Setting max Mp and Hp

[em100181]

wow i am amazed that none of you know jass well enough to do this.

ive only hacked one map but as part of my cheatpack i have -hp = restore full health and -mp = restore full MP, on targetted unit.

can also of course be done just on hero but if hero is selected anyway its better to do a universal target-heal (can be useful to heal town guards or something else crazy, like an NPC who cant die or you fail a quest etc)

anyway here's the very, very, simple code in jass...ive chopped out only the variables that are needed and the altered it just for your exact purpose...this function out of my main cheat function is of course much bigger, with a big if-elseif block to check every -<cheat> command that i put in there.

Code: Select all

local player p=GetTriggerPlayer()
local group g=CreateGroup()
local string s=GetEventPlayerChatString()
local unit u
call GroupEnumUnitsSelected(g,p,null)
loop
set u=FirstOfGroup(g)
exitwhen u==null
if SubString(s,0,3)=="-hp" then
call SetUnitLifePercentBJ(u,100)
elseif SubString(s,0,3)=="-mp" then
call SetUnitManaPercentBJ(u,100)
endif
call GroupRemoveUnit(g,u)
endloop
call DestroyGroup(g)

if you wanted your -hp or -mp function to accept a variable on what % of life you want to set the person at, or a raw #, you can change it....if youre using percents, then the percent functions of course and if you want to be able to accept a variable and set the persons life exactly to that #, then you have to use...

Code: Select all

function SetUnitLifeBJ takes unit whichUnit, real newValue returns nothing

and parsing in the variable is done as always...
theres a few functions for nearly everything.
SetUnitLifeBJ is just a function that ends up calling SetUnitState, anyway...just a wrapper function, but its part of the library, so...

I already know how to set it to a percentage... I want to know how to change the
max hp and mp... >.>

Both of those snippets can change a unit's max HP and such.

Okay just need a little more help...

Okay so I got that inserted at like the top of the functions and this in my chat function

if SubString(s,0,4)=="-set"then
call SetUnitMaxState(u,UNIT_STATE_MAX_LIFE,S2I(SubString(s,5,10)))

I got it under the select unit part (I don't know what else to call it)
