Is there "code" for abilitydata that adds mana?

You can add health via items, but is there a mana one? Possibly hidden?

It seems kinda strange that they wouldn't add it in.

There is a reference to one for mana in the texts but the spell logic is removed completely. There is also one for attack power, and with a bit of tweaking it can be used.

This would help alot, if you could post how to do it that would really be appreciated.

The only way I've thought of doing things is adding an item then removing it instantly (item bug).

But if there is a way in text you could do it. Because when I add an item and remove that will increate attack power I would get something like 1-1 + 21. And I don't want that if at all possible since I'm using a custom hero setup with 7 stats it would look strange with 1-1+21.

Why not use mana burn?

It has to be a permanent ability to ADD total mana.

do you mean an upgrade type that adds to mana?

An upgrade possibly, but (Dakan you know what I'm talking about with this, for the MMORPG) I need something that can add mana via triggers, or item or even temp skill. Anything. The same with damage/defence I don't want 1-1+30 damage or 0+12 armor, I want the base to be changed.

use the item add mana ability from the pendants, as for damage, as was said before, the code is there you just have to enable it and add the right files

the priest, sorc, DotC and other casters have the mana upgrade code as part of thier adept training, i belive there is 4 parts to thier upgrade (damage, mana regen, life, and mana) i remember seeing it there when i was looking the upgrades over, im not at my apaprtment right now, when i get back (later this afternoon) if you didnt find it ill post the code thing for it

I don't think you can sub in upgrade codes as item codes. You can give it a shot, but I doubt it.

Although, it would work if you created a new upgrade that upgraded mana by a set amount each time and had 255 upgrades. Each time the item was used you could increase the upgrade level by 1. Unless you're making some insane AoS map, I doubt that people will reach a point where they go beyond 255 upgrades.

The method described above would easily allow multiple items that could all upgrade mana by a different amount. You could either have a base amount and just increase the upgrade for larger amounts, or you could create a new upgrade for each amount. I'm unaware of the number of upgrade types a unit is allowed so I don't know how useful it would be.

Hope it helps.

as a item no, but i think i know what Fyre is tryin to achive and thats why i talked about the upgrade code, as far as items go there is the pendant of mana that adds to the max mana...

But can you permenantly add it? I mean without doing the item bug, if possible.

using the item bug you can, but just remember when removing a item from inventory, add a 0.01 sec wait before creating the new item other wise it will just fall to the floor

Bah, it can't be done using the pendant without using the item bug.

My understanding is that you want to create a Manual of Mana that works exactly like the Manual of Health. You can use my way, or figure out some other way. The mana code is rmnx btw.

every item used to work with the item bug, but i havnt done anything with it since maybe 1.02... so perhaps they fixed some of the stuff?
