Topic: Spread Poison Damage

Q: How to make a spread poison damage in GUI.


I've seen so much of the TD's where in they have a spread poison attack where in the units attacked slows down and takes damage. I've tried but failed....

Do I need buffs for this?

Thanks in advance!

You can't add a buff to a unit through triggers; you can only remove them.

You would need an attacking dummy unit to add slow poison to the enemies.

Or use a dummy unit with Shadow Strike.

Thought I saw one when I was making a tutorial. =((

Try this:

  • Poison Damage
    • Events
      • Unit - A unit Is attacked
    • Conditions
      • ((Attacked unit) is A ground unit) Equal to True
      • (Attacking unit) Equal to Poison Cannon
    • Actions
      • Set Temp_Group = (Units within 200.00 of (Position of (Attacked unit)) matching (((Attacked unit) is A ground unit) Equal to True))
      • Unit Group - Pick every unit in Temp_Group and do (Actions)
        • Loop - Actions
          • Unit - Set (Attacked unit) movement speed to 65.00
          • Unit - Cause (Attacking unit) to damage circular area after 0.00 seconds of radius 200.00 at (Position of (Attacked unit)), dealing 100.00 damage of attack type Spells and damage type Normal
          • Wait 2.00 seconds
          • Unit - Cause (Attacking unit) to damage circular area after 0.00 seconds of radius 200.00 at (Position of (Attacked unit)), dealing 100.00 damage of attack type Spells and damage type Normal
          • Wait 2.00 seconds
          • Unit - Cause (Attacking unit) to damage circular area after 0.00 seconds of radius 200.00 at (Position of (Attacked unit)), dealing 100.00 damage of attack type Spells and damage type Normal
It slows the unit and damages them every 2 seconds.
