What the EFFFF

[Ghost765]

Ok, i've got an ability that turns u invisible everytime u activate it (based on defend), it also drains 8 mana per second

i've got this:

• Untitled Trigger 001
  • Events
    • Unit - A unit Is issued an order with no target
  • Conditions
    • (Issued order) Equal to (Order(defend))
    • (Level of Camouflage (Real) for (Triggering unit)) Greater than 0
  • Actions
    • Unit Group - Add (Triggering unit) to CamoGroup
    • Unit - Add CamoSpellbook to (Triggering unit)

• Untitled Trigger 002
  • Events
    • Unit - A unit Is issued an order with no target
  • Conditions
    • (Issued order) Equal to (Order(undefend))
    • (Level of Camouflage (Real) for (Triggering unit)) Greater than 0
  • Actions
    • Unit Group - Remove (Triggering unit) from CamoGroup
    • Unit - Remove CamoSpellbook from (Triggering unit)

• Untitled Trigger 003
  • Events
    • Time - Every 1.00 seconds of game time
  • Conditions
    • (Number of units in CamoGroup) Greater than 0
  • Actions
    • Unit Group - Pick every unit in CamoGroup and do (Unit - Set mana of (Picked unit) to ((Mana of (Picked unit)) - 8.00))

i have one other trigger, and it's to remove the unit if it doesnt have enough mana, but thats not part of the problem, guaranteed.

Ok, whenever i activate Camouflage, it instantly sets my mana to 0, and THEN it starts the -8 mana thing. help me please

Try to remove the condition from Untitled Trigger 003 and see what it happens.

still mana is set to 0 when he activates defend.

Just add a brilliance aura (edited) or a item mana regeneration (edited) (better) to do the drain.

Can a unit be in a group more than once?

Could it be that the unit is added more than one time and so the mana is set -8 for more than 1 time?

 

[Ghost765]

yes it can.
i figured it out, whenever i added the spellbook, for some unknown reason it set the mana to 0. so i just saved the units mana before adding the spellbook as a variable, and then when he used the spellbook, gave the variable amount of mana.
