[Spell] Need help with this spell to give chance to damage enemies...

[Dinodin]

I have a spell in my map that damages enemy units affected by the spell if they cast a spell but I want it to instead have 50% chance to damage enemy units with the buff if they casts a spell. How can I make that?

• Darkness lvl1
  • Events
    • Unit - A unit Starts the effect of an ability
  • Conditions
    • ((Casting unit) has buff Perpetual Darkness ) Equal to True
  • Actions
    • Unit - Create 1 Er-Murâzor (Darkness) for (Owner of Er-Murâzor 0260 <gen>) at (Position of (Triggering unit)) facing Default building facing degrees
    • Special Effect - Create a special effect attached to the origin of (Casting unit) using doombolttarget.mdx
    • Unit - Cause (Last created unit) to damage (Triggering unit), dealing 175.00 damage of attack type Spells and damage type Magic
    • Unit - Add a 2.00 second Generic expiration timer to (Last created unit)

add this to the beginning of your actions:

set variable randnum = random real between 1 and 0.

If, then else multilple actions:

condition:
randnum > 0.5

then:

move all your actions to here

Sry I don't really get how you mean? Maybe you can make up and post the triggers?

I'd be happy to, but it might be a while before I have time to open the world editor.

You can also add this to your Conditions:

• (Random integer number between 1 and 100) Less than or equal to 50

Oh please can't you give it a try? I can send u my map if you want to edit the triggers in it... I don't really get how I should do and I'm kinda noobish at triggerings :-/

 

[Cheshire]

what Riki sent here is just as good...

@Dinodin the text after and including "//" is just to explain where to find things and how they're called, not a part of the trigger

• Actions
  • If (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions) // Action -> If / Then / Else, Multiple Functions
    • If - Conditions
      • (Random integer number between 1 and 100) Less than or equal to 50 // Integer Comparison -> Function: Math - Random Number
    • Then - Actions
      • -------- Move all your actions here --------
    • Else - Actions

^That's the option with the If/Then/Else block, but as Riki said, you can skip this block entirely and just put this condition in the conditions part of the trigger, like this:

• Conditions
  • (Random integer number between 1 and 100) Less than or equal to 50
  • ((Casting unit) has buff Perpetual Darkness ) Equal to True
• Actions
  • Unit - Create 1 Er-Murâzor (Darkness) for (Owner of Er-Murâzor 0260 <gen>) at (Position of (Triggering unit)) facing Default building facing degrees
  • Special Effect - Create a special effect attached to the origin of (Casting unit) using doombolttarget.mdx
  • Unit - Cause (Last created unit) to damage (Triggering unit), dealing 175.00 damage of attack type Spells and damage type Magic
  • Unit - Add a 2.00 second Generic expiration timer to (Last created unit)

Feel free to pick whichever one you like more.

Oh I thought it was more complicated than that! Thanks for helping!
