Negative Data

[Kheldar]

How do you make a data of an ability "negativ". for example an aura which makes all enemies nearby slower.

 

[Mind]

You can't. You have to make an ability with the base of an ability that has negative data. The slow aura of a Tornado (TFT required) is ideal for the ability you want to create.

aha, ok thx, but in the AoS-based game Tides of Blood there is an aura which drains the hit points of nearby enemies, and i thought they took Unholy Aura and made it negative.

 

[Kheldar]

and that aura ALSO makes the enemies slower, i dont understand how they could get 2 in one. Have they used another program or something?
exuse my english if its bad, im swedish.

 

[Mind]

The creator of the editor obviously used another program to create the editor, like realbasic or something.

perhaps I should take this opportunity to point out:

file -> preferences -> general tab -> check "Allow negative real values in the object editor"

 

[Mind]

AAAR! Will I never learn to use thee simple things in the world editor?
Now I can create the "misfit aura" in my old level. Thanks, Darg.

 

[Kheldar]

so u CAN make negative abilities?

 

[Mind]

Yes, ever since I readed Darg's last post in this topic. You propably forgot to read that one.

 

[Darg]

you can put negative DATA in the fields for abilities, yes.
