Tower with passive spells

[Rykon-V73]

I'm trying to locate an orc tower that is suited well. It should have a 20% chance to launch a chain lightning that attack enemies. I'm talking about that tower. I don't think I can make that one, since I'm a beginner here.

Of course, you can. Just take it slowly. There are two ways that come to my mind to achieve your goal. One is with trigger, the other one is with object editor trick. Since trigger can be quite complicated for beginners, let's try object editor trick instead. You can learn such method here. Though, I'm not sure either if that will work on building but trying won't hurt. Just set the chain lightning cooldown to zero and follow the instructions from the tutorial.

Good luck.

It works on buildings, however the player must right-click their enemies. For some reason, auto-attack does not trigger it.

You can force it to work with auto attack via triggers. Triggered attack orders will proc orb effects.

Here's an example trigger from one of my maps:

• Orb Attacks Fix
  • Events
    • Unit - A unit Is attacked
  • Conditions
    • Or - Any (Conditions) are true
      • Conditions
        • (Level of Frost Attack for (Attacking unit)) Greater than or equal to 1
        • (Level of Shockwave Attack for (Attacking unit)) Greater than or equal to 1
  • Actions
    • Trigger - Turn off (This trigger)
    • Unit - Order (Attacking unit) to Attack (Attacked unit)
    • Trigger - Turn on (This trigger)

Looking at the code above, the editor wants me to select a unit. Does it have to be any unit?

 

[BloodSoul]

Huh? No, it's the function list, below that Select Unit button.

 

[Rykon-V73]

Where did you find the 'Level of spell for...' option anyway? I'm really a beginner.

Conditions -> Integer Comparison -> Unit - Level Of Ability For Unit
