I'm making a defense map and I'm trying to make a "Salvage" ability for my towers. I've successfully copied the Bunker's Salvage ability and got it working. However, the ability refunds a flat 100 minerals without actually referencing the Bunker's cost.
Is there a way to refund some fraction of the casting unit's cost instead of just a flat amount? I'd prefer to keep it in the data editor, but I'll make a trigger for it if someone can explain how to accomplish this.
Secondly, I'm using a buff that indicates the tint of its unit and triggers an event that sets the tint of the unit (and provides some combat modifiers). The icon for my buff is plain white, but I'd like to be able to either tint the icon itself to the appropriate color or simply create a new colored version of the icon. I'm aware that you can make the buff appear green, red, or white based on its Alignment field, but I need a wider palette of colors for my buffs.
Is there some way that you can tint an icon's color or some simple way to create a new copy of the icon that's simply recolored?
