Help Needed

[allanate]

I am trying to make a macro that does this effect. can someone help me?

This unit takes 50% less BLADE DAMAGE when attacked by a melee skill

[Kapoue_II]

Code: Select all

#define ABILITY_BLADERESIST2
    [resistance]
        id=bladeresist
        multiply=2
        apply_to=blade
        [filter_base_value]
            greater_than=0
        [/filter_base_value]
        name= _ "steadfast"
        female_name= _ "female^steadfast"
        description= _ "Steadfast:
This unit’s blade resistance is doubled  when defending. Vulnerabilities are not affected."
        affect_self=yes
        active_on=defense
    [/resistance]

#enddef

Thanks a lot!

is there a way it can be a weapon ability as well, that is what im aiming at mostly but if not ill accept what you have given me.

once again thank you.

You can just place that in the [specials] when defining the weapon in the .cfg (and rename it, if you want).

Warning: the code I gave will break your game, as I missplaced my #enddef. Use this instead:

Code: Select all

    #define ABILITY_BLADERESIST2
        [resistance]
            id=bladeresist
            multiply=2
            apply_to=blade
            [filter_base_value]
                greater_than=0
            [/filter_base_value]
            name= _ "steadfast"
            female_name= _ "female^steadfast"
            description= _ "Steadfast:
    This unit’s blade resistance is doubled  when defending. Vulnerabilities are not affected."
            affect_self=yes
            active_on=defense
        [/resistance]
#enddef

is there a macro that increases your damage as your HP goes down?

[StDrake]

in fact doing that as a weapon special will be more efficient, as kapoues code is more leaky than he thinks, simply use the [damage] tag with a multiply=0.5 applied to the opponent (see wiki for details)

Merged your two threads; please keep all your questions in one thread.

Not that I know of, but can be easily done.

Kapoue_II, your answer is wrong.

allanate wants that his unit received half blade damage, but after your code, unit will receive 0-100% blade damage.

Example: If basic blade resistance Will be 10%, then with your ability ABILITY_BLADERESIST2 blade damage will be not 50% but 80%.

Who can help with this question? It is interesting to me too. How to create ability which will decrease damage on 50%, and this abillity must to work when units resistance will be 0-40% too.

This should work. I haven't tested it though.

	name_inactive="melee blade resistance"

	description_inactive="This unit takes 50% less damage from melee blade attacks."
