Is it possible to change HP by script?

[Optimus Prime]

Hi

is it possible, to change the MaxDamage value by scripting? So for example after some time the unit gets more HP or so. If yes, how can i do that?

[PauloMorfeo]

Since units like the Annihilator enable a damage absorption when closed, it is possible because 50% damage absorption is the same as a unit with doubled life.

Still, there may be a better solution since it will continue to show the unit has having x HP which would be missleading.

It is possible, see here.

That only works for a previous version of Spring, I believe

If you read the comments below, its now been merged with the main Spring build for quite some time. So it should work without any modification.

cool! Thank you very much :)
Is there anywhere a database for the methods and parameters you can use by standard for the scripts?
So i wouldnt need to ask here when i have a question...

Edit: Another question: How can i read the maxDamage value? I mean not in % but a real number.. for example 4938 HP?
I think request Health gets only the % value.

No, that change has not made its way into the official Spring release yet. And it's only for the current hp, not the max hp.

And yeah, just use damagemodifier=0.2; in the FBI and set ARMORED to TRUE; in the script to gives x5 hp to your unit (althought that's the TA way, I have not checked in Spring).

Ok. But think of this future... you could make evolving ships and experience levels which would add more weapons and even change the model of the ship.
I wanted to make the commanders gain extra weapons and hullparts when reaching a fixed exp :)
