[Trigger] Unique trigger help

[Murkatal]

• Unknown
  • Events
    • Unit - A unit Is attacked
  • Conditions
    • (Attacking unit) Equal to Your_Unit
  • Actions
    • Unit - Set life of (Attacking unit) to ((Life of (Attacking unit)) + 1.00)%

could your unit count as attacked unit or is there a way to custom put words into trigger (remember im new to this

The Condition:

• (Unit-type of (Attacking unit)) Equal to Peasant

In the trigger edit mode allows you to click on blue dialog to change different aspects of the function:

It looks like this: (Unit-type of (Triggering unit)) Equal to Footman

Unit Type of Triggering unit is one changeable segment
Equal to is another
and Footman (Your Unit, Peasant) is another.

You can change Attacking Unit or Attacked unit

If you need both then your condition would have to use the OR Multiple functions.

It would look like this:

• Vampire Life Steal
  • Events
    • Unit - A unit Is attacked
  • Conditions
    • Or - Any (Conditions) are true
      • Conditions
        • (Unit-type of (Attacked unit)) Equal to Footman
        • (Unit-type of (Attacking unit)) Equal to Footman
  • Actions

OR must be used because the Attacked and the Attacking can not be the same unit at the same time.

If you did not use OR the computer would read both conditions as an And - meaning it would expect the two conditions to be taking place at the same time.
If you want something slightly different to happen depending on if the unit is attacked or if it is the attacker then you would use the If/Then Else multiple conditions (under Multiple functions):

• Vampire Life Steal
  • Events
    • Unit - A unit Is attacked
  • Conditions
  • Actions
    • If (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions)
      • If - Conditions
        • (Unit-type of (Attacked unit)) Equal to Footman
      • Then - Actions
        • Unit - Set life of (Attacked unit) to ((Life of (Attacked unit)) + 10.00)
      • Else - Actions
    • If (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions)
      • If - Conditions
        • (Unit-type of (Attacking unit)) Equal to Footman
      • Then - Actions
        • Unit - Set life of (Attacking unit) to ((Life of (Attacking unit)) + 25.00)
      • Else - Actions

In this case if the footman is attacked he only gets 10 hit points.
If the footman attacks he gets 25 hit points.

In this case all of the conditions fall under the If/Then/Else functions/conditions.

You can set it to any unit you want, or how much HP is "taken".

You can also add to that a "drain" function. Where you would set in the Attacked part of the trigger the "set life of (attacking) unit as a minus. And in the Attacking part it would be the attacked unit that you are draining.

Did that make sense?

One more look with the new actions:

• Vampire Life Steal
  • Events
    • Unit - A unit Is attacked
  • Conditions
    • Or - Any (Conditions) are true
      • Conditions
        • (Unit-type of (Attacking unit)) Equal to Footman
  • Actions
    • If (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions)
      • If - Conditions
        • (Unit-type of (Attacked unit)) Equal to Footman
      • Then - Actions
        • Unit - Set life of (Attacked unit) to ((Life of (Attacked unit)) + 10.00)
        • Unit - Set life of (Attacking unit) to ((Life of (Attacking unit)) - 10.00)
      • Else - Actions
    • If (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions)
      • If - Conditions
        • (Unit-type of (Attacking unit)) Equal to Footman
      • Then - Actions
        • Unit - Set life of (Attacking unit) to ((Life of (Attacking unit)) + 25.00)
        • Unit - Set life of (Attacked unit) to ((Life of (Attacked unit)) - 25.00)
      • Else - Actions

In essence your vampiric unit (that gains life from an attack or when attacked) "drains" life from the enemy unit.
