[Help]² Decreasing Charges

[eclypt]

Hello there again, now, i got a mini-problem, that occours when i manage to attack any unit.

i started a trigger that will decrease the remainning charges of the current weapon, so when i attack a unit and then instantly moves arround to cancel the attack order, the current charges goes down like i've attacked and doens't canceled...

is any thing that prevent it to keep happening?

Well on attack events are before the unit takes damage you will need a damage detection system like GDD

• DDT
  • Events
    • Map initialization
    • Unit - A unit enters (Playable map area)
  • Conditions
  • Actions
    • If (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions)
      • If - Conditions
        • BooleanVar[1] Equal to False
      • Then - Actions
        • Set BooleanVar[1] = True
        • Set UnitGroupVar = (Units in (Playable map area))
        • Unit Group - Pick every unit in UnitGroupVar and do (Actions)
          • Loop - Actions
            • Trigger - Add to ItemChargers <gen> the event (Unit - (Picked unit) Takes damage)
        • Custom script: call DestroyGroup(udg_UnitGroupVar)
      • Else - Actions
        • Trigger - Add to ItemCharges <gen> the event (Unit - (Triggering unit) Takes damage)

• ItemCharges
  • Events
  • Conditions
    • (Damage taken) Greater than 0.00
  • Actions
    • If (All conditions) are true then do (Actions) else do (Actions)
      • If - Conditions
        • (Damage source) has <item>
      • Then - Actions
        • <actions pertaining removing charges>

PS:
Attacking unit = Damage source
Attacked unit = Triggering unit

The bad thing about this is that it also works on spells. :<

Please Denmax, never recommend using the GUI damage taken event, instead recommend using Weep's GDD snippet.

I think your problem lies in using orders to prevent an attack. Instead, add the Cargo (Hold) ability to the unit when the unit has no "attack" items with charges left, and remove it when it acquires new.
