because you never set DeathHand_TrigUnit or DeathHand_TargetUnit....

 

[BloodDrunk]

I did.... In the setup trigger

here it is:

• DeathHand
  • Events
    • Unit - A unit Starts the effect of an ability
  • Conditions
    • (Ability being cast) Equal to Dragging to Death
  • Actions
    • Set DeathHand_TrigUnit = (Triggering unit)
    • Set DeathHand_TargetUnit = (Target unit of ability being cast)
    • Unit - Turn collision for DeathHand_TargetUnit Off
    • Trigger - Turn on DeathHand Loop <gen>
    • Trigger - Add to DeathHand Checking <gen> the event (Unit - A unit comes within 125.00 of DeathHand_TrigUnit)
    • Trigger - Turn on DeathHand Checking <gen>

Well, for starters the damage is a very minuscule amount.

30.00 / ( 100.00 * Distance ) < 1 for all values of distance that are > 0.30. That means that for you to deal at least 1 damage, the distance would have to be 0.30 units or lower. (which never happens unless the units have no pathing or are placed inside of each other) The formula you are using must be wrong. Are you sure you didn't mean to have it the other way around or something?

then, how can I make the formula to damage it for 30% of the distance moved?

You know, just like blood's rupture

30% would be 30 / 100. You want to multiply (30/100) by Distance instead of 30 / (100 * Distance). 30/100 = 0.3 Therefore you can just have 0.3 * Distance:

• Unit - Cause DeathHand_TrigUnit to damage DeathHand_TargetUnit, dealing (0.30 x (Distance between DeathHand_TargetUnitLoc and DeathHand_TrigUnitLoc)) damage of attack type Spells and damage type Normal

Then that should deal 30% of the distance between the units as damage.
