Return Values

The following return values are explicitly defined for this trigger:

Return Value Description
1 Prevents the item from being damaged.


Notes

Damage function in items doesn't mean the amount of hitpoints receiving but a chance to receive 1 point of damage, so by default Sphere is using this formula to calc the chace of receive damage:

local.success = <eval <MaxHits>*16>
if (<r<local.success>> > damage)
    return 1// and block the damage
endif

So if a random number between 1 and MaxHits*16 is higher than the damage dealt, there's no damage.

In a PickAxe with 45 Hits it will mean that a number higher than 720 (45*16) have to be given to force one point of damage.

Here's a damage formula to force damage:

damage=<eval <maxhits>*16>,<src>,dam_physical
