Ah good to know that, thanks.

> Raw Data pulls information from a specific object and puts it into writing for JASS (AbiID) coding and tooltips.

Puts it into writing?

> <Obj#;ObjType,ObjData>

There is no "number and type", there is only an ID.

> <A000:AHtb,dataA1>

<A000,DataA1>

> Note: All custom skills will have an Obj #
> The original Blizzard skills only have the ObjType but no Obj#.

No.
See above.

> There are a few data fields that require only the Obj# which are buffs, effects, and related fields.

What?

> When creating tool tips with multiple ranks use the Auto Fill Level feature.

Where is that?

> If you are using Raw Data in the tool tip it will auto change them to the specific level of the object.

Hopefully, yes. Though that depends on how you try to fill it.

> Use Raw Data in tool tips often.

That's a matter of taste.

> Raw Data does not count toward the tool tip letter limit.

How so?


> If you delete the skill, then it will show at 0. It's more precise with <AHtb>

No and no.

> the tooltip can't view real values properly

There is also <ID,data,%> for percent values and <ID,data,.> for decimals.

Yes for tooltips.

Object Type is what the skill is based on. Obj Number, is shown before the object ype.

> <A000:AHtb,dataA1>

<A000,DataA1>

>What?

Press Crtl+D and take a look at the buff for stormbolt.

>Where is that?

Right click tool tips with multiple levels/ranks, auto fill is one of the options.

>That's a matter of taste.

It's a good practice.

> How so?

<A000:AHtb,dataA1> = 100 which is still only 3 digits.

This should be <A000,DataA1>.

What it shows in game is one thing. But the tooltip as such also has some length limit. And "<A000,DataA1>" adds much more than 3 characters.

Good tutorial so far, I can't wait to see where it goes from here. I was looking for a tutorial on this aspect cause I couldn't figure it out.

For me, RawData in abilites and units is VERY usefull. Especially when balancing units, all you need is to change the data of damage/duration/etc. , and not the tooltip too.

Now you should add the RawData for units, like summons, showing their damage, health, etc.

Also, the "type" you would use a RawData for, like Duration = Dur , and so on

For summons? and all the blabla? Look at Summon Water Elemental, Feral Spirit.. there's some datas.

Duration = Dur1 or Dur2 (depends?)

I know what they mean, and the last number is for level, but i mean for other people that don't.

 

[Oninuva]

Added, since you said "other people don't"

Actually you can display reals by adding a ,. at the end

EX:

* <A000,DataA1,.> Will display the integer as a real (Only to one decimal place)

As well as others like:
<A000,DataA1,%> will display a decial as a percentage (0.74 as 74)

<A000,DataA1,+> Will display a negative value positive and vice versa
( <A000,DataA1,-> will make positive to a negative)

<A000,DataA1,+> Will display a negative value positive and vice versa
( <A000,DataA1,-> will make positive to a negative)

two questions:
1. Is it possible to make a value have 2 decimal places instead of one?

2. How would i make a value a percentage as well as a positive too?

I have an ability based off the endurance aura which decreases enemy unit's attack rate and movement speed, and at the moment, it is saying -10%.

Just want to know if it is possible to do these two things or will i have to go through each one and do it manually?

Also, although of topic, is there another ability like endurance aura which decreases movement speed and attack rate?

Thanks
Jerm
