your demo map attemps to destroy a null struct on map init.
It fails if you use healing spray ... try it you will get owned by debug msgs :D

I agree with muzk the damage counting ain't precise anymore if you used healing spray.

isn't it incorrect in every aspect as soon as you go over the 100% marker?

just for the total sumerization:
ghoul did 300 damage, out of total 700 damage dealt.

300/700 ~ 42%

system said it is 47%
Basically system is neglecting the initiator of the combat if the target receives heals.

Not really useful at all.

The method of creating linked lists sure is appealing, until they regenerate and it's worthless.

Will anyone ever work on this? I guess Furby has abandoned the project seeing as there are so many... "undesirable" side-effects. :rolleyes:

Only way around this would be using Heal and coding a plug-in to trigger regeneration completely (Kingy did it somewhere, search for it) and then that could be used.

Furby don't edit warcraft anymore :p

Hm. Yeah that's quite right. But what really is problem? I would would have to go over this since I didn't do a thing since June.. but when I went through my image explanation I think it takes care of heals.. doesn't it?

Basing from the algorithm/diagram that Furby posted on the first post...
I think I can (or I have) constructed a better algorithm that can account for any heal or regen whatsoever (triggered or not.)

I calculated on paper and seems to be logical enough.. all that's left is to implement it.

i deleted my post to avoid double posting but... you posted :p.

Precise Damage Counter 1.5

How does it work?
Takes the total damage inflicted on the unit over
the sum of the base hitpoints and regenerated hitpoints.

i.e.
You kill a unit with 100 hp but it healed 30 hp by the time you killed it.
Your percentage of the damage will be damage/130 instead of just damage/100.

Pros:
Accepts any kind of healing. (Natural Regen, Blizz Spells, Triggered Heal).
Should not crash for any reason.

Cons:
Does not have 100% accuracy on the total percentages the longer and more the target heals.
(Help me fix it and figure out why?)

All of a sudden, no one cares :p

Unless it is 100% precise, it's not useful.
