Mana using like ammo

[MACREADY]

I dont know how to use mana as ammo if you have ammo in your inventory after you killed all your mana 0 and you will need use ammo and mana now full again how to do that?

I can't understand what you are saying, it's fairly bad explained, but I think what you want to do is make a unit waste mana whenever it attacks.

Basically, create a hidden spellbook with the 'Searing Arrows' ability in it. Then set the manacost of Searing Arrows to the mana you want wasted per shot, set the additional damage to 0, and change the missile art to that of your unit. Also, do not forget to set that the unit should have the spell on autocast by default.

Then, simply make that ammo which you'd need to reload a mana potion, so it has the same effect. To prevent units from attacking while they have no ammo, use:

• Events
  • Unit - A Unit is being attacked
• Conditions
  • Mana of (Attacking Unit) is less than 1
• Actions
  • Unit - Order (Attacking Unit) to stop

OR set the damage to 0 and set that attacking using damage uses mana

I mean if my marine open fire he lost mana and if mana goes to zero he cant attack

MACREADY, actually read my post, I described clearly how to do such a thing.

• Events
  • Unit - A Unit is being attacked
• Conditions
  • Mana of (Attacking unit) > 0
• Actions
  • Unit - Set mana of (Attacking unit) to mana of (Attacking unit) -1

• Events
• Unit - A Unit is being attacked
• Conditions
  • Mana of (Attacking Unit) < 1
• Actions
  • Unit - Order (Attacking Unit) to stop

Real Comparison -> Unit - Property ->then you have to change that value to "mana" of attacking unit.

Yeah but he lost all mana if i order to attack someone. Can you give me map primer?

 

[MACREADY]

"Unit - Set mana of (Attacking unit) to mana of (Attacking unit) -1" I cant put -1 number it wont write there :S
