Spells with Attribute adding to damage.

[ZelNaga]

I'd like to have a few spells that gets a damage bonus from an attribute.
ex:
Spell X does 100 dmg + 1.5x your Intelligence

Came someone show me how to do this?

• Test A
  • Events
    • Unit - A unit Starts the effect of an ability
  • Conditions
    • (Ability being cast) Equal to *Your Ability*
  • Actions
    • Unit - Cause (Triggering unit) to damage (Target unit of ability being cast), dealing (100.00 + (1.50 x (Real((Intelligence of (Triggering unit) (Exclude bonuses)))))) damage of attack type Spells and damage type Normal

 

[Darthfett]

Only possible way is to trigger it. Either trigger just the damage (depends on the spell if it is possible to have the damage hit at the exact right time), or trigger the entire spell with the damage.

hmm

• Test A
  • Events
    • Unit - A unit Starts the effect of an ability
  • Conditions
    • (Ability being cast) Equal to *Your Ability*
  • Actions
    • Unit - Cause (Triggering unit) to damage (Target unit of ability being cast), dealing (100.00 + (1.50 x (Real((Intelligence of (Triggering unit) (Exclude bonuses)))))) damage of attack type Spells and damage type Normal

Am i using some old version of editor..??cuz i don't have otions like:

Events
Unit - A unit Starts the effect of an ability

and

Actions
Unit - Cause (Triggering unit) to damage (Target unit of ability being cast), dealing (100.00 + (1.50 x (Real((Intelligence of (Triggering unit) (Exclude bonuses)))))) damage of attack type Spells and damage type Normal

I'm pretty sure that even the older versions of warcraft have those (but I might be wrong) anyway, the way to get to them is:

Event: Generic unit event

-> A unit dies
- click "Dies" and select "starts the effect of an ability"

Actions: Unit - Cause unit to damage Target -> Near the very bottom of the unit actions list.

-> Unit - Cause (Triggering unit) to damage (Target unit of ability being cast), dealing ___ damage of attack type spells and damage type Normal.
- I'm assuming you know about triggering unit and target unit of ability being cast
- Click the ___
- Select Arithmetic from the drop menu
-> 0 + 0
- Click the first 0
- Type in 100 in Value
- Click OK
-> 100 + 0
- Click the second 0
- Select Arithmetic again
- Click the First 0 (in the second Arithmetic) and type in 1.50
- Click the Second 0 (in the second Arithmetic) and select Conversion - Integer to Real
- Click and Select "Unit - Property of unit" from the drop-menu
- Get to triggering unit
- Click Ok, Ok, Ok

You have it.

could it be that you use the Reign Of Chaos editor while the trigger example is made with The Frozen THrone editor??

 

[bigbone]

okay, tnx.. now i got that..

BUT, i sould know what does those numbers,i mean, wich means what..

ok, for example,i want to make heal skill wich heals for 80+2xINT.. how should i do that if i need it only fror that skill..???

The best thing you ever learn, is test

you need LEARN how to do, not just call people to do it, try to change the values lines of trigger, test triggers line and see what happen, is the best way to you do all

Good lucky

and REMEMBER.... read what the line say... "Causa (triggering unit) to damage (target of ability been cast) dealing (100 + (1.5 x intelligent of triggering unit))"

triggering unit is EVER the unit center of trigger....

"unit caster a spell" < the caster is the triggering unit
"a unit die" < the dying unit is triggering unit
"a unit say f*ckme" < the passive unit is triggering unit lol

good lucky again o// have fun :B

that would be what this line is for

• Conditions
  • (Ability being cast) Equal to *Your Ability*

 

[bigbone]

At the top of the trigger editor, you can find buttons for creating new triggers, events, conditions, actions.

On the side here are the shortcuts:
Event: Ctrl + E
Actions: Ctrl + R
Conditions: Ctrl + D

^I'm not completely sure of those...but it should work.

No, i mean i can't find atcion like -> Unit - Couse unit to damage target..
it's just not in unit action list..

 

[Rllulium]

It is listed under Unit as Damage Target

 

[Moridin]

Ohhh.

My mistake. It is:-

Unit - Damage Target.

Near the very bottom.

 

[bigbone]

I thing that i"ll soon will go crazy.. I just don't understand, where are those options.. i dont see anything like Unit - Bla bla..

My progress with this action is:

Select->
- New Action
Select->
- Action Type (Unit)
and how i see a lot of options like:
- Create Units Facing Angle
- Create Units Facing Point
- Create Corpse
- Kill
- Remove
- Explode
- Replace
- Hide
- Unhide ETC.. but nothing about damages or something..

 

[Moridin]

Yeah. That's the list of unit actions. Scroll down a bit (quite a bit) till you see it go from

Unit - Bla bla

to

Unit Group - Bla bla

...and then look at the last few Unit - actions JUST before the unit group actions. One of them will be:

Unit - Damage Target

On another note, you can search for it by doing this:

When clicking New Action, the box opens up. Then click the drop-down menu saying "General" on it. Scroll down to Search-for-text.

Then in the box given type in Unit - Damage

..and it should give you the options. NOTE: It searches for that EXACT string, so a single mistake will result in it not working. Also, it searches at the very base level and doesn't go in depth into the options of each action...so it won't work for more complicated search strings.

 

[bigbone]

It will lead me to nothing.. it's just not there.. could you make thats trigger action simple and send me to email..?? I wound be wery grateful if You do it..
My email: [email protected]

btw search didn't found either..

 

[Moridin]

I will upload a map here.

Btw, Realised that search would not find anything with that string. The correct string to enter in the search box is "Damage Target". Enter that and you should find it.
