[Trigger] how to detect when destructible is attacked?

[oxxo]

i cant believe there is no such function! what the hell???

please say it is possible and easy to be done . . . . .

i dont know shit about jass would hate to have to recurr to it.

also how can you referr to the attack destructible?
is there such a thing as "triggering destructible" ?

All you need to do is:

• Events
  • Map Initalization
• Conditions
  • Destructible Type ((Destructible equal to NAME)
• Actions
  • If all things are true blah blah blah.
    • If Conditions
      • Destructible Health equals to equal or lower than 1 Less then Excact Hp!
    • Then Actions
      • Game - Automaticly timed message for all Players: DESTRUCTIBLES IS BEING ATTACKED!
    • Else Actions
      • Do Nothing

What ???? Slaydon NO !!! Just Replace the MAP INTI wit EVERY 0.10 second ( TIMER )Also remove the Do nothing it waste preformance !!

 

[Slaydon]

w00t? lol Why Evry 0.10 Second?

 

[Rmx]

Coz in the MAP INTI u just wasted the action nothing hapened MAP INTI means loading the map so no 1 can attack it's like 0.0000001 then stops . but cheking if the trees have their health damaged every 0.10 seconds would work and not stop .... TRY IT URSELF MAN !!!!

Because the way you have it, the trigger only fires at the beginning of the game, and that's it. Event determines WHEN the trigger executes.

There is another way. You could use the event

• Unit - A unit Is issued an order targeting an object

and then you add this:

• Actions
  • Set Destr = (Target destructible of issued order)
  • Custom script: if udg_Destr != null then
  • Custom script: endif
  • Custom script: set udg_Destr = null

Remember to put your actions between the two custom scripts "if udg_Destr != null then" and "endif".

Like this:

• Events
  • Unit - A unit Is issued an order targeting an object
• Conditions
• Actions
  • Set Destr = (Target destructible of issued order)
  • Custom script: if udg_Destr != null then
  • Game - Display to (All players) the text: A destructible is under attack!
  • Custom script: endif
  • Custom script: set udg_Destr = null

That should work (Haven't tested it)

First, what if I were to hit "Move" and then clicked on the destructible? It wouldn't be under attack, now would it?

Furthermore, that just says the destructible has been targeted, but not attacked. The OP wants something that detects when a destructible has been struck. I suggest doing what the second and third posts in this thread say.

 

[StaberFire]

Isn't there a condition checking order type? Just use that to make sure it's being attacked, not moved to.

 

[Soga-]

Again, that just says the destructible was targeted. What if my unit was on the opposite side of the map and I ordered it to attack the destructible?

 

[The Reborn Devil]

Check if the unit is close enough?

 

[oxxo]

thanks alot everyone for your inputs!

both methods would probably work, even the one that fires upon "targeting" of the destructible. gonna try out wich one is more effective.

Rep-maniac ^^

But Soga- is probably right, you can target a destructible from the other side of the map, and the, when you check distance, it is NOT fired, but the unit can still walk to it, and attack it AFTER,,
So the 'every 0.10 secs' thing is probably the best,,
