Splash Damage Help

[geohoundz55]

I made a Splash Tower which has a poison ability but I got a problem that it's ability won't work unless I remove the splash damage. And also I want to increase the level of the ability base on how many times I upgrade my tower.
i.e My poison tower is upgraded 3 times so it's ability would be level 3 also.
Thanks!

If im not wrong the "Artillery" attack type prevents you from using most attack add-on abilities.(Posion etc.)

Try changing the attack type to "Missle Splash"
Or make a tower with "Missile" Type attack and give it an "Orb of Fire" ability.
the second method may not stack with Poison though.


For your second question.
Simply copy n paste the Posion skill 3 times, and give each tower the respective one.

Alternatively you can give the poison 3 levels and level it up via trigger.

another way would be to use a trigger

• Events
  • a Unit is being attacked
• Conditions
  • unit type of attacking unit equal to poison tower level1
• Actions
  • add ability to attacked unit
  • wait x seconds
  • remove ability from unit

the ability could be unholy aura with negative effects and no range/changed buffs etc., or any other you like

for frost, the splasheffect works fine.. but i don't know if its the same for poison.

 

[geohoundz55]

Is there any ways so I could add a negative buff like poison to those attacked units?

 

[Squiggy]

Don't think so - but i'd do it like UreDe4D.

 

[UreDe4D]

well i already told you to use unholy aura with negative effects, as that would be health degeneration and decreased movement, so the same thing like poison

 

[Squiggy]

Alternatively, he could use a poisonous aura that's targets are Player Units. So it'd affect only the units of the owner of the target.. umm yes ^^

use frost ability and change buffs, effects, sounds, and missle so it looks like poison.

they wont be taking damage per second unless you make a periodic trigger like

• Event
  • Time - Every 1 seconds of game time
  • Conditions
  • Actions
    • Unit Group - pick every unit in playable map area matching ((matching unit has buff "tower poison") equal to true)
      • Loop
        • Order (Your tower) to damage picked unit for (the damage of the level of your poison) damage of attak type whatever and damage type whatever
