Why isn't this trigger working?

EVENT: Unit - A unit Finishes research
CONDITION: (Researched tech-type) Equal to Max mana

ACTION: Set maxmana = (Integer((((Max mana of Willy) x 0.02) + (Max mana of Willy))))
ACTION:Unit - Set mana of Willy to (Real(maxmana))



maxmana is an integer variable

all i'm trying to do is increase the max mana of the hero willy by 2% each time this research is used.

Nevermind, found the problem. "Set mana" is not "Set max mana"; it's "Set current mana". Let's say Willy starts with 100 mana. He does a research, and the trigger is called.

Willy: 100/100 MP
maxmana = (100 x .02) + 100 = 102
Set mana of Willy to Real(maxmana)
Willy: 102/100 MP, or just 100/100 MP.

See the problem?

Well, I'm assuming you have "A unit" specified as something? In my version of the editor at least, you can't just leave it as "A unit".

Second, because I'm picky, you can compact (Integer((((Max mana of Willy) x 0.02) + (Max mana of Willy)))) into (Integer((Max mana of Willy) x 1.02)

I know the action and condition work. I tested that part with a simple move action. Its the action i have up there that isn't working. Even condensed as you have i think it would behave the same

Thats what i believe the problem is with it myself. But i haven't found anything in there that lets me trigger change max mana of any char.

EDIT: I tried it out and this is exactly whats going on, i drained his mana and hit the upgrade button and its topping him off instead of pushing his max up like i want.

anyone know a way i could perm push a char's max mana multiple times?

If i could get the %max mana increase upgrade to work i wouldn't have to do any triggers. I know there is something in the upgrade section but i've tried using it and nothing happens. increasing armor, damage or adding abilities through it works but i can't push mana or mana regen with it like i want to.

If Willy is a hero, I believe you could raise the intelligence and do it that way. Of course, that would be a 25 MP increase, but that's the only thing I can think of besides using a trigger, which I haven't done before to alter maximum stats.

If its a research then just make it increase the max mana of all units who benefit from it.

i tried that, nothing happens. even though all my other upgrades are working for him. if anyone has ever made use of that upgrad i'd appreciate a quick walk through on it, it should be working and its not so i must have missed something but i've gone over it like 20 times

also i don't wanna touch intel, i have tomes that random drop that boost stats





thanks kaerf but i found that thread as well as a jass one and i had no idea what i was looking at or how to even begin implementing it.

Upgrading max mana is working perfectly fine for me.
Try to remake the upgrade.

    Crazy how much 3d printing has come in the last few years. Sad that it's not as easily modifiable though
  • Varine Varine:
    I bought an Ender 3 during the pandemic and tinkered with it all the time. Just bought a Sovol, not as easy. I'm trying to make it use a different nozzle because I have a fuck ton of Volcanos, and they use what is basically a modified volcano that is just a smidge longer, and almost every part on this thing needs to be redone to make it work
  • Varine Varine:
    Luckily I have a 3d printer for that, I guess. But it's ridiculous. The regular volcanos are 21mm, these Sovol versions are about 23.5mm
  • Varine Varine:
    So, 2.5mm longer. But the thing that measures the bed is about 1.5mm above the nozzle, so if I swap it with a volcano then I'm 1mm behind it. So cool, new bracket to swap that, but THEN the fan shroud to direct air at the part is ALSO going to be .5mm to low, and so I need to redo that, but by doing that it is a little bit off where it should be blowing and it's throwing it at the heating block instead of the part, and fuck man
  • Varine Varine:
    I didn't realize they designed this entire thing to NOT be modded. I would have just got a fucking Bambu if I knew that, the whole point was I could fuck with this. And no one else makes shit for Sovol so I have to go through them, and they have... interesting pricing models. So I have a new extruder altogether that I'm taking apart and going to just design a whole new one to use my nozzles. Dumb design.
  • Varine Varine:
    Can't just buy a new heatblock, you need to get a whole hotend - so block, heater cartridge, thermistor, heatbreak, and nozzle. And they put this fucking paste in there so I can't take the thermistor or cartridge out with any ease, that's 30 dollars. Or you can get the whole extrudor with the direct driver AND that heatblock for like 50, but you still can't get any of it to come apart
  • Varine Varine:
    Partsbuilt has individual parts I found but they're expensive. I think I can get bits swapped around and make this work with generic shit though
