[Trigger] Drop Trigger

[Bwathke]

OK, my trigger is where they pick up a item and a special effect attaches to target area etc.


Actions-
Unit - Unit picks up an item

Conditions-
Item-type equal to Longsword
Unit-type (triggering unit) equal to Warrior

Actions-
Special Effect - Attach special effect to right hand of (triggering unit) equal to war3imported\Longsword.mdx

That all works but how do I make it he drops the item and the special effect dissapears?

 

[Eleandor]

Think or search...

Events: Unit - unit loses item
Conditions: hope you can figure out those
Actions:
Special effect - destroy special effect perhaps?

Also consider just making a passive item ability that uses the LongSword model as effect. You won't need any triggers.

 

[Bwathke]

Yea but the destroy item effect dosent have where you can say destroy effect on right hand or on point theres only last created effect

 

[Eleandor]

Not ability, effect.

You'll have to store the last created effect in a variable, which can then be removed when needed.

 

[Bwathke]

Yea thats what someone else said but I dont get how to do that? (Oh I ment to say effect not ability sorry)

 

[Eleandor]

Not very easy to do in GUI. So my suggestion is to simply use passive abilities on items.

 

[Bwathke]

Yes how do I do that if its not to much trouble for me to ask sorry I'm not very good at triggers.

hi Bwathke, i think what you should do is this.

1)make an item called longsword ( which you have already done)
2)Go to ability and make a new custom ability
3)select ability from items ( devoution arua)
4)change arua stats to 0 armor, effect range 0, for buffs u may choose to just delete it.
5)now u should see a area called target attach point
6) change the target to your sword model
7) change string to hand,left
8) rename your ability to Longsword effect
9) go back to your long sword item, and add longsword effect ability to the item

10) you are now finished xD when you drop the item, the effect will disappear as well!

however anyone can equip this item.

if you want to do it by triggers so only your swordman can equip then do this method

Actions-
Unit - Unit picks up an item

Conditions-
Item-type equal to Longsword
Unit-type (triggering unit) equal to Warrior

Actions-
setvariable - longsword to last created special effectSpecial Effect - Attach special effect to right hand of (triggering unit) equal to war3imported\Longsword.mdx

Action- a unit looses an item
conditions
item type equals to Longsword

Action
destory - longsword effect.

longsword is the variable you saved in variable before
