Is there anyway to accredit heroes that use triggered spells to kill other heroes or units? It's rather important that on my map the Hero casting the trigged spell recieves the bounty/credit for killing a unit or hero... but when they use a triggered spell to do so (i.e. a spell that uses a trigger to adminster damage) they recieve no credit... =`( any pointers? |

There is a way, but an even better way is to wait for the patch or download the beta. There is a new function called order unit to deal damage, and it is better than the set life of picked unit method currently available in just about every way. |

Is there any way I could figure out the current way? Or is it to restricting and bothersome to even attempt? Thankyou for the response. |

The current way would be to create dummy units for the owner of casting hero to do the damage, which is some processor work and, if you aren't careful, some memory leaks as well, + it also means some object editor work to make all the different dummy units or their abilities to ge the different effects at each level of the hero ability. |

I don't think "dummies" work either. I have U.V's swift attack spell, which uses a dummy version of a unit to inflict the damage and it doesn't accredit the hero with any gold/experiance etc. The new Unit - Damage is needed tits, best addition ever lol -- changed the dummies unit damage to this and its all cherry :D fuxing rox I rate this new action: out of 5 infernal roxx0rs LOL |

Dummy casters do work. If you knew how to use them efficiently then there should be no problem. Maybe UV's swift attack spell doesn't exactly follow the steps to do dmg using dummies, or the unit bounty is not on. Just make sure bounty is on. GL, ![]() |
