Percentage Life Buff

[Ashkandi]

Hey, after over an hour of trying I've resorted to getting help from you guys

I'm trying to figure out how to make an ability (an aura to be specific) that increases maximum health by a percentage. Any idea how I can do this?

 

[Garfield1337]

Elaborate more.
Whose HP you want increased? Caster's or the ones affected by aura?
If only caster's,why is it aura? If the ones affected by aura,what happens when they lose the aura buff,do they lose that bonus HP?

 

[Ashkandi]

Everyone whos affected by the aura, the caster doesnt even really matter. And the caster isnt able to be attacked in the map

 

[Garfield1337]

Ok,let me get this straight:
You want aura that raises maximum hitpoints of any unit (Allied units i guess) that comes in range of aura and loses the hitpoints it gained when it loses aura buff (When it goes away from aura's caster).
Right?

 

[Ashkandi]

Yeah, but the aura will cover the whole map

...Is what I just said really stupid, or are you just not responding

• HP Aura
  • Events
    • Unit - A unit Learns a skill
  • Conditions
    • (Learned Hero Skill) Equal to HP Aura
  • Actions
    • Player - Set the current research level of HP to 1 for (Owner of (Triggering unit))

The "HP" upgrade is an upgrade with "Hitpoints Bonus %" effect,just set for how much procents will health increase and set units affected by upgrade.
Also the HP aura is just a dummy aura with no effect.

EDIT:

...Is what I just said really stupid, or are you just not responding

Haha...no,i was just thinking how to do it

 

[Ashkandi]

Thanks

 

[Ashkandi]

Its not working for me. A building is what is supposed to have the aura, and its not player controlled so I think "Learns a skill" might be whats causing it not to work.

To give you a better understanding, the map is supposed to have difficulty settings, and if the harder difficulty setting is selected, then all enemy (computer controlled) units have higher health and damage. I've made the damage aura and it works, but health, as you know, is something I need to complete. I probably should have told you this from the start

if you want to change max hp of ALL units owned by a specified player you can change handicap

 

[Garfield1337]

Oh,i didn't know you wanted it that way.
Well,just change event,when you pick difficulty,put the action like this:

• Player - Set the current research level of HP to 1 for //player who controls creeps

and set the level of research appropriate to difficulty,the harder it is,the greater the level.

Researches cant be changed backwards so i dont think thats a good solution you should either add abilities to entering units and remove them from leaving units

 

[Garfield1337]

Depends,if difficulty can be changed ingame,then you're right,if not,then my solution is ok.

 

[Axarion]

You mean a players handicap? Thats changeable i think but it will work for all units of a player only like your solution^^

 

[Ashkandi]

Works amazingly

One more thing though, how do I make a trigger that doesnt allow you to select another mode once a mode has been selected and how do you add a trigger condition of owning a hero?

Thanks

 

[Garfield1337]

To disallow 2 modes to be selected,just add function

• Trigger - Turn off (This trigger)

at the end of your mode choosing trigger.
About condition of owning a hero,i'm not sure what you mean,but i guess you want something like this:

• (Owner of (Triggering unit)) Equal to Player 1 (Red)

It's a "player" type of condition.

 

[Ashkandi]

k, also one more thing; how do i change constant camera distance (and have it acting as a constant or something so as nothing can interfere with it)?

 

[Garfield1337]

• Camera
  • Events
    • Time - Every 0.03 seconds of game time
  • Conditions
  • Actions
    • Player Group - Pick every player in (All players) and do (Actions)
      • Loop - Actions
        • Camera - Set (Picked player)'s camera Distance to target to 1000.00 over 0.00 seconds

I guess this is what you want.
