animations depending on item class

[part207]

is there a way to check if the unit has an item class in ANY slot (without having to check each slot individually)? heres what im using. are there any major errors with this?

• bow
  • Events
    • Unit - A unit Is attacked
  • Conditions
    • (Attacking unit) Equal to Player_Unit
    • (Item-class of (Item carried by (Attacking unit) in slot 1)) Equal to Powerup
  • Actions
    • Animation - Play (Attacking unit)'s attack lumber animation

No, but I guess you have 6 triggers of this type, one for each slot.

You can use a

For each integer A from 1 to 6 do:
If (Item-Class of (Item Carrier by (Attacking Unit) in slot (Integer A)) Equal to PowerUp
Then blah blah...

It depends on how many of these you have, If you have say 5+ of these you would need to look for more optimum methods of checking and creating an animation. But if you only have a few of these, you can nest them inside of if's like this.

• Test
  • Events
    • Unit - A unit Is attacked
  • Conditions
    • (Attacking unit) Equal to Player_Unit
  • Actions
    • For each (Integer A) from 1 to 6, do (Actions)
      • Loop - Actions
        • If (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions)
          • If - Conditions
            • (Item-class of (Item carried by (Attacking Unit) in slot (Integer A)) Equal to Powerup
          • Then - Actions
            • Animation - Play (Last created unit)'s attack lumber animation
          • Else - Actions
            • If (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions)
              • If - Conditions
                • (Item-class of (Item carried by (Attacking Unit) in slot (Integer A)) Equal to OtherItem
              • Then - Actions
                • Animation - Play (Last created unit)'s other animation
              • Else - Actions

Use Unit acquires an item event for example, not Unit is attacked. Use Animation - Add animation tag to unit.

maker, would it remove the animation tag if the were to lose the item? i dont want the unit shooting a bow when it has no bow equipt. as i dont want it 2 handed swinging with a dagger and mace.

You can remove/change the animation tag when you lose items.

Is there a way I can do it all in 1 trigger? Gui pref

 

[khamarr3524]

Doing it all in one trigger in GUI is more of a challenge o.o but I guess you could, just be using a lot of custom script. I'm not certain if you can check for TriggeringEvent, but I'll check for you.

 

[Maker]

I'm not certain if you can check for TriggeringEvent, but I'll check for you.

GetHandleId(GetTriggerEventId())

Acquire an item = 49
Lose an item = 48
