Rafael Br	Just make that your unit has 1 dmg, and add to it a modified searing arrows abillity, so if there is no mana it will deal only 1 dmg, wich is almost nothing.Another idea would be use triggers to block the attack.

Well I'm not sure on too much on how the system works but I do know how to stop a unit from attacking completely. You make the player allied with the enemy player (not the enemy player to the ally so the enemy can still attack) and then remove allied and/or friendly from the units target allowed. You use a trigger so when whatever you use (lumber/mana) reaches 0 you make the player allied to the enemy.

th15	Code: Event: Unit is attacked Condition: Real comparison- Attacking unit's mana less than 1.00 Action: Issue order with no target- Order attacknig unit to stop If you'd rather use unit custom value or somethng else, then change the condition. You'll have to write your own trigger/come up with your own method for reducing mana/ammo count. Personally I would do this using unit custom values.

Code:

Event:
Unit is attacked

Actions:
-If/then/else Multiple
(If)
Integer Comparison - (Charges remaining in (Item carried by (Attacking unit) of type "Lol liek ur swrd dmmy")) Equal to 0
(then)
Unit - Issue order with no target- Order attacking unit to stop
(else)
Item - Set charges remaining in (Item carried by (Attacking unit) of type "Ur swd agn") to (Arithmetic - (Charges remaining in (Item carried by (Attacking unit) of type "swd agn")) - 1)

And before you learn to use WE, which my six year old cousin can use, I suggest learning something he could do two years before that: spell.

Just remember what I said, it's not mine, it's the FPS mod. I don't know if that's exactly how they do it, but it'd work. I don't want to get credited for their work and have people breathing down my neck.
Oh, and do us all a favor and edit your quotes to show only exactly what you're responding to, it keeps topic size down and all.
