Chance to hit

[Assasin]

Is there a way to modify the units chance to hit? Kinda like magical, but it only adds a boost and doesn't set it to 70%

There is no way to do this inside a unit definition. However, you can, by complex and incredibly inconvenient WML, not to mention that it will not display properly, do it in a scenario.

hmm..then how do I access the abilities? Are the instructions somewhere on wiki?

You can add specials to an existing attack:

Effects are granted through objects, so you can grant an invisible object to a unit that causes the effect:

Let's see here...

Code: Select all

[event]
name=turn 2

[object]
	[filter]
	description=Jo Mama
	[/filter]
	[effect]
		apply_to=attack
		range=short
		set_special=magical
	[/effect]
	duration=level
	silent=yes
[/object]
[/event]

Not too sure if this would do the trick, but it's a starting point. I don't know under what conditions you want to change the CTH. There are examples in httt for giving objects to units.

That's kinda like what I was talking about, except I wanted to add a 10% boost. A chance to hit modifier like I'm talking about would be a usefull tool to have in scenarios.

Code: Select all

[event]
name=attack
[store_unit]
[filter]
x=$x2
y=$y2
[/filter]
variable=victim
[/store_unit]
[if]
[variable]
name=victim.variables.old_type
not_equals=none
[/variable]
[then]
{VARIABLE_OP victim.type to_variable victim.variables.old_type}
{VARIABLE victim.variables.old_type none}
[unstore_unit]
variable=victim
[/unstore_unit]
[/then]
[/if]
[/event]

[event]
name=attack
[filter]
description=bonused_unit
[/filter]
[store_unit]
[filter]
x=$x2
y=$y2
[/filter]
variable=victim
[/store_unit]
{VARIABLE_OP victim.variables.old_type to_variable victim.type}
{VARIABLE_OP victim.type format ($victim.type| with less defense)}
[unstore_unit]
variable=victim
[/unstore_unit]
[/event]

There. Provided you have a copy of each and every unit definition with modified defense modifiers, that should work.

thanks for the help guys, I really appreciate it.
