I was hoping someone might be able to explain some of the properties for a splash tower. These all may or may not be for splash.

Combat Attack - Area of Effect (Full Damage)
Combat Attack - Area of Effect (Medium Damage)
Combat Attack - Area of Effect (Small Damage)
Combat Attack - Factor Medium
Combat Attack - Factor Small
Combat Attack - Damage Spill Distance
Combat Attack - Damage Spill Radius


Any explanation would be great, even if they are not all for splash towers. Thanks a ton!

http://world-editor-tutorials.thehel...uniteditor.php is a good reference.

Basically the first 5 you listed do your normal splash damage and I think they are pretty self-explanatory. The spill ones are for doing damage in a line with the missile-line type attack and I think it might need to be used in conjunction with an ability and/or upgrade like storm hammers. The distance would be the length of the line and the radius would be its fatness I suppose.

Combat Attack - Area of Effect (Full Damage)
The area around the attack point where units will take full damage. (The unit's attack
Combat Attack - Area of Effect (Medium Damage)
The area around the attack point where units will take medium damage (factor medium X units attack), the factor should be lower than 1, or else units will take more damagefrom the splash)
Combat Attack - Area of Effect (Small Damage)
The area around the attack point where the units will take small damage (Factor small x attacking units' attack), etc etc
Combat Attack - Factor Medium
What the damage of the attacking unit s multiplied by, then damages all units in the medium damage AoE.
Combat Attack - Factor Small
What the damage of teh attacking unit is multiplied by, then damages all units in the small damage AoE.
Combat Attack - Damage Spill Distance
How far the unit's damage will spill (go foward in a straight line, dealing damage to units in that line), if its attack it set to missile (line)
Combat Attack - Damage Spill Radius
The width of the line


...I went overboard, didnt I?
