How to add attack type condition?

[Asuna Tichondrius]

I was trying to get the "Hero" attack type but i didnt know the reference to do that instead it will summon so many footman even not "Hero-attack type"

For this kind of stuff, is better using this: Damage Engine 5.A.0.0

As Herly said, you need Bribe's DDS (Damage Detection System).

I'm going to assume you're on the latest WC3 patch since the latest version of Bribe's DDS will require that. Be sure to enable JassHelper and vJass first in your Trigger Editor before installing this mod.

You used the wrong condition

• Damage
  • Events
    • Unit - A unit Takes damage
  • Conditions
    • (Damage From Normal Attack) Equal to True
    • (Unit: (Damage source)'s Weapon Integer Field: Attack Attack Type ('ua1t') at Index:0) Equal to 6
  • Actions
    • Unit - Create 1 Footman for Player 1 (Red) at (Position of (Triggering unit)) facing Default building facing degrees

This works without need for a DDS, the damage type check is an integer condition and 6 is hero type

I suggested the DDS, because it can directly give you the condition that "damage taken was type hero" and more, instead of searching if "the damage of the weapon of the source is type hero", which probably could lead you to undisired results, but I'm not sure what is your map about.
