Ability that adds hitpoints

[david2cool]

Hey, on this hero i am making i want an ability that adds hit points to their total hit points. I based the ability off the item ability that adds hit points but it only works for the first level and not the next three. Is there anyway to fix this?

Also if anyone can think of a better way of doing it thats fine too.

Not sure if you can reverse the effects of it though

Sorry, I don't think you understood me. I want the ability to give the hero just +200hp, +400hp etc. I just want to add this to their total hitpoints.

So if the hero had 200hp then learned the ability he would now have 400hp.

You could make an upgrade and research it when the hero learns the ability?

Change the -1 increment to -200, and use the trigger in the link whenever the hero learns the skill. Done, 200HP bonus whenever you learn the skill

Go into the abilities menu, select items abilities and pick e.g 'Item Life Bonus', make it a hero ability, make it to 3 levels and you're done

I think that's what he was already trying to do. Certain item abilities don't level correctly (Item Life Bonus being one of them, from what I recall)

Yeah, stupid of me
You could use triggers, and use the 'Add Ability' depending on hero skill level.

Sorry i am still confused about this. How would having a -200hp to my hero increase it by 200 each time????

If possible could you please post the trigger. I am confused.

I tried this trigger with an item ability (non hero) with 3 levels. But it only worked for the first one.

Ok, now I got it: Create a new skill, for instance; copy bash and zero the values then use this trigger.

It just does. I didn't believe it at first either

        Unit - Set level of Item Life Bonus (Greater) for (Triggering unit) to (Level of Fire Life  for (Triggering unit))

Remove the ability afterwards.

Ty that works but i kinda sucks that i need 5 abilities for it. The first basic one that doesnt do anything and 4 Item Bonus +200 health.:thdown: Anyways +rep for u.:thup:

Flare im still trying to get ur way to work but i cant get it.
Do all the values in the item bonus have to have -200 values?
Id rather use ur way if i could get it to work.

The trigger is like this.

        Unit - Set level of Item Life Bonus (Greater) for (Triggering unit) to (Level of Fire Life  for (Triggering unit))
        Unit - Remove Item Life Bonus (Greater) from (Triggering unit)

 

[Zakyath]

is it just me, or doesn't an ability stop working when you remove it immediately?

 

[Flare]

That's the Manual of Health ability, so technically it's a once-off thing. I dunno, it's weird

It's a strange thing, but it does work (I had to test it after seeing it because it looked like total BS at first)

The ability is Item Permanent Life Gain, my bad

 

[david2cool]

flare i still couldn't get that ability to work

i made item permanent health each give -200 health for each level. i then gave the level of item permenent to the hero set it to the right level and removed and still it didnt work. Are u sure it works ?

 

[WilliamPa]

Use Hero Attributes ability and make it give stamina correct value, if u haven't edited gameplay constants, it will be 8 stam=200hp

 

[david2cool]

What do u mean by staminia in hero attributes? I didn't want to give strength just more max hitpoints.

> Ty that works but i kinda sucks that i need 5 abilities for it

Then give the life bonus ability few levels. You only need one ability.


> couldn't get that ability to work

You should probably show your current trigger.


This may help you.

I don't know exactly how you want it to be, but this is the way to implement it:

1. Copy the 'Set Max Hp' trigger into your map.
2. Then do (This depends on what event you want):

Event
 A unit learns an ability
Condition
 Hero ability learnt Equal to Something
Action
 Set Some_Unit = (Triggering unit)
 Set Max_Hp = (200 x (Level of learnt ability)) <-- [I]This adds 200/400/600 HP everytime you learn[/I]
 Trigger - Run Set Max Hp <gen>
