Anyhow!

How to create burned units!


Well you can guess what is comming.

get out your great nottud transform units trigger.

set it from oak tree burning to a unit. im using hippikons.

Now grant yourselves some forest fires, place down an oak forest and playtest

[JPEG, (172.28 KB)]

as you can see the hippikons slowly turn a nice shade of burnt, and eventually die.

Now simply task units in area to run in a dirrection (so when they switch they flee) and now you have units running for water from a burnt location in cinematics ect.

OMG awesome. One could create endless fun minigames titled "Find the water before you die!"

you can make burning and not dying units
figure out the percentage of hp taken off,and damage unit %trigger and have it HEALING the percentage taken off,or you can do a little bit less so they die slower.

Genious Newreach.

Your little tricks don't get enough notice.

Does it work for buildings?

yes it probally does work for buildings. I will test latter today to make sure, but i see no reason why it would not.

On the subject of buildings, you could use several different tree types, changing to different buildings. Then casting multiple forest fire, could create a burning city.

other notes:

Gaia forest trees are player spc (in other words a player can OWN a gaia forest tree) If you set these on fire the player can control the burning unit.

my idea doesn't work. this does but not for all units. spam restoration. it won't seem to work but when they're about to die they will go right up to full hp and the burning effect will stop. I tested on a guardian. useful for rpgs.

Awesome.

Could it work without the forest fires? Couldn't you just transform Oak burning to another unit?

posted 04 April 2007 09:56 PM EDT (US)     8 / 27  
Yeah, but the effect in game in this cased is being caused by a GP (useful for scenarios). Forest fire works best.

There isn't a transform trigger besides nottuds.
There is Change Units in Area but that doesn't have as many possibilities as Transform.
Transform will work for any unit, arrows, hero birth, fire siphon fire, anything.
It also keeps the properties of the unit transformed.

Indeed. Yes, there currently isn't another transform other than mine but one might come, you never know!

If you run a burning unit up against an enemy building, will that building take damage like it would from forest fire?

yes they damage buildings and can run up to other trees and set them on fire also

What do I do with the !-- Nottud's extra triggers part?
And do I paste this text into the protox or something?
If so, where? (Note: I removed the sideways carrot-things)

you have opnened the file - you need to save it, not open it. Save it to trigger2 and extract the file.
