[Question] Im having trouble with a new ability

[Masked Indominus]

I am very new to scripting for pokemon essentials so i need help
Basically Im trying to make an ability, called carnivore so that it allows biting moves to act like giga drain but im getting weird results like in this clip

Is there anyway to get it to work so that biting moves act exactly like giga drain under this ability?

This is the script im using:
Battle::AbilityEffects::DamageCalcFromUser.add(:CARNIVORE,
proc { |ability, user, target, move, mults, baseDmg, type|
if move.bitingMove?

original_target_hp = target.hp


damage_dealt = target.pbReduceHP(baseDmg, false)


target.pbFaint if target.hp <= 0


hp_restored = original_target_hp - target.hp


user.pbRecoverHP(hp_restored) if hp_restored > 0
end
}
)

I believe your issue stems from the fact that your essentially dealing damage and healing in the code where you're supposed to be affecting how much damage your attack is doing. So right off the bat, I would change DamageCalcFromUser to OnDealingHit. Next, you need to calculate how much damage is dealt, not deal damage within the code itself. Shell Bell code helps here. Finally, you need to restore half the damage dealt. Try out this code.

Battle::AbilityEffects::OnDealingHit.add(:CARNIVORE,
proc { |ability, user, target, move, battle|
next if !move.bitingMove?
next if !user.canHeal?
totalDamage = target.damageState.totalHPLost
battle.pbShowAbilitySplash(user)
amt = (totalDamage / 2).floor
user.pbRecoverHPFromDrain(amt,target)
battle.pbHideAbilitySplash(user)
}
)
