I want to make an aura (basing it off of Aura of Blight) that suspends the duration decay of skeletons. When the skeleton is in range of the aura, the trigger will stop their duration from decreasing, but when they leave the range of the aura, the duration resumes to decrease. Does anyone know how to trigger this? Thanks. |

Code:
Event:
Every 2 seconds
Action:
Pick every unit in unit group [All units of type Skeleton]
loop:
If-then-else:
Condition: Picked unit has SkeletalAura Buff = true
Then: Pause expiration timer for picked unit
Else: Unpause expiration timer for picked unitP.S. Burnin, don't post until you actually have something to add, no one cares if a problem puzzles you, they just need an answer. |

I have a question about that trigger. Is the initial action a "Pick every unit of group and do multiple actions"? I couldln't make it loop under a single action trigger. Thanks. |

I can't get the trigger to work. I Figured it was the Aura of Blight buff at first, b/c it didn't seem to be effecting anyone for some reason (I did edit it so that it did give some regen). So, I used an edited Unholy Aura and Unholy Aura Buff. The move and buff are called "Aura of Blight (edit)". It's still not working :( Here's the trigger so far: Quote:
Anyone know what I'm doing wrong? Thanks. |

There's no triggering unit. |

Isn't that covered in the Actions,,w/ pick every unit (Skeletal Warrior/Archer)? |

Triggering unit refers to the unit who set of the trigger. Since there is no such event, there's no such thing as a triggering unit for the trigger either. |

well, if you want to target the units who were picked in "pick every unit in unit ground and do actions" you have to use "picked unit" |

I changed it to ‘picked unit', but I'm still having trouble. I tried out the skill, and it works such that it halts skeletal decay, but it oddly changes the timer all the way down to 0 and keeps it there. It even stays there after the skeleton leaves the range of the aura, effectively making it last forever (until it dies somehow). Maybe I did something wrong again in the trigger, so here's what I currently have below: Quote:

Hmm, i tried and it seems that the pause unit expiration trigger really does mess things up, I don't have an easy way that you can fix it. You'll probably just have to give skellies a negative regen and have the skeletal aura coutneract that. |

Thanks. Would you know how to go about doing that? I'm a little clueless :( |

You would have a trigger. Code:
Events -Every 1.00 Seconds Conditions Actions -Pick Every (Skeleton Warrior) in (Playable Map Area) and do Actions -Loop Actions -Unit - Set Property (Set HitPoints of (Picked Unit) to ((Hit Points) of (Picked Unit) - 1) Then you would make the aura a regen aura that gives out 1 hp per second. |

Nah, no need for triggers. Just set the skellie's default regen rate to -1.00 and regen condition to always. The aura will give +1 regen to only skellies (make the aura target only summoned player units) |
