Quick question about the right trigger..

[RaedoN]

Hello Hive!

I was just about to create a simple auto-cast spell (based on Searing Arrows) for a ranged hero that deals random bonus damage as the projectile reaches the target. Then I couldn't really think of what event and condition to use. I've implemented Weep's http://www.hiveworkshop.com/forums/...8/?prev=search=damage%20detection&d=list&r=20 in my map.

What event/s and condition/s should I use?

• Trigger
  • Events
    • Unit - A unit Starts the effect of an ability
  • Conditions
    • (Ability being cast) Equal to [your ability]
  • Actions

To detect if auto-cast is on:

• get unit
• Events
  • Unit - A unit is issued an order with no target
• Conditions
• Actions
  • If (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions)
    • If - Conditions
      • (Issued order) Equal to (Order(flamingarrows))
    • Then - Actions
      • Unit Group - Add (Triggering unit) to BonusGrp
    • Else - Actions
      • If (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions)
        • If - Conditions
          • (Issued order) Equal to (Order(unflamingarrows))
        • Then - Actions
          • Unit Group - Remove (Triggering unit) from BonusGrp
        • Else - Actions

Now, just check if unit is in group to run actions:

• call bonus
  • Events
    • Game - GDD_Event becomes Equal to 0.00
  • Conditions
    • (GDD_DamageSource is in BonusGrp) Equal to True
  • Actions
    • // your stuff here

this...

• bonusdam
  • Events
    • Game - GDD_Event becomes Equal to 0.00
  • Conditions
    • (Level of Searing Arrows for GDD_DamageSource) Greater than 0
  • Actions
    • Trigger - Turn off (This trigger)
    • Custom script: if GetUnitCurrentOrder(udg_GDD_DamageSource)==852173 then
    • Set bonusdam = (GDD_Damage x 1000.00)
    • Unit - Cause GDD_DamageSource to damage GDD_DamagedUnit, dealing bonusdam damage of attack type Spells and damage type Normal
    • Custom script: endif
    • Trigger - Turn on (This trigger)
