critical/evasion/block happens like this:
Evasion Event Example

DMGS_CriticalEvent becomes Equal to 2.00 - after damage increase
DMGS_BlocklEvent becomes Equal to 1.00 - before damage reduction
DMGS_BlockEvent becomes Equal to 2.00 - after damage reduction
Note that for these events you can still use:
DamageEventSource
DamageEventTarget
DamageEventAmount

Here is what happened :
I downloaded the system without seeing who made it. The way how floating text bounces made my day. I closed the system. Then i scrolled up (from the download button) and saw the dope description. Then i said to myself - this must be defskull or rulerofiron... there was no "Simple" in the name of the system, so i knew it was rulerofiron.
AND I WAS RIGHT.
Dope system, bro! I don't even need to look at the code because i know it's right (and because of laziness).
+rep (after i spread some)

Glad you like it
I actually started the system for another project just for the floating text, then I realised I'd need a better damage modification system, and here we are.

I love how the floating text jump off the units
also the system is quite good but the biggest minus of this system is that you have to trigger even the most basic spells
nevertheless its great system, seems like leakless but I didnt check all of it 4/5 for me (the golden reserve must be there )

Great work one after another system made in gui but i would say this is one of the useful ones for map makers to improve their visual game play.
I think you might want to add evasion sfx since u did for critical. And last hit kills damage text fade in different variation.

Bribe's Damage engine does most of the work, though. This system is just an easy "management" interface.

Hmmmm...There is no % for block?I am currently using
There is a problem using this since if I make multiple "random integer number" with different %, sometimes more than 1 block will trigger, which I don't want to happen.
How to prevent them from activating at the same time?Random number is 2=all 3 blocks activate
-
(Random integer number between 1 and 100) Less than or equal to 30

^ do that.
Btw, each of those will give its own random number, so any possibility and combination of them activating at the same time is possible.

I didn't consider that when I did the ordering, I'll change it to do criticals first.

Another would be adding two different blocks:
Xblockspell = 100 damage block
Yblockspell = 50 damage block
Incoming damage 75
Damage will be 25
I did this by changing the paladin's flat reduction from ten to one hundred (as well as the damage type to spell) and the priest's inner fire spell block to fifty.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Also how would I go about detecting zero damage?
I Tried making a two part spell by using acid bomb with no damage and a 0.16 second buff. Then the trigger could just detect the buff and remove it and cause a dummy to cast another spell, but so far no results.

I Tried making a two part spell by using acid bomb with no damage and a 0.16 second buff. Then the trigger could just detect the buff and remove it and cause a dummy to cast another spell, but so far no results.

That's brilliant.
You can detect the value of DamageEventAmount using the DamageModifyEvent, and then check for buffs.
Acid Bomb is especially neat because you can set the damage to only be dealt after a small delay, to be sure that the buff is applied before the damage.

did you fix the block problem I mention before?
Scratch that, twas a buff mistake on the object editor; but, I found a knot, when trying to detect zero damage through the DamageEvent equal to 2.00, if the target is currently taking damage it will be ignored whether or not you have the DamageEventoveride set to true.

Err, I'll have to take a look at the blocking again.
Thanks for mentioning the override, I'll take a look at that as well.

That detection is fairly easy to add yourself; just check if Damage Source unit is a ranged unit (I believe there's a boolean for this)

I want to use this system to create an ability similar to Hardened Skin. Is there a way to set a minimum damage value? For example my unit deals 27 damage, the reduction will be flat 25 but the minimum value is 10 so the units still deals 10 damage to the unit with the hardened skin ability.
EDIT: I figured it out sry for disturbing you

The reduction only working when:
1. Must be in -------- Paladin passive spell reduction -------- section. ( Other than that it wont work!)
2. Damage type must be 0 but it also reduce damage taken from spell (both physical damage and spell reduced) while Damage taken from Damage type 1 is not reduced.

Working fine on my end.
Note the way you initially had the example trigger setup:
Both the Devotion Aura and the Paladin Passive sections adjusted the DMGS_Reduction variable, so even if the first one checks (Devotion Aura), if the second one (Paladin) also checks then the value for DMGS_Reduction is overwritten.
I noticed that you added Frost Nova; but you haven't configured it for the system.
The big drawback of this system is that you must trigger all spell damage in your map, as you can see I've done in the Holy Light Damage trigger.

This system looks really usefull but can you stack crit rate and crit damage by using this system? For example a hero has item1(5% crit chance) and item2(15% crit chance) then CritChance will be 20%?

This resource won't work beyond patch 1.29. You'll need to update the Damage Engine in this map to the latest version.
