Hello yet again!
I've got another question, about the toggle_team/charm script flags
for effects...
So I have this point.
point
10
|flags
description Disease.
hidden
at_zero=zombify
ordinal=1
And the effect is:
Effect
10 // parser version
|flags
description A unit dies and becomes a zombie.
unit
announce
|script_flags
toggle_to_user_team
transform_into zombie
I know why the team toggling doesn't work, but is there a way to code
a flag so that whoever bites (or whatever else removes disease
poiknts) the original unit will convert the new unit to their team
when the disease points hit 0?
I'd set it to just toggle to team 2, but there are a few instances
where there are actually good zombies, so that wouldn't always work
out for me...
