Changing Unit Attack

[4Real]

Hello guys

Is it possible to change a Units Attack after getting an item?

For example:

Hero gets Sniper Rifle item - Range goes up, damage goes up buts speed down
Hero gets Mashine Gun item - Range goes to "normal", damage goes down, but speed goes up
etc.

f its possible, how?

Try Triggers, they can fix almost everything

Upgrades are permanent, thus it would only allow him to do it once.

Triggers

• Hero Weapen Trigger
• Events:
• Unit - <Your Hero> picks up <Your item>
• Conditions:
• Actions:
• Unit - Set attack speed to <Your speed>
• ...

Something like that

and plzzzzz use +rep if this helped you

Thx for the replies I tried with Upgrades and well, first it seemed to work.

It is possible for me, that when a Unit has an item and uses it, that attack rate, damage und range gets how i want it to. The problem, when hero drops or uses another weapon the upgrade should go to level 0, but it doens't and we says it isn't possible. Is there any possibility to get the upgrade from level 1 back to 0?
This is the code I am using:

• Assault Rifle get
  • Events
    • Unit - A unit Finishes casting an ability
  • Conditions
    • (Ability being cast) Equal to ItemUsageAssault
  • Actions
    • Player - Set the current research level of Flamethrower to 0 for (Owner of (Triggering unit))
    • Player - Set the current research level of Minigun to 0 for (Owner of (Triggering unit))
    • Player - Set the current research level of Shotgun to 0 for (Owner of (Triggering unit))
    • Player - Set the current research level of Sniper to 0 for (Owner of (Triggering unit))
    • Player - Set the current research level of Submachinegun to 0 for (Owner of (Triggering unit))
    • Player - Set the current research level of AssaultRifle to 1 for (Owner of (Triggering unit))
    • Unit - Remove Flamethrower from (Triggering unit)
    • Unit - Remove Minigun from (Triggering unit)
    • Unit - Remove Shotgun from (Triggering unit)
    • Unit - Remove Sniper from (Triggering unit)
    • Unit - Remove Submachinegun from (Triggering unit)
    • Unit - Add Assault Rifle to (Triggering unit)

Upgrades all have 1 level.

Just to explain: The Add/Remove ability is just for the weapon model to attach or remove from the unit model. I think the rest should be easy to understand (I hope ^^)

Hmm...
The Trigger you have does not work ?
Maybe it is possible to make a DeUpgrade for each Upgrade you use.
Somewhere you can say "Allow negative Integers"
Then you could make an Upgrade that puts Range and everything else down.
But im not sure if the "Negative Integers" work on Upgrades...

But its worth a try i think

Perhaps you could try using buffs like "Roar" (Druid of Claw) or "Terrifying Howl" (Pit Lord) which increase or decrease damage (if I remember correctly). As for range changing, you could try using Abilities like Searing Arrow, which can increase the range of the attack (sort of).

Use morph to change weapons.

Nice begging for +rep from someone that cant give +rep

Try using Orbs? Make your weapons base on orbs and add more passive skills to it to mod different stats e.i. damage, attack speed, movement speed, sight range etc...

well, the damage bonus is too easy. just use the "item damage bonus [x]. where x is the value of extra damage u want.

also the speed thing is an easy fix. but it's a 4 parter:
1. start the hero with a slower attack speed than any of the new weapon's attack speed.
2. give the hero a item attack speed bonus ability.
3. when he picks up a slower firing item use the trigger:
evnt: a unit aqcuires an item
cond: item type = x
act: remove ability (item attack speed bonus [x] from triggering unit.
4. when he drops the item make a similiar trigger but giving him the item speed bonus ability back.

the range increase/decrease is trickier. i tried the upgrade thing on my map too about 2 months ago and it didn't seem to work for me. once i researched a range upgrade i couldn't un-research it. so that was a problem. i gave up on the idea. but if you really want to you could try trigger dissabling first attack, and enabling a 2nd attack of the unit which picks up the item. but in this case u could only have a max of 2 different weapon ranges for any one guy. if it works, i'm not going to test it for u, good luck though.
