I dont think so

I think you will have to make a dummy unit attack those that are ranged(or just deal Damage, but this can be imbalanced in some occasions)

 

[Need_O2]

no no just make ranged units attack type normal NOT DAMAGE type attack type it must be missle and make it normal ok ?

 

[Amish_KOTP]

No, its only with melee attack not normal attack...I highly doubt that would work...then again its worth a try but yeah...

the meele attack is normal attack already I dont mean damage type well in WE when you look at a ranged unit in object editor you will see its attack type is Missle make it normal [there are None-Normal-Missle-Missle(splash)-Missle(bounce)-Artillery-Artillery(line) may be more things that I forgot] got it ?

well sorry I forgot to tell if you are gonna use another ability with it that doesnt affect ranged units yea you must use dummy attacker

that is one big word you are using there you know

 

[Need_O2]

yea right sorry may be something like any unit takes damage jass trigger (looking for one) unit damage GetTriggerUnit GetDamageSource (or I dont remember what is it) damage by (damage done calculated in trigger)/10 etc etc :/
And Im not so pro unlike what goes in my messages just acting like
Sorry again

JASS is not needed for this, even though you might think so

 

[PurplePoot]

It is if you don't like leaks.

 

[Razorbrain]

the only leak that can be found in a GUI trigger like this would be 1 Unit Group, which would ruin the game if it was destroyed, so :S

 

[PurplePoot]

You're adding events that are never removed.

 

[Razorbrain]

yes, but I only add the events to 1 Unit for 1 Time only, which we need the 1 unit group for, which would ruin the game if it was destroyed

 

[PurplePoot]

Even if you do, then if the unit dies its event stays.

 

[Need_O2]

Razor start learning jass
Its easier than you think trust me
and TOO EASY if you used another language uses variables etc before
(I used GML game maker language )

 

[Razorbrain]

maybe i like things being complicated?

 

[Need_O2]

sure I wont say anything againts it but its Jass is a good knowladge
anyway do as you to be really it doesnt concern me anyway lol
Like Vergil said "Thats none of my concern !"
