I'm sure this has been addressed before, but I still find myself mystified by how it's done.
I have a damage effect, and I want to have the "Damage Amount" value of the effect change via a trigger.
I think my confusion lies mostly in the syntax. I just want the plain version; what I would enter into the fields in the trigger editor for a Catalog Field Value Set.
Catalog is the data type of what ever your trying to get or set. If your trying to set or get and effect set catalog to effect. Entry is the ID of whatever your trying to change, for example if your trying to get or set something for a Hydralisk Den you would put HydraliskDen (The ID and name of things are 2 diffrent things, note how i didnt include a space between hydralisk and den in the ID). Field Path is the ID of the value you are trying to change. For example to change a units Max Life you would use LifeMax. You can get the ID of these fields in the data editor, just have "view raw data" on. You can turn it on by pressing Ctrl + D, or go to view> View raw data. If you dealing with an array like the behaviours on a unit its a bit diffrent, but i never dealt with arrays and catalogs yet so idk how to do it, but iv seen a tutorial somewhere that explains how. Also for some catalogs you cant change them, idk if this is a bug or not which may or may not have been fixed yet.
