huuuuuuuuuuuuuuum, cool
how
is the title name of this action?

  • Unit - Set life of (Target unit of ability being cast) to ((Life of (Target unit of ability being cast)) - (Real((Strength of Firelord 0060 <gen> (Exclude bonuses)))))
:grin:


"Unit - Set life (To Value)"

(Real((Strength of Firelord 0060 <gen> (Exclude bonuses)))) is "Conversion - Convert Integer to Real"

I advise against using that.

It will cause bugs, including not crediting the actual killer and causing death based events to return the incorrect killer. Also it will not trigger damage based events thus will also bug them.

Rather use the actions / natives to get a unit to instantly inflict damage to another unit as that allows quantity but also lets the damage get reduced by armor or spell resistance or immunity as well as crediting the killing unit correctly.

Why must it be so complicated?
Just use
Unit - Damage Target
Cause (Your Unit) to deal (GetUnitStrenght(IncludeBonus), YourUnit) to (Target Unit Of Ability Being Cast)

Using set hp to value will ignore the unit's armor and others.

I know using set hp wasn't the best thing to use, but i couldn't find 'Unit - Damage Target' last night, i probaly shouldn't be at forums when to tired..

Please have a look at a gui tutorial...

Here we go:
  • Unit Group - Pick every unit in (Units within 512.00 of (Position of (Triggering unit))) and do (Actions)
    • Loop - Actions
And in that loop you put the action i gave you in the last post....

IMPORTANT: Change the "Units withing >512<" to the range of your warstomp...

This should SOLVE this problem....

  • New Trigger
    • Events
      • Unit - A unit Begins casting an ability
    • Conditions
      • (Ability being cast) Equal to (Your warstomp)
    • Actions
      • Unit Group - Pick every unit in (Units within 512.00 of (Position of (Triggering unit))) and do (Actions)
        • Loop - Actions
          • Unit - Cause (Triggering unit) to damage (Picked unit), dealing (Real((Agility of (Triggering unit) (Exclude bonuses)))) damage of attack type Spells and damage type Normal

Lets start in the beginning:

There are several types of variables. The common onces used in every program language
(C, c#, c++, visual basic...) are:

Boolean: A variable which can be either TRUE or FALSE.
Integer: Just a number.. like 1 or 10 or 1002123
BUT there is a limit.. Integer are not able to save infinite numbers...
String: A row of signs (sorry for my bad english)
Can be a word or just some letters... like a or abc or Haha or idiot... (this whole post is one big string)

In the World editor there are some other variables:

real: real is similar to Integer but saves things which are used in the game.. (at least it seems to me like that).
For example: Distance, Flying height, damage....

The Problem now is that the attributs of the heros (strength, agility, intelligence) or saved as Integers...

The damage the ability is meant to deal MUST be a real... for that there are conversions:

Some examples:

Convert String to Integer (takes a string like a chat message and makes a number out of it)
Convert real/Integer to String (if you want to give out any number or real as a chat message you must first convert it)

AND Convert Integer to real (an integer is taken and given out as a real)

That's important for you because the attribut Integer must be converted into a realto be dealt as damage...

^^ quite long post... would be glad if I get rep for it :xxd:

I hope it helped

one peaple talk to me this:

  • agility
  • Events
  • Unit - A unit Starts the effect of an ability
  • Conditions
  • (Ability being cast) Equal to War Stomp
  • Actions
  • Set WarStomp = (Position of (Casting unit))
  • Custom script: set bj_wantDestroyGroup = true
  • Unit Group - Pick every unit in (Units within 350.00 of WarStomp matching ((((Matching unit) is A structure) Equal to False) and ((((Matching unit) belongs to an enemy of (Owner of (Casting unit))) Equal to True) and (((Matching unit) is alive) Equal to True)))) and do (Actions)
  • Loop - Actions
  • Unit - Cause (Casting unit) to damage (Picked unit), dealing ((Real((Level of War Stomp for (Casting unit)))) x (Real((Agility of (Casting unit) (Include bonuses))))) damage of attack type Spells and damage type Normal

BUT HOW I MAKE TO THE SPELL DON'T AFECT MY UNIT TO?

And here we go again^^:

In the loop where you pick every unit in range. Add an IF to that loop which checks whether the
-owner of the picked unit is an enemie of owner of casting unit.

I have no worldeditor here at the moment but I think you can find the condition yourself.

But if not... tell me.. then i give you the trigger tomorrow

i would beleive ur looking for this

  • Unit Group - Pick every unit in (Units within 512.00 of Temp_Point matching (((Picked unit) belongs to an enemy of (Triggering player)) Equal to True)) and do (Actions)
    • Loop - Actions

unit group -> units in range matching condition -> boolean comparison -> Unit- Unit belongs to an enemy of player

that will make sure you are damaging only enemy units
