Regeneration while "Hidden"

[Weyird]

I've got my friendly vampire hero working nicely now. He is no Edward, he burns in the sun, all is well. Because nobody wants to die just because its day I've given him an ability to hide in a coffin during the day - triggered to create the coffin unit and "hide" the vampire. I want him to regen 1% hp per sec while "in the coffin". So the trigger also gives him an ability based off the fountain of life's healing.
Unfortunately, it doesn't seem to affect him. He regenerates, but so slowly that it must be his own natural regeneration. Any way to fix this? Or a trigger to modify his natural regeneration rate?

Not sure on your events and conditions.

• Unit - Set life of (Triggering unit) to ((Life of (Triggering unit)) + ((Max life of (Triggering unit)) / 100.00))

That won't work Hex because its not an "every second" trigger. It runs once when the ability is cast to put him in coffin, and another trigger performs all functions to set things back to normal when he hops out.

Is there a "set regeneration" code in JASS I could use?

EDIT: I thought maybe its just the fountain's regen that doesn't affect hidden units so I tried giving the vamp unholy aura instead, setting the regeneration to max. That doesn't work either

you can make a passive ability that adds health regeneration (probably based off one of the item abilities), and then add that to your hero

or use Status by Jesus4Lyf

Well when he starts the ability make it run this new trigger as a loop every 1 sec. And when it cancels make this turn off simple.

nooo, don't use the auras or the life regeneration fountain aura thing, those suck

use the ability that the Ring of Regeneration is based off

 

[Weyird]

I guess it would have to be another "every second" trigger. How I loath them
But ja, gots it working now.. At least it only runs when he in his coffin.

EDIT: Thank you

if i post shock images in this thread would op notice?

just do what I said, it will work i am 100% sure

 

[Weyird]

The problem with Ring of Regen based ability is that it's not percentage based. If I make it a set value it will be too strong early, and too weak later.
Thanks thou
