Adding +1 damage for each attack

[FannyShaver]

• Lightning Tower Attack
  • Events
    • Unit - A unit Is attacked
  • Conditions
    • (Unit-type of (Attacking unit)) Equal to Ultimate Lightning Tower
    • ((Attacked unit) belongs to an enemy of Player 1 (Red)) Equal to True
  • Actions
    • Unit - Add Ultimate Lightning Tower +1 dmg (+1) to (Attacking unit)
    • Unit - Set level of Ultimate Lightning Tower +1 dmg (+1) for (Attacking unit) to 2
    • Unit - Remove Ultimate Lightning Tower +1 dmg (+1) from (Attacking unit)

Ability was:

level 1 = 0dmg
level 2 = 1dmg

and

level 1 = 0dmg
level 2 = -1dmg

None worked. Any clue how to get that done?

What exactly do you need? Cause I'm having a bit of trouble understanding what you want to achieve.

- If you want the tower to deal damage +1 just add a Item attack bonus ability to it.

- If you want the tower to deal +1 damage on each attack upgrade the level each attack using a trigger, or use Incinerate (Neutral Hostile).

- If you want it to have a chance to deal more damage use Bash or Critical Strike.

- If you want it to deal more damage only to player 1, you'd have to use waits or such, though I'd suggest you just use the "Cause attacking unit to damage Attacked unit for 1.

Why doesn't the trigger work?

• Unit - A unit Is attacked

Works when the unit is about to attack, not when it attacks. So when it's about to attack it will: Get the ability but it'll get removed before the unit attacks.
- You Order the attack.
- Aim, Ready andd
- Gets ability
- Removes ability
- FIREEE!!!!
- BOOM!
Like that...

It's meant to increase damage +1 every time this tower attacks.

 

[hopy]

• Im overpowered at the end of the map
  • Events
    • Unit - A unit Is attacked
  • Conditions
    • (Unit-type of (Attacking unit)) Equal to Ultimate Lightning Tower
    • ((Attacked unit) belongs to an enemy of Player 1 (Red)) Equal to True
  • Actions
    • Unit - Set level of Ultimate Lightning Tower for (Attacking unit) to ((Level of Ultimate Lightning Tower for (Attacking unit)) + 1)

That should be ok, just make sure that the tower has the ability Ultimate Lightning Tower.
A small problem with this is that the ability would have a massive amount of levels... A way to avoid that is to use "Damage attacked unit for Intreger" and increase Intreger+1 every time he attacks, with an Array in case you'll have multiple of these units.

 

[FannyShaver]

This what you gave me requires even thousands of levels for this ability. I need another idea.

You can use the upgrade. In trigger, upgrade's max can be increased. But this upgrade will affect other towers of this player that has this upgrade. There's no other way to make a bonus damage for a single tower if not using the bonus damage spell and leveling it to something high. But if it's only 1 per player then, you can use the upgrade :thup:

• Actions
  • Set IntegerX = (IntegerX + 1)
  • Player - Set the max research level of Storm Hammers to (IntegerX + 1) for (Owner of (Triggering unit))
  • Player - Set the current research level of Storm Hammers to IntegerX for (Owner of (Triggering unit))
  • -------- The Storm Hammer should be the upgrade that gives bonus damage----------

NOTE: Also, do not use A Unit is Attacked event, cuz players can press "S" or stop to gain damage faster. Use damage detection

An upgrade would diffinitly be the solution, but you can just create a new upgrade, and aply it to that single tower, and give it.. 100 levels (think thats the max) and apply the bonus you like

then you increase it 1 level for every shot.

I am trying now with providing an inventory slot, giving it a permament damage increase +1 tome, and removing inv slot. Problem is, that terrain around it might be pretty blocked. 100 levels is not enough Erm well, I think I can get more than 100 levels...

 

[FannyShaver]

Well, idea with research must be dropped. Far too much lag when tower is built.

 

[Opa]

Add Item Abilities?

 

[FannyShaver]

Well, I tried that:

• Lightning Tower Attack
  • Events
    • Unit - A unit Is attacked
  • Conditions
    • (Unit-type of (Attacking unit)) Equal to Lightning Tower
    • ((Attacked unit) belongs to an enemy of Player 1 (Red)) Equal to True
  • Actions
    • Player - Set the max research level of Lightning Power to 200 for (Owner of (Attacking unit))
    • Player - Set the current research level of Lightning Power to ((Current research level of Lightning Power for (Owner of (Attacking unit))) + 1) for (Owner of (Attacking unit))

Doesn't work.

 

[FannyShaver]

The function:

• Player - Set the max research level of Lightning Power to (dupa + 1) for (Owner of (Attacking unit))

Doesn't work at all.

Laiev:
Haha, welcome to the Warcraft World, wheres everything is limited without reason lol

Unfortunately its true...

Gotta be mad at blizzard not making a function to do that(increasing units properties) right?

If you really want this to work the you have to do(I think this is the easiest way to do this):

1. Go here and download newgen if you don't have it -> newgen
2. Go here and download Unit Properties -> unit properties
3. then use custom script: call UnitModifyDamage(GetAttacker(), 1)

 

[xAnaMorphine]

nothing to do, i attached a map witch solves the problem imo

 

[FannyShaver]

3. then use custom script: call UnitModifyDamage(GetAttacker(), 1)

How do i do GetDamageSource instead of Getattacker?

 

[FannyShaver]

Erm. Right. I've got it working, but:

I was hoping it's gonna get that damage fit into base damage, not as a bonus, as I have another bonus running, and this (+1) is not affected by another bonus :/

 

[Sgqvur]

Hope this is what you wanted -> see the attached map

You could check DotU's official site www.playdotu.com also.

 

[FannyShaver]

Did you actually tried that map before you pasted? I had to add another player to see that no damage is added to this tower.

Well, I am sorry that you do not want bonuses. I cant think of any other possibilities but tech upgrades...

Adding an inventory slot is the way to go if you don't want it to be green bonus damage. here is a test map I made for you that is mui.


these are the triggers in the map.

• bonus dmg
  • Events
    • Unit - A unit Is attacked
  • Conditions
    • (Unit-type of (Attacking unit)) Equal to damage gain
  • Actions
    • If (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions)
      • If - Conditions
        • ((Attacking unit) is in avoidAbuse) Equal to True
      • Then - Actions
        • Unit Group - Remove (Attacking unit) from avoidAbuse
      • Else - Actions
        • Unit - Add Inventory (Hero) to (Attacking unit)
        • Hero - Create +1 damage tome and give it to (Attacking unit)
        • Unit - Remove Inventory (Hero) from (Attacking unit)

Damage gain is the name of the tower and +1 damage tome is just a tome which I gave a modified version of the ability "item permanent damage gain"

• avoid abuse
  • Events
    • Unit - A unit Is issued an order with no target
    • Unit - A unit Is issued an order targeting an object
  • Conditions
    • (Unit-type of (Triggering unit)) Equal to damage gain
  • Actions
    • Unit Group - Add (Triggering unit) to avoidAbuse

If you didn't have this trigger you could spam stop or order the tower to attack another unit which would restart an attack resulting in more damage for the tower.

well thats about it here is the map:
