Need help with custom Ability (WarStomp, but for tower's missile)

[LearningCode]

Thanks for the suggestion,
But adding this Condition works:
GDD_DamageSource Equal to "Tower name"


GDD_Event only turns to 0.00 when a unit receives damage.
So, Event, GDD reaches 0.00
Check Condition, DamageSource = TowerBash

Do actions. xD

Then again, that only works for towers and units without abilities, since spell damage is also damage taken, but since your tower does not have that, it's no problem (otherwise it'd work whenever it damages anyone, with a spell or attack).

 

[LearningCode]

Oh..
If it becomes a question of a Hero with spells..
Then Glenphir's method would be the only way?

What if the hero has 4 Active skills and no passive?
Then we can't use the envenom spears thing, can we?

 

[Ayanami]

You can. It still works.

Note: Do you have any other buff placer spells on your tower?

 

[LearningCode]

But if we want the Hero to only have 4 skills and add the "Envenom Spears" thing to the hero..
Won't there be a 5th skill appearing that that looks real ugly and out of place? o.0

Can I make it:
Events
A unit owned by Player X (XXXX) is attacked
Conditions
(Attacking unit) equals to (Hero-Name)
Actions
Wait till GDD_Event is equal to 0.00 checking every 0.1 seconds
// All our actions regarding this trigger

 

[Ayanami]

Hmm, try remove the "Remove Buff" part. See if the enemy receives the poison buff properly.

 

[LearningCode]

Apparently, the enemy does not get the buff.
But I've given up on the envenom spears method =x
Thanks for trying so hard to help, though.

I'm just thankful this was for a TD and not a hero arena or I'd be screwed.
bleargh.

 

[Ayanami]

Hmm, oh well. If you want, you can try Slow Poison. It's the same. It should work though 0.o Used it in my map.

 

[LearningCode]

Oh..
I see.
At least I learned something out of this.

But I still want to know if this will work:
Events
A unit owned by Player X (XXXX) is attacked
Conditions
(Attacking unit) equals to (Hero-Name)
Actions
Wait till GDD_Event is equal to 0.00 checking every 0.1 seconds
// All our actions regarding this trigger



Checking if the value of a real variable (GDD_Event) hits zero every 0.1 seconds before continuing on to whatever awesome custom skill we were planning to dish out on the damaged unit.

 

[Ayanami]

Well, I'm not that sure if this will work. However, imagine you have immolation. When you attack, your projectile flies to the enemy. Before the projectile lands, the immolation deals damage. This would cause a problem.

 

[LearningCode]

._.
Omg, how do you guys think of all these issues.

Err..
Hmm..
You would need a very long range immolation for that to happen, wouldn't you, but that's not the argument..

Okay, I give up xD
Yea, placing the buff would be a better idea =/

 

[sunshinex3]

Erm..
Okay, I'm lost again.

Installation of GUI-friendly damage detection: Check
Applying trigger you gave me: err..

I made sure the ability based off envenom spears gave the Poison buff (Both of them)
I gave the ability to my tower
The ability has a cast range Equal to my tower range
I even made the duration 999 and made it do 0.01 damage per second

No luck, it won't stun
The trigger I'll post was with the chance to stun set at 100%
And I only built ONE tower, so it shouldn't be clashing with anything else

    • Else - Actions

I tried adding "Custom script: local location udg_TempPointStun" above "Trigger - Turn off (This trigger)" but it didn't work either.

Any help?
