Trigger fails to work.

[SpasMaster]

Hello guys! There I am, making a Lifesteal trigger for my map. Lifesteal should heal the hero for a % of any damage dealt. I make my triggers, but neither the hero gets healed, nor a text message appears.

I'm about to post the triggers, but before that I will explain the variables:

•Lifesteal_Amount - The amount of lifesteal provided by items as a stat.
•Lifesteal_Heal - The amount of health restored by Lifesteal_Amount.

Triggers

Help will be appreciated and rewarded with rep.

In this calculation:

• Set Lifesteal_Heal[Lifesteal_Player] = ((Integer(Lifesteal_Amount[Lifesteal_Player])) x (Integer((Damage taken))))

You are losing accuracy.
Instead, you should first multiply Lifesteal_Amount by Damage taken, and then convert to integer.

Currently, anything below 1 (100%) lifesteal is converted to an integer - which becomes 0.

Thanks, it works now, but another problem appeared. I am (Player 1) the only player that gets healed. :/

I think that the system as it is should cause players 2,3,5,6 and 7 to also benefit from it.

Note: Triggers have been updated with the fix.

I don't see any further errors.

In your Lifesteal trigger, use Game - Display message to display Lifesteal_Player, Lifesteal_Heal etc.

You mean that this is MUI? I am not really sure, but MUI means that a trigger works for more than 1 player, right. What I currently want to achieve..

But it doesn't work for others aside from me, sadly :/

MUI = works for multiple units
MPI = works for multiple players

Judging by your triggers, it should work for more than one player.

The reason I suggested that you display game messages is to see if the values are being set properly, so that we can narrow down where exactly the error is.

This helped indeed. The problem was that I modified the other heroes inventories in the world editor, but as you can see in the trigger Reapers Sword Acc, the unit must accquire the item in order to get its Lifesteal_Amount modification. That was it. Thanks for your help, +rep!
