    Trigger doesn't seem to be working

    If you're trying to add maximum hit points you need to set max-life, or give it an item ability if that doesn't work. Your trigger heals by 100 IF the target unit is damaged. Edit: Way late. Anyway, what's it for?

    Crafting Ability Issue

    Make sure the second ability has a different name (if you want it to look the same in-game just use an editor suffix) and may I see the two triggers?

    A hard trigger to trigger. Item to ability vice versa

    OK, I don't really get this. An ability with 15 types means what exactly? Because it can either be 1 ability with 15 levels or 15 abilities. The way I understand arrays is they are strings of variables, kind of like a word where you reference an individual letter within it by its number. I do...

    ability that changes ranged unit to melee?

    I guess with 4 levels of the skill you will make 4 "bear form" melee versions? They can have different MS, damage, non-Hero abilities and that good stuff.

    A hard trigger to trigger. Item to ability vice versa

    You're making your life harder for no good reason. This is a simple matter, you don't need to go into arrays and all that excrement. Step 1: Make all the abilities available through this system have the button position (0,2). I have tested this and know for a fact that additional abilities will...

    splashing orb effects

    Corrosive Breath deals 250 Damage over 5 seconds to buildings (though I believe the damage is actually Magic, so it becomes 105 due to reduction). There is no splash damage. There might be Vorpal Blade.

    Item restrictions

    Just being polite. Is that bad? :nuts: Anyway, it'd be funny to make only certain items unpickable for non-owners, and from them, some items will cause nasty consequences when this is attempted.

    Item restrictions

    Ha! Real cute idea. Permission to use it (with credits)!

    Headshot trigger?

    Well, it works so far! Thanks Sirroelivan and Trollvottel. Jedi: Nice link, but it looks frightfully complicated. BTW, my pc is an Athlon 1600+ at 1.4 GHZ (used to be 1.7) with 0.75 GB Ram, 128 MB Nvidia video card (dunno the exact model right now) and a 120 GB SATA-1 hard disk with 8 MB...

    Headshot trigger?

    Nice, but won't this cause obscene amounts of lag? I already have more than a few triggers, and my computer is very outdated. I can't play Caesar IV on it, that's how outdated it is.

    Headshot trigger?

    Add the event manually? What's that mean? Because if it's a line of custom script, I don't really know how to write one for this thing, or any other to be honest. And those seem to work only for Actions. Yeah, that's exactly the part I can't get my head around - what event to use to be able to...

    Headshot trigger?

    No, not like dota's sniper, what a lousy hero that is :thdown: :D Anyway, how do I make a trigger that displays "Headshot!" and maybe a Headshot sound whenever a unit is killed from more than, say, 50% hp, or 500 hp, in one instance of damage?

    Absurd Problem (With spells)

    Note that a hero can only have 5 hero spells, and unless you have a tricked out GUI for your warcraft, you won't get more than 12 commands to work with 5 already taken. That means 7 abilities overall at any time (6 + close book in a spell book I would imagine). Also make sure to set maximum (and...

    Request - Ultimate Ability Idea

    Convergence: (if you can code it - I don't think I can) Marks a target enemy hero to have all allied ranged attacks converge on it. If an ally, or the Burning Archer, attacks a target near it, the attack will bounce to the Converged target, dealing x% damage. Effectively, whenever you attack...

    How to make circle of powers that can buy heroes

    That's correct for buying items, not units. Just make a custom Wisp, remove its native abilities, give it the circle of power graphic as a model and make its movement speed zero. Also set its movement to None. Give the shop in question the Select Unit ability, remove Select Hero. The...
