Checking a unit's attack type

Hi there, for my damage detection based knockback system, I'd like units with piercing damage to have a 50% multiplier on their kb power.

Right now I just do if then checking if the damage source is a unit type (xyz) and then set power=power/2

How can I make this more modular so instead of using 'or' a thousand times it just says something like GetUnitDamageType(source)==DAMAGETYPEPIERCING or something along those lines.

Thanks in advance.

use hashtable

arrayattacktype[Hash8191(GetUnitTypeId(GetDamageSource()))]

Hash8191 == hash functions from any storage system based of ox100000 deduction

you shoud fill array self, since damage type detection ingame cannot be done in instant manner.

That sounds annoying. I was hoping I was being retarded by not finding a native. I'll just use if thens for now. Thanks for the quick answer.

You could also give all units a dummy ability that represents attack type and just check that.

hashtable is way, after next patch with native hash table this is only way.

Table is way. Or is there any reason for a system like a dd/knockback to not require Table?

I would give every unit with piercing damage a dummyspell without icon and effect (eg: AoE-Damage on death with targets set to none) and just check if the caster has this spell.
