Modifying Basic Attack Stat Based on Missing Health

[Devalut]

As it says on the tin, or more in depth:
Unit gains 0.15/0.20/0.25/0.30/0.35 damage per 1% health missing

I've tried modifying Item - Attack Damage Bonus (Claws of Attack) & Item Permanent Damage Bonus - (Tome) using the Ability Modifer Natives, Ex:

Spoiler

• Ability - Set Ability: (Unit: (Picked unit)'s Ability with Ability Code: Item Permanent Damage Gain )'s Integer Level Field: Attack Modification ('Iaa1') of Level: 0 to X
• Ability - Set Ability: (Unit: (Picked unit)'s Ability with Ability Code: Item Damage Bonus (+1))'s Integer Level Field: Attack Bonus ('Iatt') of Level: 0 to X

No dice!

Working directly with the unit's base attack does work, however that brings the problem of needing to trigger any form of damage increments.

Lastly I'd like to avoid spamming +100 levels or separate copies of Item damage bonus with varying levels.

Please & Thank you!

Try refreshing the ability. increase its level and decrease it back right away. Or disable it and re-enable it back. If those don't work, try adding a 0.00 second wait before the refresh.

Wow, all this time I was wondering why this wouldn't work. Refreshing the ability works perfectly.

• Cast Spell

    • Unit - A unit Starts the effect of an ability
  • Conditions
    • (Ability being cast) Equal to Test
  • Actions
    • Set i = (i + 1)
    • Ability - Set Ability: (Unit: (Triggering unit)'s Ability with Ability Code: Damage Bonus )'s Integer Level Field: Attack Bonus ('Iatt') of Level: 0 to i
    • Unit - Set level of Damage Bonus for (Triggering unit) to 2
    • Unit - Set level of Damage Bonus for (Triggering unit) to 1

Make sure the Damage Bonus ability has 2 levels in the Object Editor so it can increase/decrease properly.

Edit:
But how would you use this method to get Real damage bonuses? You're pretty much stuck with using Integers as far as I know.

• Set real = (real + 0.25)
• Ability - Set Ability: (Unit: (Triggering unit)'s Ability with Ability Code: Damage Bonus )'s Integer Level Field: Attack Bonus ('Iatt') of Level: 0 to (Integer(real))
• Unit - Set level of Damage Bonus for (Triggering unit) to 2
• Unit - Set level of Damage Bonus for (Triggering unit) to 1

Tested this with a Damage Engine and it doesn't appear to work.

What you could do is use this function as a way to display the current bonus damage (at least every +1) on the UI and then have a separate Real variable that is used with a DDS to calculate the true damage dealt. I uploaded a map with a working example. The UI displays +1 damage but you'll see that the unit deals 1.25, 1.50, 1.75, etc... damage.

I was toiling over why the flipping thing wouldn't work!
Nice job you two!
