Large Integers for Damage, Health, Hero Stats

[DarK.DooM]

Sorry if someone has already asked this question but I searched and could not find any related threads...

How do you create an integer higher than 99,999 for Damage, HP, MP, Hero Stats etc. for a unit or item?

Thanks.

By making an integer. Integers have a max of something like 2^32, far above 99,999. Damage and stuff above 99999 is quite impossible as far as I know in the WC3 engine, althougha custom damage system could negate that.

But lets be serious here. Why would you want higher? Just divide the damage of everything in your map by 10 if it has to go over.

Are you talking about object editor? Select the data field, hit Shift + Enter and enter the value.

I believe WC3 uses 64 bit variables for damage and stuff. Look at the new CoT PoM map and you will see that good heroes deal damages like 10 to the power of 10 or greater.

Yeah I am talking about for Custom Maps like Twilight RPG and SOL RPG. I want to make heroes and units do high amounts of damage, have high amount of mana, stuff like that.

How do I do that??

if you cannot do it via the Object editor maybe you can with triggers.

Ok but specifically how? I don't know much about Triggers or Object Editing... I only want to do the same thing that I have seen in the RPG maps

Try shift+clicking the values into the object editor. That typically allows you to go beyond the normal values. If this doesn't work...

You will need to store values for mana and health in a hashtable, and trigger all the damage. It's a complicated system, yes, and it will require a rework of all your current spells, attacks, etc. If you aren't a pro triggerrer, i don't suggest you try this.
