Increase Level of Ability for Trained Unit

07-05-2005, 07:28 PM

Ok, I have these triggers...

Code:

BUpOn Red
    Events
        Unit - A unit Finishes an upgrade
    Conditions
        (Researched tech-type) Equal to War Training 
        ((Researching unit) is in (Units owned by Player 1 (Red))) Equal to True
    Actions
        Trigger - Turn on BUp Red <gen>

EDIT:This is the one that doesn't work, I tested the other one and it works fine.

If you are training units dont u NOT have to increase their skill levels in a way you would for heros? My guess is try making a "rank 2" version of your spell instead of having one spell with 2 o_O (however many u have) levels on it, and when you finish training a unit just make it remove Battle Experience * Rank 1 and Add Ability Battle Experience * Rank 2 on the trained unit. I dunno all the triggers I make have minimal effeciency, but by God they work!

lol

MrApples	They are passive abilities, not speels, and I can't do that, it would destroy the system I have

Anitarf	I don't know what could be wrong... try using set level of ability instead of increase? And use a better condition, you leak a unit group whenever these triggers run. Do a player comparison "(owner of (trained unit)) equal to player 1" instead. Actually, you really should try using more general solutions than one trigger for each player, you could do a single trigger that works for all players.

Although I don't see why your condition wouldn't work, try this instead:

Code:

(Owner of (Researching unit)) Equal to Player 1 (Red)

Basically All you are asking is to add a Level to each unit that is built after the upgrade am I correct? man it took me a while to get wut u wanted but I think I have the solution

Now instead of using finishes training, why not use "A unit enters Region(entire map)"

E:unit enters (entire map [Region])
C:N/A
A:For interger 1-(total number of players) do:
IF: [Player Comparison] Owner of triggering unit = [conversion](Player(integer A))
Then:Unit - Set Level of (Spell) for (Triggering unit) to ((Level of (Spell) for (Triggering unit)) + 1)

Repeat the "Then" part for all abilities, this will find the level of current ability and increase it.

Else:Do nothing

I don't know exactly what you are asking, there are many ways to do this, for instance if you are asking for the ability to up 1 level after your unit increase a level, there is a way to do it, well anyways the "Then" part I gave you will check the level of current ability and add 1 to it! hope it helps, if it doesn't elaborate in detail what needs to be done.

Btw, Battle Experience Army, thats very confusing, I thought u were lvling up the unit not the ability. The reason for me thinking this way is near the end of your request I read "Battle System" so now I think it's leveling the unit after every battle.

MrApples	Ok, I tested it with out the turn on and it worked fine so the problem is the turning on of the trigger, anyone know why this doesn't work?

MrApples	Bah, I accidently deleted my explanation on the battle experience system, oh well, just I'm trying to turn on the trigger by finishing an upgrade.

Try this, a single trigger that works for all players:

Code:

Events:
    A unit enters playable map area.
Conditions:
Actions:
    Unit - set level of (bonus damage skill) to ((current research level of (War training) for (owner of (entering unit))) + (level of (bonus damage skill) for (entering unit)))
    ...

Nice, only 1 trigger too, that cuts it down by 23

Vexorian	Is't the skeletal mastery upgrade that which allwos necromancers to summon skeletal mages, an upgrade that increases levels of abilities?

Indeed it is. Nevermind the useless trigger I posted above, just make the upgrade directly increase the ability.
