I've been working on this for hours now. i am trying to figure out if there is a way to count the number of items owned by a unit.. not the charges. the amount of individual items.

the only way i've been able to figure out is dropping the items from the hero and then doing a pick every item in playable map area.. then giving it back to the hero but i dont like the result because i need this check performed every single time the hero attacks.. and it's a pain if item slot swapping mid-attack.

there has got to be a way to simply count how many of that type is owned.

or maybe even some way to perform an item slot check in a loop where each time conditions check the type of item i could have a var +1 itself.

so far this is what i got and i dont like it.

here is it

Not sure about the config of the actions but this should look like that:

Events:
- something happen(I don't know what you want for an event)

Conditions:
- Hero has item in inventory slot 1 or 2 or 3 or 4 or 5 or 6

Actions:
-Set variable(integer) = number of items carried by hero
- If-Then-Else:
-If - Hero has 1 item
-Then - something
-Else - If-Then-Else:
-If - Hero has 2 items
-Then - Something
-Else - If-Then-Else:
bla bla bla....

u know

Much easier:

Code:
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-type of (Item carried by <Unit> in slot (Integer A))) Equal to <Item-type>
            Then - Actions
                 Set ItemNum = (ItemNum + 1)
            Else - Actions
