I was wondering how exactly this data works. I'm trying to use it as a variable (real) and store ammount of damage dealt by X tower. so, lets say I have the event ''a unit is attacked'' and this action ''damage_dealt (real variable) = event response-damage taken''

I tried that and asked the game to display floating text (display integer(real(damage_dealt))) at random region. The pproblem is that the floating text indicates 00 when the damage dealt is 5. Maybe I'm not using the right event? If so, what event should I use. If not, what am I doing wrong?
 
You need to use "A unit takes damage" event.But it is not a generic event =)
 
Damage Taken is an Event Response, meaning it takes its que directly from the triggered event.

For Damage taken you need the "A unit takes damage event" as said by Jedi. However, to use this you either need to have a specific unit, or you need to make specific unit events for EVERY unit, which is a damage detection system.

Try this. Here's an example on how to use it

Trigger:
  • Lifesteal
    • Events
      • Game - GDD_Event becomes Equal to 0.00 < That replaces ''A unit is Damaged''
    • Conditions
      • X
    • Actions
      • X


Variables

GDD_Event - A unit is Damaged
GDD_DamageSource - Source of the Damage (Damaging unit)
GDD_DamagedUnit - Unit receiving the damage (Damaged unit)
GDD_Damage - Amount of damage received.

You can find more info on the link above :).
Good Luck!

    News portal has been retired. Main page of site goes to Headline News forum now
  • The Helper The Helper:
    I am working on getting access to the old news portal under a different URL for those that would rather use that for news before we get a different news view.
  • Ghan Ghan:
    Easily done

    https://www.thehelper.net/pages/news/ is a link to the old news portal - i will integrate it into the interface somewhere when i figure it out
  • Ghan Ghan:
    Need to try something
  • Ghan Ghan:
    Hopefully this won't cause problems.
  • Ghan Ghan:
    Hmm
  • Ghan Ghan:
    I have converted the Headline News forum to an Article type forum. It will now show the top 20 threads with more detail of each thread.
  • Ghan Ghan:
    See how we like that.
  • The Helper The Helper:
    I do not see a way to go past the 1st page of posts on the forum though
  • The Helper The Helper:
    It is OK though for the main page to open up on the forum in the view it was before. As long as the portal has its own URL so it can be viewed that way I do want to try it as a regular forum view for a while
  • Ghan Ghan:
    Yeah I'm not sure what the deal is with the pagination.
  • Ghan Ghan:
    It SHOULD be there so I think it might just be an artifact of having an older style.
  • Ghan Ghan:
    I switched it to a "Standard" article forum. This will show the thread list like normal, but the threads themselves will have the first post set up above the rest of the "comments"
  • The Helper The Helper:
    I don't really get that article forum but I think it is because I have never really seen it used on a multi post thread
  • Ghan Ghan:
    RpNation makes more use of it right now as an example: https://www.rpnation.com/news/
