need some help.. Please.. (Need to remove Miss text.. from evasion)

Lost · May 30, 2008

Well.. i'm making a spell.. that aims at giving a hero.. evasion.. except.. everytime i evade an attack i want it to say "PARRY!" in red text instead of that Miss text that pops up.. Parry in big floating red text btw.. any suggestions?/

The only way you can do it, without triggers, it will do it whenever anybody misses for anything, not just evasion. Go to Advanced - game interface, its in there... Text - General - miss, or Text - Message - miss, its called. Check Allow custom game interface before you change it.

Flare · May 30, 2008

There's an option in Gameplay Constants or Game Interface (both found in the Advanced menu) which allows you to alter the miss text. I don't know what it is called though

EDIT: Beaten ^^

i'm fine with triggers.. but i want it to only work for evasion not every single miss..

I can make you a trigger I will edit my post when I finish it.

EDIT:Here is the the trigger I know it leaks and I don't even know if it is mui and it has bugs I'll make it better if I can figure out a way:

Code:

Parry
    Events
        Unit - A unit Learns a skill
    Conditions
        (Learned Hero Skill) Equal to Evasion
    Actions
        Trigger - Turn on Attacked Unit <gen>

Code:

Attacked Unit
    Events
        Unit - A unit Is attacked
    Conditions
    Actions
        Set Integer = (Integer + 1)
        Set Attacked = (Attacked unit)
        Set Attacker[Integer] = (Attacking unit)
        Set Attacker_Parry = Attacker[Integer]
        Set Random_Int = (Random integer number between 1 and 100)
        If (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions)
            If - Conditions
                (Level of Evasion for Attacked) Equal to 1
            Then - Actions
                If (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions)
                    If - Conditions
                        Random_Int Less than or equal to 10

                        Set Attacker_Loc = (Position of Attacker_Parry)

                        Unit - Pause Attacker_Parry
                        Animation - Play Attacker_Parry's attack animation
                        Floating Text - Create floating text that reads Parry at Attacker_Loc with Z offset 0.00, using font size 10.00, color (100.00%, 0.00%, 0.00%), and 0.00% transparency

                        Trigger - Turn on Periodic Event <gen>
                        Wait 1.00 seconds
                        Unit - Unpause Attacker_Parry
                    Else - Actions
            Else - Actions

Code:

Periodic Event
    Events
        Time - Every 0.03 seconds of game time
    Conditions
    Actions
        Trigger - Turn off (This trigger)
        Floating Text - Set the velocity of Float_Text to 50.00 towards 90.00 degrees
        Wait 2.50 seconds
        Floating Text - Destroy Float_Text

It doesn't look good with ranged units and make sure you set all the values from the evasion to 0.

haha.. i'm.. just gonna stick with Miss for now..??

W!†A_cRaft · May 31, 2008

There is a way to REMOVE the MISS from evasino.....

It is very simple...
Do not make the spell from evasion. Rather use a Hardened Skin spell... set the damage reduction to like 99999 and minimum damage to 0 and thus you will not get damaged, and will not show "MISS"

well won't that make the unit practically invulnerable?

Flare · May 31, 2008

well won't that make the unit practically invulnerable?

I think there is a % chance associated with Hardened Skin as well.

Lost · May 31, 2008

i'll check it out

it may work.. but.. i don't know how the code the text appearance.. =$ can someone write the trigger for me and post it??

Lost · May 31, 2008

Code. the entire trigger please..
i don't know how to code.. passives.. the event aswell

Flare · May 31, 2008

its only been 15 mins, dont doublepost...

We here at TH.net are not a Warcraft III editing service. Do not expect for you to hand over your map to us and have it handed back magically complete. It won't happen. So don't try.

We're not here to do the work for you :\

Lost · May 31, 2008

.. thank you.. for the help.. all i'm asking for.. is an even a condition and an action.. if you don't want to write the trigger.. you could kindly.. link me to a tutorial? and i've tried Daelin's tutorial it doesn't cover non-triggered spells.. (passives) if you don't want to help.. don't post. thanks.

-_- and the double post was an accident.. my net disconnects like hell.. i clicked quick reply.. and tried to do it again.. ended up in two posts.. i apologize for that.

Flare · May 31, 2008

Well, the choices are
1) Use Hardened Skin, live without Parry! text
2) Alter the Evasion text, live with every miss saying Parry!
3) Find a damage detection system (using Is Attacked events is not a great option), and there are a few DD systems in te Tutorials and Resource form, but this just makes it really complicated, especially if you only want to parry physical attacks.

Lost · May 31, 2008

There is no action that detects.. the activation of a passive? :/ not one??

Flare · May 31, 2008

nope. you can thank blizzard for that

Lost · May 31, 2008

Alright well.. i'll live with the miss for now.. thanks anyway.. ^^ nd i'm sorry for being a little rude earlier..

i just dont like when people ask for others to make out the triggers for that (whether you meant the whole code or not), but i guess i was being a bit rude too
