Hmm... A unit is attacked Attacking unit = XXX do remove XXX lumber for owner of attacking unit else do nothing Attacking unit = XXX do set AmmoXXX = AmmoXXX - (Same as lumber) else do nothing Add one for all the units Now when you change weapons... You'll have to use the AmmoXXX, the XXX represents your weapon names... When you switch weapon, set the wood to whatever AmmoName you want to use... That's a start, I would type up the whole thing for you, but I'm too lazy... Maybe later. Regards Dead-Inside |

All units would use the same ammo? A way to do this would be to give the unit the Cargo Hold (Orc Burrow) and Load (Orc Burrow) abilities. To enable attack, create a peon and load it. To disable, unload the Peon and remove it. I think a better way would be to use mana as ammo so all the units don't die at the same time. Use Moon Wells to replenish. |

No, you add the abilities to your ammo-using unit. >ok i have tryed to start making the trigger but >when i try and get a unit is attacked i can only >get no unit is attacked or some variable stuff i >dont understand. Event Response - Attacking Unit Another way to get the unit to stop attacking is to modify Cripple so that it reduces 100% of attack damage and 100% attack speed and place this debuff on the unit. |

Events: Player Properties - (Player's) current lumber becomes equal to zero Actions: Unit Group - Pick every unit in units belonging to triggering player... |

Omg, you n00bs... You need to replace it with a DUMMY unit when you run out of ammo... look in THIS thread. Regards Dead-Inside |

Liiike? Turn of the attack? Alternativly you could set aquisition range to 0, that's a though... |
