[CreatorD3292]

can anyone explain a simple way to use nes dds. i plan make passive skill on hit but i can't understand how to use nes dds. i'm very graceful if someone make a simple trigger passive skill on hit for a example.

scope DDSTest

    private struct Test extends array
        private static integer PRIORITY = 10
        private static string FX        = "Abilities\\Spells\\Human\\Thunderclap\\ThunderClapCaster.mdl"
        
        private static method onDamage takes nothing returns nothing    
            if GetRandomInt(0, 2) == 0 and archetype == Archetype.PHYSICAL then
                set damage = damage * 1.75          // Modify damage by 1.75
                call DestroyEffect(AddSpecialEffect(FX, GetUnitX(target), GetUnitY(target)))
                call ArcingTextTag.create(R2S(damageOriginal) + "+" + R2S(damageModifiedAmount), target)
            else
                call ArcingTextTag.create(R2S(damage), target)
            endif
        endmethod
        
        implement DDS
    endstruct
    
endscope

here's an example 33% chance to create thunderclap effect and deal extra damage
I'm not sure how much you understand about Nes' DDS - but just incase you didn't know, it requires:
-structs
-static methods inside the struct specifically called 'onDamage'
-'implement DDS' inside the struct

i'm sure the man himself will come to explain indepth on how to use it...

PRIORITY integer just sets ordering of damage events, the higher it is, the faster up in line it is run.

i think he makes most of this clear in his guide :O

I believe Nes' DDS was made for Vjass Usage?

Yea, it sounds like you want GUI. DDS has no GUI support and will not have any GUI support in the future. The reason for this is because there is no good way to support some of the features in GUI, like damageOriginal and damageModifiedAmount.

lfh's thing has GUI support and many of the same features as DDS. It won't run as well and doesn't have absolutely everything, but it should probably be enough for what you want.

oh thanks.

There are 2 DDS that might almost simulate Nes' DDS in GUI.
