[Xzere]

Hello, as the title says, im trying to learn the trigger editor. I'm sure there is, but i dont know how i can make this trigger more simplified than this. Any tips?

• Golem Armor Stack
  • Events
    • Unit - A unit Begins casting an ability
  • Conditions
    • (Ability being cast) Equal to Eat Tree
  • Actions
    • If (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions)
      • If - Conditions
        • (Level of Eat Tree for (Triggering unit)) Equal to 1
      • Then - Actions
        • Unit - Set Armor of (Casting unit) to ((Armor of (Triggering unit)) + 1.00)
      • Else - Actions
    • If (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions)
      • If - Conditions
        • (Level of Eat Tree for (Triggering unit)) Equal to 2
      • Then - Actions
        • Unit - Set Armor of (Casting unit) to ((Armor of (Triggering unit)) + 1.00)
      • Else - Actions
    • If (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions)
      • If - Conditions
        • (Level of Eat Tree for (Triggering unit)) Equal to 3
      • Then - Actions
        • Unit - Set Armor of (Casting unit) to ((Armor of (Triggering unit)) + 1.00)
      • Else - Actions
    • If (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions)
      • If - Conditions
        • (Level of Eat Tree for (Triggering unit)) Equal to 4
      • Then - Actions
        • Unit - Set Armor of (Casting unit) to ((Armor of (Triggering unit)) + 2.00)
      • Else - Actions
    • If (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions)
      • If - Conditions
        • (Level of Eat Tree for (Triggering unit)) Equal to 5
      • Then - Actions
        • Unit - Set Armor of (Casting unit) to ((Armor of (Triggering unit)) + 2.00)
      • Else - Actions
    • If (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions)
      • If - Conditions
        • (Level of Eat Tree for (Triggering unit)) Equal to 6
      • Then - Actions
        • Unit - Set Armor of (Casting unit) to ((Armor of (Triggering unit)) + 2.00)
      • Else - Actions
    • If (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions)
      • If - Conditions
        • (Level of Eat Tree for (Triggering unit)) Equal to 7
      • Then - Actions
        • Unit - Set Armor of (Casting unit) to ((Armor of (Triggering unit)) + 3.00)
      • Else - Actions
    • If (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions)
      • If - Conditions
        • (Level of Eat Tree for (Triggering unit)) Equal to 8
      • Then - Actions
        • Unit - Set Armor of (Casting unit) to ((Armor of (Triggering unit)) + 3.00)
      • Else - Actions
    • If (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions)
      • If - Conditions
        • (Level of Eat Tree for (Triggering unit)) Equal to 9

1. use the event "starts effect of an ability"
2. you can shorten this trigger by checking if the ability level is 1-3;4-6;7-9

Could use formula:

Set armor = Armor of unit + *Convert Integer to Real*((AbilityLevel-1)/3)+1

Should look like this:

• Unit - Set Armor of (Triggering unit) to ((Armor of (Triggering unit)) + (Real(((((Level of (Ability being cast) for (Triggering unit)) - 1) / 3) + 1))))

Thank you very much man, that's much prettier than mine lol, can i do similar things if i want the damage to be increased. I.E 50+ per level?

Yeah, I don't see why you couldn't. Just put the entire integer part in a parenthesis and multiply it by 50, so it'd be like:

Set damage = Damage of unit + (*Convert Integer to Real*((AbilityLevel-1)/3)+1) x 50

If you can’t find a formula that outputs the values you want, you can also store the level values in an array:

Set SpellArmor[1] = 1.00
Set SpellArmor[2] = 1.50
Set SpellArmor[3] = 4.25
Set SpellArmor[4] = 10.00

Unit - Set armor of (Triggering Unit) you ((Armor of (Triggering Unit)) + SpellArmor[(Level of (Ability being cast) for (Triggering Unit))]

Ahh i see, that will probably be very usefull, thank you all for the help!
