How can i change the exact value of stats of a unit.

[Hydrax1231]

Hello , recently i was bored of all RPG maps because good ones i finished.. but today doesn't exist a good RPG map.. i want to make one for myself and my clan.. and for other RPG lovers, i'm new in World Edit but in 1 day I maked a character selection, hero respawn and mobs respawn, also I maked a system when your hero die your food remain 1/1 because a bug was when you die you can pick up another hero and your food was like 2/1 . Now, i want to know how can i edit EXACT VALUE of stats of a costum mob/hero, like hit points, mana, damage, armor, experience need for level up ( hero ), and experience give when killed ( creep ) . And also I wanted to know how can i make a Atribute Point system, like when you chat -str (number) to add to you streght number you said, of course, if you have wood, i already make when you level up to give you five wood. Thanks in advance and sorry for my bad language..

it isnt that bad, trust me. This is compared to some golden gems on this site, very very understandable(even when not compared).

You cant directly change most of these directly, but you have to fall back to hacks like giving units invisible abilities that increase their life to increase their life.

The chat thingy is rather easy, you just check if user typed something in chat with substring of -str, then you check if SubString of entered message from 1 to 4 is -str and if it is, add it. Or even better, check for -str and exact match, so if they type "hey buddy -str" it wont actually level it up

Can you create in trigger editor and show me a photo please? I don't understand exactly, i've made something in trigger but i don't think is good

• Level UP Lumber
  • Events
    • Unit - A unit owned by Player 1 (Red) Gains a level
  • Conditions
    • ((Triggering unit) is A Hero) Equal to True
  • Actions
    • Player - Add 5 to (Triggering player) Current lumber

This is atr points and for str is like that but i don't know how to make it work..

• STR
  • Events
    • Player - Player 1 (Red) types a chat message containing (Substring(-str, 1, 1000)) as An exact match
  • Conditions
  • Actions

I don't find fuctions like " add player streght/agility/inteligence" .

I think it is under Hero. Something like:
"Hero - Modify attribute"

I forget the exact wording.

 

[Hydrax1231]

Ohh, but first is good? Event is good ?

• STR Copy
  • Events
    • Player - Player 1 (Red) types a chat message containing (Substring(-str, 1, 1000)) as An exact match
  • Conditions
  • Actions
    • Hero - Modify Strength of (Matching unit): Add (Key (Load 1 of 1000 from (Last created hashtable)))

Look, i try this but it doesn't work.. and i'm not sure why :

 

[edo494]

your event is wrong, it shouldnt say Substring(-str, 1, 1000) but just -str(value, you can enter it at the bottom).

The action you are looking for is under Hero - Modify Attribute I believe(its for sure under hero)

 

[Hydrax1231]

Can you make me please a trigger and put it here ?

PS: Look what I make.. again don't work ..

• STR Copy
  • Events
    • Player - Player 1 (Red) types a chat message containing -str as An exact match
  • Conditions
  • Actions
    • Hero - Modify Strength of (Matching unit): Add 5

 

[edo494]

that is because there is no matching unit. If you select the unit properly it will work like wonders.

Matching unit can only be used inside the block where you do "For every unit matching condition XXX", only inside XXX will Matching unit actually be some unit, otherwise its no unit.

You have to store the unit in variable for that

 

[Hydrax1231]

Hmm, but if I put a condition ?

And can you please explain me how the stats work ?

Change the Matching unit to Triggering Unit, it's an Event Response, just like it's name says - it responds to the Events (Casting Unit when a unit is casting a spell, Dying Unit when a unit dies etc.). If a unit/player does anything that isn't available as a specific Event Response, use Triggering Unit/Player.

HP + MP is a little bit harder but still very possible.

One way is to use positive or negative powerup books. (I thought there was a fix for the golden special effect that is left on the ground.)
But I rather like the idea of changing it directly.

BonusMod uses the item health and item mana bonus abilities which can be abused by leveling them to gain or remove maximum health and mana.
It is also an easy way to change damage or armor.

• Modify attribute
  • Events
    • Player - Player 1 (Red) types a chat message containing -str as A substring
  • Conditions
  • Actions
    • Set Substring_Strength = (Substring((Entered chat string), 5, (Length of (Entered chat string))))
    • Set Player_Hero_Integer = (Player number of (Triggering player))
    • Hero - Modify Strength of Player_Hero[Player_Hero_Integer]: Add 5

You should try to use the Substring_Strength (which should be a TempVariable) in the "Hero - Modify <attribute> of <unit>"
