Mana Detection Help

Hi i have a problem, the problem is:
im making a dbz type map for me and my friends. Normally when you go super saiyan, in a dbz map. You would use gold to stay super saiyan(in most maps)
But i want it to be so that you use your mana instead and it works good. Expect that i cant detect if a units mana drops below 100?
Just so you know you select hero at start you dont start out with a hero so that i can use Select Unit to detect the mana so plz help!
well i have made 1 solution already but the problem is that im using a pereodic time event so that the trigger firest every 1.50 second and that will cause abit lag. Not sure how much thought.

Thx in advance

1.5 second periodic trigger means absolutely no lag whatsoever, unless you do some crazy looping, and I mean really crazy, which I assume you are not doing. As long as you are not memory-leaking, periodic events are nothing to worry about.

If u want ur hero drain out mana in super mod then just use immolation and set damage to 0 go to buff and delete all effect and make mana drain per second as u wish it the simple way to do isn't it

i might use the immolation. And also, yeah it isnt any crazy loops or if/then/else's wich i use so thx alot both of you
Gave you both reputation

Heres my example it works out like the 1 in TSR 2

Trigger (Super Saiyan Activate)

Event - A player (Equal 2 red) types Ss(Super Saiyan) As an exact match

Conditions - Triggering unit - Equal to Goku(or whoever u like)

Actions -

Add ability(ITEM ABILITY!!!!) - Super saiyan health for unit -goku

Add ability(same as up there) - Super saiyan Stat bonus for unit -Goku

Add ability(same as up there) - Super Saiyan Armor Bonus for unit -goku

Add ability(same as up there) - Super Saiyan Speed bonus for unit -goku
Of course u have 2 make thoose abilitys in the ability creator first!

(Trigger Super saiyan drain) :
Event : Timer (Something with the time) Then u can make it each sec. or each 3rd sec or what u like

Then create the action (If / Then / ELSE)

It will write : If all conditions are true do then do (then actions) otherwise do (else actions)

Condition : Unit (Goku) Has ability : Super saiyan health (equal to true)
Condition : Unit (Goku) Has ability : Super saiyan Armor bonus (equal to true)
Condition : Unit (Goku) Has ability : Super saiyan speed bonus (Equal to true)
Condition : Unit (Goku) Has ability : Super Saiyan Health bonus (Equal to true)
(the conditions have 2 be in the If /then / else trigger!)

Then Actions : Unit - Mana Amount (or something like that) drain X mana



I dont remember how me and Doctor-pepper made the revert trigger cause im writing this from work but if u want help / help with map just add me on msn my mail is [email protected] i will be able 2 help u from home but i hope u could use my advice

What you wrote doesn't even work, because the "chat string" event gives you no "triggering unit".

i noticed that too but well thx for trying to help. But i will stick to the old item method. I mean where yuo get a item wich hold all the stats.

If you can do that, you can also easily do the add-ability-method. Just whenever you would add the item, you add the abilities instead, and whenever you would remove the item, you remove the abilities. It's a better solution, as all of these item-based abilities (health/stat/armor/speed bonuses) don't leave an icon.

Omfg Anitarf i was programming the triggers for the saiyan race 2 so u stfu ok ?! as i wrote i was at work so i cant remember it all from there u c !? the
