Healon/off detected

Curo

Why am I still playing this game...?

I did a bunch of searches, and this seems to work for everyone else, but not me. Wondering if there has been a change in the way this works.

So my hero has a modified heal that has all its values set to 0, and can only target bridges (to avoid the hero actually using the spell). I want to set a boolean variable = true when I autocast, and false when I turn off autocast.

I even added a text event to check if the boolean is being set, and it is NOT. The triggering unit is = hero_ghoul, I am 100% sure of that. I have laid out the trigger as simply as I can, and I can't find any problem. I turn on autocast, no boolean is set. Turn it off, no boolean is set.

Could it possibly have something to do with the data fields in the object editor? Could 0 cast time, 0 range, target only bridges, etc be messing me up?

Trigger:
  • ghoul command on off
    • Events
      • Unit - A unit Is issued an order with no target
    • Conditions
      • (Triggering unit) Equal to hero_ghoul
    • Actions
      • If (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions)
        • If - Conditions
          • (Issued order) Equal to (Order(healon))
        • Then - Actions
          • Set generals_command = True
          • Game - Display to (All players) for 5.00 seconds the text: GC On/True
        • Else - Actions
      • If (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions)
        • If - Conditions
          • (Issued order) Equal to (Order(healoff))
        • Then - Actions
          • Set generals_command = False
          • Game - Display to (All players) for 5.00 seconds the text: GC Off/False
        • Else - Actions

I doubt it.

The triggering unit is = hero_ghoul, I am 100% sure of that.
Are you sure you're sure? :p Will a debugging text message display if you put the action outside all the If-blocks?

Does the following trigger display the correct messages?:
Trigger:
  • Untitled Trigger 001
    • Events
      • Unit - A unit Is issued an order with no target
    • Conditions
    • Actions
      • Game - Display to (All players) the text: (String((Issued order)))


Are there any other triggers that could be interfering, at all? Because, when a trigger looks correct but doesn't work, start looking for other causes...
 
Lol guess what. It wasn't heal I based it off of, it was creepheal. Even though the object editor lists the order strings as healon/off, it's actually creephealon/off. Wow....

Thx for the help :)
 
LOL! Nice... Gotta love the object editor. :banghead:

    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/
