change and increase item ability

[Benpai]

hi,

is it possible to change the stats or add an ability of an item with a Trigger?
I want, that a Hero is able to buy a base item with like +1 int and +2 str and if he buys a dummy foliant the stats of this item should be changing to +2 int and +4 str.
I was trying to do it with this, but it wont work

• Test
  • Events
    • Unit - A unit Sells an item (from shop)
  • Conditions
  • Actions
    • If (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions)
      • If - Conditions
        • And - All (Conditions) are true
          • Conditions
            • (Item-type of (Sold Item)) Equal to Cape of Mistweaver +1
            • (Item-type of (Item carried by (Buying unit) of type Cape of Mistweaver (Level 1))) Equal to Cape of Mistweaver (Level 1)
      • Then - Actions
        • Hero - Drop (Item carried by (Buying unit) of type Cape of Mistweaver (Level 1)) from (Buying unit).
        • Item - For Item: (Last dropped item), Add Ability: Ge: Str (+1)
        • Item - Set Name of (Last dropped item) to Cape of Mistweaver (Level 2)
        • Item - Set Tooltip of (Last dropped item) to ...new tooltip...
        • Set VariableSet Int_Test = (Int_Test + 1)
        • Ability - Set Ability: (Item: (Last dropped item)'s Ability with Ability Code: Ge: int (+3))'s Integer Level Field: Intelligence Bonus ('Iint') of Level: 0 to Int_Test
        • Hero - Give (Last dropped item) to (Buying unit)
      • Else - Actions

In this trigger the str is not added, the int is not changing and the text is also not changing.
I have tryed it with dropping the item and just changing the stats of the item in the inventory of the Hero.
I now i could just create a simular item to the base item and if he buyes the dummy foliant take the old item and add a new one. But that would too much work to do...creating hundrets of items and more abilities.

I'm not very into in the lasts versions, but I know you have these functions:

• Item - For Item: (Last created item), Add Ability: "Something"
• Item - For Item: (Last created item), Remove Ability: "Something"

 

[Benpai]

that is what i did with this:

• Item - For Item: (Last dropped item), Add Ability: Ge: Str (+1)

that is what i did with this:

• Item - For Item: (Last dropped item), Add Ability: Ge: Str (+1)

Oh sorry I didn't see it, but why did you ask this?

is it possible to change the stats or add an ability of an item with a Trigger?

, but now seeing better the trigger, what is this condition?

• (Item-type of (Item carried by (Buying unit) of type Cape of Mistweaver (Level 1))) Equal to Cape of Mistweaver (Level 1)

Did you know if the trigger even run? Display a text to see if is running.

 

[Benpai]

yes it is running through i have tryed it with a text output.

and yes this trigger exist, but it is not working like i am thinking of. If i have the item in my inventory and change the ability of this item, nothing will happen. So i dropped the item and change the ability than, but this is also not working.

One more thing (because I don't know what is happening), do you know the tooltip only is visible when you buy the item? (Is basically the name), if you wanna change the description you should change the extended tooltip and the description.

Thanks i will change it,
but i still dont know why this is not working

• Item - For Item: (Last dropped item), Add Ability: Ge: Str (+1)

or this

• Ability - Set Ability: (Item: (Last dropped item)'s Ability with Ability Code: Ge: int (+3))'s Integer Level Field: Intelligence Bonus ('Iint') of Level: 0 to Int_Test

am i doing something wrong?
