Ignoring damage on specific unit

[sethmachine]

Hi,

I have tried to write a trigger that basically heals a unit whenever it is damaged for the damage it received.

The trigger sort of works, but for some reason it lets the unit take damage from the first hit of an attacker, then afterwards works correctly.

Thus if a unit hit it for 20 damage, it would have 80/100 health, but then after all attacks would be healed.

	static method damageMain takes nothing returns boolean
		local unit u = GetTriggerUnit()
	        call print("healed damage")
		call SetUnitState(u, UNIT_STATE_LIFE, GetUnitState(u, UNIT_STATE_LIFE) + GetEventDamage())
		set u = null
		return false
	endmethod
	
	method setInvuln takes nothing returns nothing
		set invulnTrig = CreateTrigger()
		call TriggerAddCondition(invulnTrig, Condition(function A.damageMain))
		call TriggerRegisterUnitEvent(invulnTrig, u, EVENT_UNIT_DAMAGED)
	endmethod

This is a WC 3 bug, just add a 99k health ability then remove it after u heal the unit.

Does it also not work when you use TriggerAddAction? Also use GetWidgetLife(u).

I would not call it a bug, rather a nice feature. When the trigger fires on a EVENT_UNIT_DAMAGED, its actually before the damage is done.

Dat-C3s solution is not optimal and may lead to bugs. If you want a post-heal instead of a pre-heal, a 0.00 timer will do.

Most damage detection systems have a bonus +50000 hp ability that they use to prevent that damage.
