Thorns spell

[wiikj]

Hey, i was wondering how do you make it so that Thorns can affect Ranged units too?

 

[Dr Super Good]

I do not think you can.
Check some of the data options like game play constants if anything it will be in there if not in the object editor.

i mean like in DotA where you take damage when you attack Centaur Warchief from his spell "Return"

 

[spiwn]

It is triggered.
A unit is attacked event, checking level of ability of attacked unit. Then damaging the attacking unit.
Nothing special
And yes it damages you before you shoot

sounds nice, how do i get "checking level of ability of attacked unit" in trigger editor under conditions? and "Then damaging the attacking unit" under actions? lol sorry im a trigger noob

Its an integer

• Return
  • Events
    • Unit - A unit Is attacked
  • Conditions
    • (Unit-type of (Attacked unit)) Equal to Centaur
  • Actions
    • If (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions)
      • If - Conditions
        • (Level of Return for (Attacked unit)) Equal to 0
      • Then - Actions
        • Do nothing
      • Else - Actions
    • If (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions)
      • If - Conditions
        • (Level of Return for (Attacked unit)) Greater than 0
      • Then - Actions
        • Unit - Cause (Attacked unit) to damage (Attacking unit), dealing (5.00 x (Real((Level of Return for (Attacked unit))))) damage of attack type Spells and damage type Normal
      • Else - Actions

This will fail.
First of all you do not need Do Nothing (you guys just never get that, do you ?), and the second thing - you do need even need the first if statement.

Instead of your main condition (unit type) change that to "level of x greater then 0".

• bla bla
  • unit gets attacked bla bla
  • level of ability x is greater then 0 bla bla
  • dmg bla bla

thanks but how do i make it into a item ability? it only works for a unit ability as in trigger "Centaur"

 

[Squiggy]

Make an item and check if the unit has this item. If so, fire the trigger ^^

You left out a not. Fixed for you

 

[Need_O2]

you can make ranged units attack normal so they will attack from a range but it will act like meele attack (but they will be included in vampric aura too)

 

[spiwn]

• Return
  • Events
    • Unit - A unit Is attacked
  • Conditions
    • (Level of Return for (Attacked unit)) Greater than 0
  • Actions
    • Unit - Cause (Attacked unit) to damage (Attacking unit), dealing (5.00 x (Real((Level of Return for (Attacked unit))))) damage of attack type Spells and damage type Normal

This will do...

 

[wiikj]

how do you get (5.00 x (Real((Level of Return for (Attacked unit))))) under Actions?

 

[Kwah]

What about attack stop spamming?

 

[spiwn]

He asked for "Return" from Dota.
Here it is.
To prevent the abusing an attack detection engine would be required.
There is one here

 

[Kwah]

Good job, Spwin!

 

[spiwn]

Good job, Spwin!

Wrong
Nick, and about this being a good job.
It just ain't that good
