status invulnerable

[KanoFromMK]

there is a scenario named Pebbles_in_the_Flood
from The_South_Guard campaign
there are such enemies with invulnerable status
where is this status defined? how can i use it in my campaigns or to attach this status to my created units

I can't help you more ^^"

try:

Code: Select all

[unit]
    [status]
        invulnerable=yes
    [/status]
[/unit]

[KanoFromMK]

try:

Code: Select all

[unit]
    [status]
        invulnerable=yes
    [/status]
[/unit]

this by itself does not work
i suppose, bc its a status, it starts only with the scenario, and i cant set a status to a unit hoping it will get this status everytime
thats why i need to understand where is this status defined, like where the game sees this and understands what it means?
where are all statuses defined?

[Ravana]

There is no such thing as defined status. All legal WML keys are also valid status names.

[KanoFromMK]

but there must be a way to set a status as default to a unit_type created by me
how can AI act accordingly if it does not know what invulnerable means? and if it does know then somewhere in the files must be a in code description of what this status does
i refuse to believe it is impossible to know)

I'm not entirely sure what you are trying to do, but maybe this will give you a hint. I don't think it's quite what you want, but it might be close enough to get you moving. Of course, you'd need an advance event if you actually went this route.

Code: Select all

    [event]
        name=prerecruit
        first_time_only=no
        [filter]
            side=2
        [/filter]
        [if]
            [variable]
                name=unit.type
                equals=Mage of Light
            [/variable]
            [then]
                {VARIABLE unit.status.invulnerable yes}
                [unstore_unit]
                    variable=unit
                    find_vacant=no
                [/unstore_unit]
            [/then]
        [/if]
    [/event]

thats too heavy for me) sorry
i dropped the idea of implementing it in a scenario, now im merely interested in what does Invulnerability do exactly
like does it decrease the chance of being hit to 0 or decrease the chance of the enemy's weapon to hit to 0. How does it work... god knows, and wesnoth developers

[KanoFromMK]

"I'm not entirely sure what you are trying to do"

Now what im trying to do is create a character that has a trait, or something, that gives him invulnerable status. You create this unit through debug in any scenario and it has this status, that works like in Pebbles_in_the_Flood.
This trait should be by default, you should be able to recall it in the next scenario with this status still available, still working

[KanoFromMK]

I thought im probably asking too much, thats why my question from the start was how does invulnerable status work

[KanoFromMK]

Code: Select all

[defense]
            shallow_water=0
            reef=0
            swamp_water=0
            flat=0
            sand=0
            forest=0
            hills=0
            mountains=0
            village=0
            castle=0
            cave=0
            frozen=0
            fungus=0
[/defense]

gives the same effect, except magical attacks that overwrite the defence capabilities and give the same minimum 70%

alas i couldnt find out how invulnerable works, but thanks to you and all good people here this works unclear how but works, thank you again
btw how can i put this post in closed? since i found the answer

[Celtic_Minstrel]

Regarding how invulnerable works, it just forces the hit chance to zero.
