Disable Player from Purchasing Item

[Kahiera]

is there any way to prevent a player from purchasing an item to the point where it doesn't even show up in the shop for them? similar to the "Enable/Disable Construction of Unit for Player" action

Check out:

• The Trigger
  • Actions
    • Natural Buildings - Remove item from shop

And you have to add Sell Item ability to the shop.

Actually the shops have an ability : sell items.You can modify this ability in object editor and fix the range where your hero wants to buy the item.
I hope i understood what you want right.

But this'll do it for all players.

I'd say GetLocalPlayer, but it may cause desyncs.

You can make a trigger to enable this only for 1 player.

Make Item a Dummy unit.
Then do:

• OnlyOneItem
  • Events
    • Unit - A unit Sells a unit
  • Conditions
    • (Unit-type of (Sold unit)) Equal to Dummy Unit (Item)
  • Actions
    • Unit - Remove (Sold unit) from the game
    • Hero - Create - The Item - and give it to (Buying unit)
    • Player - Make Dummy Unit (Item) Unavailable for training/construction by (Owner of (Buying unit))

Tada, no problem anymore.
