GUI vs. MUI

[Rykon-V73]

• Events
  • Unit - A unit Starts the effect of an ability
• Conditions
  • (Ability being cast) Equal to Natural Bond
• Actions
  • If (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions)
    • If - Conditions
      • ((Life of (Casting unit)) / 2.00) Greater than 1.00
    • Then - Actions
      • Unit - Set life of (Casting unit) to ((Life of (Casting unit)) / 2.00)
      • Unit - Set life of (Target unit of ability being cast) to ((Life of (Target unit of ability being cast)) + 400.00)
    • Else - Actions
      • Unit - Order (Casting unit) to Stop
      • Game - Display to (All players controlled by a User player) for 4.00 seconds the text: |cffffcc00Not enoug...

The code does work, but only for the hero and a unit. I want this code to work for the other units. I've been searching for tutorials MUI-related, but I can't find one that fits for me.

edit by mod: added trigger tags

That should work just fine.

Though change casting unit to triggering unit to be safe.

The Trigger you posted is instant, instant spells are always MUI.
From the text, below your trigger, I guess you want that this life transfer spell affects all units in a circle around the Caster or Target.

To affect more than 1 unit use the unit group category with in range of position.
Unit Groups do all things listed inside its loop for each unit inside the group, The current unit is addressed with picked Unit.

• Unit Group - Pick every unit in (Units within 512.00 of (Position of (Triggering unit))) and do (Actions)
  • Loop - Actions
    • -------- Actions --------
    • Unit - Set life of (Picked unit) to ((Life of (Picked unit)) + 10.00)

No. Same result as my previous code.

 

[Tasyen]

Could you give more details about your spell and the wanted behaviour.

Edit: My last tip was quite unspecific.

The code does work, but only for the hero and a unit. I want this code to work for the other units.

What do you mean?

What do you want to happen?

Your trigger does:
Unit casts spell > reduce casting unit's health by half > "heal" 400 hp to the target unit.

You have a condition which I believe is useless, units "die" when their health becomes <.405, so the fear of unit dying from splitting 1hp in half should be unnecessary.

Could you post a demo which shows it only works for the unit? It's then easier to understand.

 

[Rykon-V73]

I figured it out. Tasyen did help me. I specified the post about Tasyen's code, because of my mistake.
One more question: The code works great for a hero, but how do you make
the code for multiple necromancers casting the same spell, for example?

 

[IcemanBo]

The code irself isn't really limited to a hero, why do you think so?

 

[Rykon-V73]

I tried the same code on 2 necromancers and sometimes, the 2 one doesn't cast the spell.

 

[Tasyen]

Do you mind posting your new Trigger?

 

[Rykon-V73]

Never mind. I'll find a way to set things right. In the meantime, thank you.
