"Count Items of Type Carried by Hero" Condition

[Marshmalo]

I need something that detects when a hero has 2 of the same item and drops one of them.

I have an item that gives permanent invisibility, only problem is when a hero gets two of these he comes perma PERMA invisibility. Can not be detected even when attacking, this is obviously easily exploitable. So how can I limit heroes to only 1 type of this item?

A "Count Items of Type Carried by Hero" integer condition would be ideal but I cant see anything like that!

when a hero picks up an item loop through the inventory an whenever theres an ite m of that item set an integer value +1. at the end check whether the integer value is 2 or more and if so drop the item picked up.

errrm how I do that? :S

This is what I got so far but i dont know how to "loop through an inventory"?

try this its easier.

    • Unit - A unit Acquires an item

    • For each (Integer A) from 1 to 6, do (Actions)
      • Loop - Actions

          • If - Conditions
            • (Item-type of (Item being manipulated)) Equal to (Item-type of (Item carried by (Hero manipulating item) in slot (Integer A)))
          • Then - Actions
            • Hero - Drop (Item being manipulated) from (Hero manipulating item)
          • Else - Actions

Its work but abit too well! It drops even when hero dosnt have any other items of that type on him. What am I doing wrong? Sorry I'm so rubbish with triggers.

1. you have to do the following :

-you add a integer variable before the integer A loop and set it to 0
-on the then actions you set the integer value to (integer value +1)
-then you add the action you have in then at the moment in another if/then/else inside of the then action but after the set of the integer value
-to the if of this if/then/else you check whether the integer value is equal or higher than 2
-to the then actions you add your actions (even though i dont understand the player group and the wait but...)


and thats it ;D

p.s. in the way chaosy posted it even recognizes the item thats is picked up so there is this item everytime and so the item is dropped automatically.

*confusion*

So is Chaosys way a completely different way or do I need to add what you said to Chaosys trigger? So do I need to do a separate trigger and integer variable for every hero ingame?

 

[claptomanic]

just add what i said to chaosys trigger ^^ his has just the problem that it recognizes the item that is picked up and compares it to itself so it drops it everytime....so and to avoid that you have to add what i said ^^

 

[Marshmalo]

I don't understand what you wrote though, sorry I'm not very good with advanced triggering like this. Would you be able to show me an example with the trigger tags please? Then i can see exactly what I need to do

 

[claptomanic]

wait a mom ill do an example

This should work. ^^
